Hello! I'm new to the world of blogging, but thought that as I have always wanted a place to document things that interest me, or that I love, I would give it a go!
It may take me some time to get used to this whole idea so I probably will not frequently upload, as I would love to make each post the best quality.
I have decided to write about a recipe I made for dinner for my family this evening.
These are the Mary Berry pork and red pepper burgers.
As well as below, you can find the offline version of this recipe in her book, Mary Berry cooks.
As my family have made a real effort to start eating more healthily, I looked through all the cookbooks we had and ended up deciding on these healthy alternatives to shop bought burgers.
The recipe is for 8 burgers but I made four slightly larger ones.
This meal looked like so much fun to make, so I had a go myself.
I find it's easier weighing out all of your ingredients before you start cooking, it just makes life a lot easier.
For cooking the burgers, I started by browning both sides in a pan for four minutes, and then placed them on a baking tray and popped them in the oven.
I served my burgers on a bed of salad with sweet potato chips,
My family and I all enjoyed these burgers and I am sure I will make them again.
Thankyou for reading my first blog post, If you would like the recipe for yourself, you can find it below. See you soon!
