#sausageroll production line. An evening well spent pandering to my #OCD penchant for perfectionism and attention to details. . . #sausage #sausagerollextraordinaire #bakingyoubetter #greathawkeyebakeoff #bakeyoubetter #bakeoffbakealong #pastry #bakingforfriends #baking #gbbo #instafood (at Wandsworth)

An evening of #sausageroll making. 1. Morocc'n'rolls: Harissa, apricot, glazed with sumac, honey & rose petals. 2. Hoisin & spring onion. 3. Pesto, cheese & tomato. . . . #sausage #sausagerollextraordinaire #bakingyoubetter #greathawkeyebakeoff #bakeyoubetter #bakeoffbakealong #pastry #bakingforfriends #baking #gbbo #instafood (at Wandsworth)

The obsession with #pomegranate and #harissa continues...ft. Pickled radishes and fennel, and as always, a hell of a lot of chopped fresh herbs. FRESH.

Next from @ottolenghi #Sweet: Fig and pistachio frangipane tart. Tart singular because I am just not in the mood for fiddly widdly tarts tonight. I am, however, in the mood for baking. . . . . . #ottolenghi #sweet #fig #pistachio #frangipane #bakingyoubetter #bakeyourselfhappy #gbbo #bakingseason

@ottolenghi and @helen_goh_bakes Lemon & blackcurrant stripe cake. The method of sideways Swiss-rolling means it's a tall one, without having to bake multiple sponges. Just one Swiss roll tin....however, TWELVE EGGS! . . . . #cake #baking #sundaybaking #blackcurrant #ottolenghi #sweet #lemon #sponge #berries #bakingyoubetter #gbbo #yummy #instafood #instacake #bakemehappy (at Wandsworth)

@ottolenghi and @helen_goh_bakes Lemon & blackcurrant stripe cake. What a way to spend a Sunday. Feeling a huge sense of accomplishment and obviously a slice has been consumed as a reward. . . . . . #cake #baking #sundaybaking #blackcurrant #ottolenghi #sweet #lemon #sponge #berries #bakingyoubetter #gbbo #yummy #instafood #instacake #bakemehappy (at Wandsworth)

#Experimental #baking. Came across this ABSOLUTE KILLER of a recipe from @asaucykitchen. NO BAKE SNICKERS CHEESECAKE (vegan and paleo). I'm converted. Very clever #asaucykitchen. Mainly just dates, nut butter and cashews! . . . . . #vegan #paleo #paleobaking #veganbaking #raw #rawbaking #unbakedcheesecake #nocheesehere #nobutter #norefinedsugar #peanutbutter #nutbutter #nocarbs #carbfree (at Wandsworth)

Rapid request for the Asian Hoisin & Spring Onion #sausagerolls. Whipped up in the time it took an MIC 'storyline' to play out. Slightly rough around the edges....let's say...#rustic. . . . . #sausage #rolls #baking #sausagerollextraordinaire #pastry #hoisin #springonion #yum #sausageparty (at Wandsworth)

Fair play @cheftomkerridge. I spent days hunting down powdered Psyllium husk. I had no idea what the heck it was! But after spending far too much dollar in @hollandandbarrett I experimented with your #dopaminediet flatbreads. And they were delish. . . . . . #dopamine #diet #lowcarb #coconutflour #coconutoil #psylliumhusk (at Wandsworth)
