Smoked English Peas, Whipped Ricotta, Lemon & Elderflower Tartlet
Early summer ingredients don't need much help to shine. In this tartlet, sweet charred peas, elderflower, lovage, and roasted lemon come together on a crisp garlic-infused pastry base with whipped honey ricotta. It's fresh, vibrant, and one of my favourite seasonal dishes I've created recently.
The full recipe is now available inside the membership, along with detailed guidance on every element, so you can recreate the dish in your own kitchen with confidence.
Enjoy! :)

Smoked Eel Cigars
A crisp cigar shell filled with bold, layered flavour - sweet mango, chilli heat, and rich prawn chutney, balanced with a silky smoked eel cream. It’s light, punchy, and built for contrast in every bite. A dish that looks refined but delivers big, confident flavour, exactly how we like it. :) Find the full recipe inside. Enjoy!

Wild Cornish Turbot
Wild Cornish turbot, lightly kombu-brined and filled with a delicate turbot and scallop mousse, gently steamed to preserve its natural sweetness. Paired with celeriac layers, Cornish mussels, smoked butter, and a champagne shellfish sauce, finished with shaved white truffle. A dish built on technique, balance, and restraint... and one you can recreate yourself, step by step, inside the membership. Have fun! :)
