Dublin Lawyer & Champ
My mother grew up poor in Ireland, but made a success of herself here in the USA. I decided to create an amalgam of an Irish peasant dish and a high-end Irish dish: Dublin Lawyer with Champ.

Summer Bounty Refresher – Strawberry/Kiwi Cream
A delicious and tangy strawberry kiwi cream that goes great inside of a crispy puff pastry with chocolate drizzled over it, or with a nice cinnamon coffee cake.
Gluten Free Orange Cake
This is one of my favourite guilt free treats. It’s also a high protein recipe and can be enjoyed with a variety of toppings once it’s baked. It’s one of the easiest cakes you will ever make. It can even be done with a hand whisk. This recipe can also be made with lemons.
4 Ingredient Lemon Cheese Buns
Wake up to citrusy warm 4 ingredient lemon cheese buns and your day just got sweeter and brighter! Tender, moist and somewhat addictive, these lemon buns can be made in a flash and can be warmed for gooey love. Why not save yourself time and energy, but still have something decidedly decadent! You don’t have to be a fancy pastry chef to create magic. And, these lemon cheese buns, a cross between a lemon pastry and cinnamon bun, sure do prove that point!
“Quiche Lorraine” Scones
All the flavor of Quiche Lorraine in easy to make flaky scones. I developed this over the summer while I was looking for a way to use up some bacon.
Lobster Fondue
Perfect for dinner parties and elegant enough to be served in a restaurant.
Maple Bacon Cheesecake
One of my favorite original recipes, loved by guests at two of the restaurants I headed the kitchen of.
Vegetarian Scotch Eggs
This recipe is inspired by the vegetarian koftas (Indian meatballs) my mom used to make when I was growing up. I have tried to elevate it into meatless scotch eggs with a layer of mince soya made of split chickpeas and paneer. The rhubarb sauce adds a punch to the dish. All these indian flavors are sure to tickle your taste buds!
Earl grey Choux a la Creme
I lived in Paris for a long time, and my kids were raised there, so this french dessert is a little taste of home. My girls and I have always loved afternoon tea, and we still love small little finger treats you can eat with a delicious cup of tea in the afternoon. This dessert was a way to combine the idea of tea, high tea desserts, and our home in Paris.
