A Franco-Irish cheese soufflé recipe #SP

Cheese-souffle-recipe


I’m delighted to be partnering with the
National Dairy Council as part of the Cheese Your Way EU campaign. We often joke in my house that our fridge content is about 90% cheese. I mostly buy Irish cheeses for what my husband and I call our ‘cheese ceremonies’ (essentially a cheese platter for dinner) and I cook a lot with French and Italian cheeses on a daily basis.

Recipe: Rack of Pork with Spinach and Apricot Stuffing #AD


Disclaimer: This is a sponsored post in collaboration with Bord Bia
As I mentioned when sharing a slow cooked pork ramen dish last week, Bord Bia is currently running a campaign to encourage people to try something different from their usual recipe repertoire with quality assured pork as a central ingredient. As well as being flavoursome and good value, pork meat is very versatile; it would be a pity to just use it for the same recipes, wouldn’t it?

Recipe: Slow Cooked Pork Ramen #AD

When I lived in France one of my favourite food related sayings was ‘Tout est bon dans le cochon’ which translates as ‘Every part of the pig is good’. I’ve always agreed with it and tried many different pork cuts and dishes over the years. I also love that some Irish restaurants embrace the ‘nose to tail’ approach for more adventurous things that I wouldn’t cook myself at home.

When I was asked to take part in Bord Bia’s 'Potatoes: More than A Bit on the Side’ campaign I didn’t think twice… I absolutely LOVE potatoes.

As you probably guessed, this campaign aims to encourage people to eat more potatoes as a core component of their meals, rather than just limiting them to a side dish. Indeed, potatoes are so versatile that it would be a pity to just serve them as an accompaniment when they can be the shining star of a lunch or a dinner!

Recipe: Mussel Risotto #SP



Disclaimer: This post was sponsored by Bord Bia
As previously mentioned I’ve teamed up with Bord Bia again this year for their #FlexYourMussels campaign during which during which I’m sharing my love for mussels.
Besides being delicious, mussels are very affordable, easy to prepare and a great source of protein and iron. That’s plenty of good reasons to cook them at home, don’t you think?

I was walking through the city centre at lunchtime not too long ago and ended up in a seafood restaurant… by myself. I usually hate eating out alone but on this occasion the sun was shining, it lifted my mood and I just wanted to treat myself to a huge bowl of moules marinières with fries while sipping a glass of Picpoul. It’s the simple things, isn’t it?

Disclaimer: This post was sponsored by SuperValu Ireland



Every year after Christmas I start planning my foodie trips for the year ahead, because let’s face it, it’s the best way to beat the doom and gloom. This year was no exception, when I just came back from Copenhagen in January I booked my next holiday to Lisbon.

If you follow me on Instagram (@Frenchfoodieindublin) you may remember that I posted a story with the steps on how I booked my trip to Lisbon while making sure I collected SuperValu Real Rewards points to be able to save money on food shopping later.

Recipe: Lamb Tagine with Prunes and Almonds



I’m delighted to be a ‘Lambassador’ for the European Lamb – Tasty, Easy, Fun campaign again this year and to spread some ‘lamb love’ on the blog today. The aim of the campaign is to show the versatility of lamb as a key ingredient and how easy it is to cook, hence the campaign name: ‘Lamb – Tasty, Easy Fun’.

Recipe: Mussels with Irish Cider, Cream & Tarragon


I have fond ‘mussels memories’ from when I was 13 and went to the seaside in Southern France. This may sound strange to an Irish person but it was the first time in my life I’d ever seen the sea.

Sponsored: A Balanced Breakfast with belVita


Breakfast is my favourite meal of the day and I make sure never to skip it. As a matter of fact, breakfast is usually my healthiest meal of the day, so I always try to make time for it.

I was surprised to learn that 80% of the Irish people manage to eat breakfast every morning, it’s pretty good right? But that still leaves a lot of people who skip breakfast and use ‘lack of hunger’ or ‘being too busy in the morning’ as excuses reasons.

Recipe: Lamb Kebabs with Spices and Raisin Tabbouleh


Lamb is without a doubt one of my favourite meats to cook at home. I often make Ottolenghi’s lamb shawarma on a Sunday or lamb koftas during the week and I also enjoy a comforting lamb tagine from time to time. I love lamb for its unique flavour and because it works so wonderfully well with spices.
