Chicken with coleslaw
Instead of fresh rolls, I used ciabatta’s for the chicken and coleslaw, what was very nice too. You just have to cut the chicken thigh up a little and spread it out together with the coleslaw over your bread. Very nice indeed. Ingredients (serves 4) 4 higher-welfare chicken thighs 1 lemon 1 red chilli ,…
Baked sweet potatoes with grated salad & very sticky and crunchy seeds
Okay, you might not be able to see the sweet potato hidden underneath the grated salad, but to get an idea, it should look like that! For me the best part of this dish are the sticky crunchy seeds and the spiced yoghurt. But to be honest, this whole sweet potato rocks! -enjoy- Ingredients (serves…
Grilled mushroom risotto
Sometimes it is very daunting to cook an Italian dish for my Italian colleagues. But when it works the joy is double! This risotto dish takes some time and care to make it, but you will agree with me that the result is worth it. I didn’t grill the mushrooms in a griddle pan but…
Pasta pesto with garlic & rosemary chicken
Cooking for a large bunch of people, I often have to adapt the recipe a little. I love this recipe below, the homemade pesto is easy to do and very yummy. The beans I left on the side, in a huge bowl and scattered more Parmesan cheese over it. I did replace the fennel seeds…
Spicy chorizo pan lasagne
Okay, for 30 people making pan lasagne is a bit difficult. So, I made the sauce in a big cooking pan and layered the lasagne out in a large dish ( actually we needed 2!) to put all in the oven (200ºC) to bake for 40-45 minutes. The Chorizo is the surprise of the dish….
Minestrone soup
As many people in my circle have been going down with the flu recently, I was looking for a meal that would give those people an energy boost. This is a great recipe which warms, fills and lifts you up! No more sniffing and coughing in the BUX office tomorrow 😉 Ingredients (serves 8) 1…

Cuban Chicharrones de Pollo
A new hit @BUX Headquarters! I couldn’t fry enough of these gorgeous chicken bites. If you do fry them in batches you can also place them in the oven for a little while to keep warm. The chicken was marinated overnight. This made the texture very soft and even more yummy. The dish was served…
