Wine pairing is much more about the way you cook a dish and the sauce you serve with it than it is about the basic ingredient and so it proved with this week’s match at the recently opened Brackenbury.

Finally made it to @corkagebath for deep-fried pig’s head, charred hispi cabbage and 7 Fuentes. Really great neighbourhood wine bar. Loved it. (Paid for our food but drinks were compd). . . . #menu #foodandwine wine #winebar #pork #cabbage #7fuentes #bathI absolutely can’t wait to make these grilled halloumi flatbreads with preserved lemon and barberry salsa from @sabrinaghayour’s brilliant new book Bazaar. Which is devoted to veggies but not so you’d notice: it just seems a great selection of recipes. Perfect for Easter Monday I reckon. For the recipe click the link in my bio. #recipeoftheweek. . . . #halloumi #cheese #flatbreads #salsa #Bazaar #sabrinaghayour #foodphotography #foodstyling #regram @kriskirkham #instafood #foodstagram #vegetarianWell that’s it for this year. I feel so privileged to have been able to be here in Malaga for this historic, colourful and deeply moving experience. Yet another reason to love Spain and the Spanish. So thankyou @thaneeprince for suggesting it and for sharing your inside knowledge. And if you haven’t been add it to your bucket list. (It’s on till the rest of the week obvs just that I’m leaving today). . . . #malaga #semanasanta #holyweek #travelArroz caldoso aka ‘soupy rice’ at Marisquera los Delhunes. (Like a rather wet paella) Lovely bustling restaurant just off the beach. Rammed with locals. #malaga . . . #fish #seafood #rice #arroz #spanishfood Follow on Instagram
