A great recipe to make for any Bastille Day celebrations you might be having from Pierre Koffmann's fabulous Memories of Gascony, one of my all-time favourite cookbooks.

I love it when a wine pairing you don’t totally expect turns out to be a winner just because you happen to have the right bottle open - in this case a Viognier from the Languedoc coast down in the south of France. The dish was a watercress, pear and chickpea salad with a punchy harissa and maple dressing from @sabrinaghayour’s brilliant new book Simply which I made to go with her beetroot and feta lattice pie (also awesome). To find out why the match worked so well and how to find other good pairings with Viognier click on the link in my biog #matchoftheweek. . . . #salad #watercress #pear #chickpeas #harissa #whitewine #viognier #foodandwine #winepairing #simplysabrinaAutumn at its very best. Can *almost* forgive the clocks going back ... . . . #autumn #fall #fallcolors #autumnleaves #maple #clifton #bristol #sundaymorningsI confess I haven’t made this admirable pie - yet! The recipe comes from @chefcalum’s brilliant new book The Pie Room and you can find it on my website if you click the link in my biog. Really interesting method - you roast and then braise the meat in the oven. Sounds like the perfect project for a weekend when the clocks are going back 😱. (Also thinking it would be the PERFECT match for a good bottle of Bordeaux or Cabernet Sauvignon.) . . . #pastry #pie #thepieroom #chefcalum #steakpie #beef #homecooking #comfortfood #instafood #foodstagram #foodphotography by @johncareyphotoJust the BEST evening at Sergio’s (a fab totally unreconstructed Italian resto in Bristol) scoffing carbonara with @tvsandyclarke @alanoshea13 @chefhenryeldon @ren_varsha and @pickledmimi who provided the magnificent white burgundy. Pretending to be cool in the street afterwards 🙄. . . . #streetart #eatlocal #bristol #foodwithfriends Follow on Instagram
