We Brits don't need much encouragement to eat pies. But which is the better match - wine or beer?

Bristol PSA. Carbonara of dreams @bombolonibristol last night - just the right amount of creamy, eggy cheesiness + fabulously crispy guanciale. Good to have you back and see you so busy 😘 . . . #bomboloni #bristol #pasta #carbonara #guanciale #spaghetti #eatlocal #gloucesterroadAnd now for something completely different, gin-lovers. Not so much for what’s IN the gin but what Heston (it would be Heston, wouldn’t it?) recommends you float ON it! And it’s really surprisingly delicious. Click the link in my bio to find out more. (Yes, flagrant clickbait, I *know*!) You can buy it from @waitroseandpartners but this isn’t a sponsored post. Though I was sent it as a press sample, just so you know . . . #gin #ginandtonic #botanicals #oliveoil #hestonblumenthal #waitrose #notsponsored #presssampleI can’t believe how many good recipes there are in @sabrinaghayour’s Simply. Here’s yet another one - the maast-o-esfenaj or spinach and yoghurt with walnuts I made to go with the tepsi kebap that everyone’s making - and yes, I did too just forgot to take a picture of it 🙄. As the name of the book suggests the food is simple but so much more flavourful and interesting than you normally find with easy recipes. You’ll want it even if you’ve got her other books. (This was half the quantity in the recipe btw) . . . #yoghurt #spinach #walnuts #persianfood #iranianfood #simplysabrina #sabrinaghayour #homecooking #vegetarianIt’s not often we have a competition where YOU choose the prize but this month someone is going to be lucky enough to win £200 worth of the regional Italian food range from @sacla_uk.

Click the link in my biog to enter. (Over 18s and UK residents only, I’m afraid.) #sponsored.prize but not paid to post . . . #italianfood #pesto #pasta #oliveoil #wine #sacla #competition #prize #voucher Follow on Instagram
