My rusty old Sospan

Okay, so I better put the record straight, this is not a sospan (sauce-pan), neither is it rusty (just a bit aged), but it is my favourite kitchen utensil. I believe it belonged to my Grandmother, then my Mother and now me - so a family heirloom. Made completely from cast iron and certainly not non-stick, it is great for pan frying and then finishing in the oven.

Nice hey?….

Cauliflower Purée

Great with poached fish especially a whole sea-trout (sewin) or salmon, this is a really easy yet classy recipe that makes a change from smothering your cauli with cheese sauce.

white sauce

AKA Béchamel
The classic basic flour and milk sauce, used in everything from lasagne to parsley sauce. This is my take on it.

chicken stock

Hating waste as much as I do, I always try to squeeze as many meals out of a roast chicken as possible. One great way to finish off a half-or-more eaten carcass is to make stock from it.

Once made, throw in some pak choi, noodles and cooked chicken then garnish with chilli sauce for a great quick and easy meal — super noodles with from left-overs.

About

Welcome to mwnch (pronounced munch!)

Food and drink are two of life’s great pleasures.

I believe that to get the greatest pleasure from these you need to use the finest seasonal, local produce and ingredients and prepare them simply and well.

There is no hardship in this for me as it means making the most of the excellent produce that Wales and the U.K have to offer - augmented on my travels by the best from the rest of the world.

This site is about that belief.
