Crispy, tender, and seriously addictive. These bite-sized chicken morsels are marinated in rich buttermilk for extra juiciness, then tumbled in our family’s secret herb and spice blend—a subtle nod to the Colonel, but with Glen’s own twist. Coated for crunch and fried till golden, they’re gluten-free and full of flavour. Perfect for snacking, sharing, or sneaking before dinner even starts.

I've probably made a million litres of chicken broth, and it's probably better than yours. It's the base of almost everything I do, and I carry a litre on me at all times in case I run into someone making soup in my travels. "Bone broth is highly nutritious. It contains bone-strengthening minerals such as calcium, magnesium, potassium and phosphorus. Bone broth is also found to contain natural glucosamine and chondroitin from animal's connective tissues, which are both essential factors to maintain healthy joints. Bone broth is also a good source of collagen, which is found to have anti-aging capacity in diminishing fine lines and promote plumpness for our skin. The marrow from the bones contain essential amino acids which can help fight inflammation to prevent chronic diseases." said someone on the internet. Get some and drink it for better gut health or store it in the freezer and use it in sauces and soups.

A thick and cockle warming soup with a chef's scatter of black beans, spring onion, and chorizo over the top to bring texture and depth. Also available in vegetarian mode the NO-rizo versions as I insist on calling it much to my wife rolled eyes. (get it? No-rizo? - comedy gold)

Carefully roasted vegetables are transformed into a sophisticated soup, enriched with silky butter beans and tender spinach. The roasting process intensifies the vegetables' natural flavors, creating layers of depth in every spoonful, while the butter beans provide creamy texture and the spinach adds a bright, earthy finish.

Our friend Alessia is from Tuscany, and you'd like her, so we're sure you'd like this creamy, tomatoey, mushroom, chickeny dish from her motherland. Served with or without pasta - this is a heat and eat meal, great for making colleagues or loved ones jealous that you ordered from Glen Cooks Food and they didn't.

This rustic comfort dish combines tender, slow-cooked ham hock with sweet baby peas and hearty macaroni pasta. The rich, smoky flavor from the ham hock infuses the entire dish, while the bright green peas add freshness and color. It's the kind of warming, old-fashioned meal that transforms simple ingredients into something deeply satisfying - perfect for cold evenings when you want something that feels like a warm hug on a plate. The macaroni acts as the perfect vehicle to soak up all those savory, porky flavors, making every bite substantial and comforting.

Slow-simmered beef, rich tomato sugo, and just the right tangle of spaghetti—this is classic comfort with Glen’s signature touch.

A simple Italian-inspired meal, with stir fried seasonal beans and broccoli, loads of fresh herbs, perfectly cooked pasta and a garlicky sauce that is thickened with sharp Pecorino cheese.

Dinner. Sorted. Dignity? Optional. This dish is basically the culinary equivalent of a warm hug and a firm handshake—it means business but still wants you to feel loved. Slow-roasted lamb that’s so tender you could cut it with stern eye contact. Nestled beside it are veggies that aren’t just an afterthought—they’ve been roasted until they taste like they made good life choices. The gravy? Oh, it's silky, savoury, and smug. Poured generously, not delicately. It's the kind of gravy that makes even cauliflower feel like royalty. Perfect for those nights when you want something hearty without playing butcher, roaster, and saucier. It’s your go-to “I cooked” lie that only your microwave knows about. Serve it in silence, devour it loudly—this one's got classic written all over it, with a wink and a gravy moustache.

Chicken thighs marinated in satay spices, grilled, and sensually slathered and simmered in rich peanut and coconut gravy. It's a sexy, nutty, rich and dreamy dish - if it helps you can imagine Nigella cooking it. This could be served with flatbreads, or one could go loopy like that one restaurant I went to one time and serve it with fettuccine (just don't tell the Italians!). It is, however, served appropriately with gingered rice.

Garlic and Thyme roasted mushrooms arrive at cauliflower’s finest hour—roasted, cloaked in melty cheese, and baked till it's golden enough to brag. Paired with seasonal veggies and a splash love (and garlic)!

Glazed with a rich ketchup & brown sugar glaze, these moreish abominations come straight from America's Test Kitchen's faves of 2022! Baked as a small meat "muffin" rather than a larger loaf these delicate meat bombs are full of umami rich ingredients including Parmesan and W sauce. I'm willing to suggest they're probably even healthy (ish). Finally - kids eat them..

Trevors Beef Bangers a thing to behold and even better to be eating them. Made with natural casing and the perfect ratio of fat, it's all I can do to not be outshone by our local butcher. Paired with a classic onion gravy, and silky smooth mash.

Although traditionally a side dish this is my spin on this traditional caponata. It is hearty enough to be served as a main alongside our wild rice salad, it's probably so healthy it'll kill you. Combing sauteed onion and celery with Italian tomatoes, capers and green olive and served on top of creamy and garlicky oven-roasted eggplant, .

A light curry that has all the heat of an optimistic summer day. Jackfruit is a tropical fruit that has a texture reminiscent of meat which gives this curry it signature texture.

A sure sign of the season change is the proliferation of lovely greens! In this dish, I take firm tofu and bake it with maple syrup, then I stir-fry greens and toss them with more maple syrup and soy sauce for a sweet salty kick. Served with basmati rice and a self-satisfied smirk.

Roasted for so long I should charge by the hour! The long cooking transforms these orange nuggets, into a sweet, deeply flavoured experience. Drizzled with honey and sprinkled with feta, walnuts and coriander seeds.

They're green, yummy & dunked in a steamy bath - served w walnut & black olive tapenade. ** Flowers included where seasonal.
