Always TRY much better than DRY 🍷
If we are going to kick things off this January then this is my choice for what will be a tasty (albeit) slightly boring Shepard’s Pie tonight 🥧
🇦🇷 Super cool estate @altoslashormigas showing the vibrancy, freshness and depth of Bonarda…..considered to be Argentina’s ‘second’ grape behind Malbec
🍀 An Organic wine crafted without the use of oak (barrel) aging. This year, as much about TRYING new wines & varietals should also be about the wine’s providence and this wine ticks all the boxes ✅
🍽️ Super versatile. Enjoy with a wide range of Mediterranean style dishes. Naturally I’ll report back after the Shepard’s Pie 😋 @liberty_wines

Summer 🌞 = Paella 🥘
Capturing some of the Spanish vibes, in the sun, using authentic Spanish ingredients : COOKING CHORIZO!
Chorizo can either be bought as a whole cured sausage or as soft cooking chorizo which is cooked before eating.
Cooking chorizo is softer, moister and more similar to a classic sausage, typically releasing delicious spicy red oil when cooked. 🏆 It’s an absolute game changer !
📍 Available at Liquorice Wine & Deli
RECIPE Spanish paella - Serves 4
200g chicken thigh, cut into 2cm pieces
1 tsp paprika
150g @brindisaspanishfoods cooking chorizo, diced
2 garlic cloves, finely sliced
6 spring onions, roughly chopped
1 tsp turmeric
300g Spanish paella rice
1 red pepper, diced
900ml hot fish or vegetable stock
180g raw king prawns
100g frozen British petits pois
4 small tomatoes, cut into wedges
1. Toss the chicken pieces in the paprika.
2. Heat 1 tbsp. of oil in a deep pan over a medium heat, fry the chicken, chorizo and garlic until the chorizo has coloured and the chicken has begun to brown.
3. Add the spring onions, turmeric, paella rice and red pepper.
Stir and heat for 2-3 minutes until the rice is opaque.
4. Add the stock. Stir gently then simmer slowly for 10 minutes until the rice is half cooked. You don’t need to stir it. Add the prawns, petits pois and tomatoes to the pan.
5. Heat for a further 10 minutes until the rice is fluffy and the chicken is cooked through. Season with freshly ground black pepper and serve.
🥘 Such a pleasure to cook outside
