About Me My name is Hannah, I'm 21, and I am studying a Masters in Modern English in the UK.
When I am not studying, I like to shoot zombies in the head, and write recipes in my cookbook to make and share.
If you would like to submit a recipe for me to cook, or have any request or feedback, email me at: hannahscooking@gmail.com

Here’s a range of my favourite sorbet recipes, from a variety of places. I’ve tried all of them at some point, and they are pretty damn good! Sorbets are really good as a dessert, because they are easy to make, fairly cheap and you can make them well in advance. They work for pretty much any occasion as well, and can be dressed up or dressed down with simple decorations, like mint sprigs or fruit slices.

You will need:
2 red chillis, seeded and chopped
1 red pepper, seeded and chopped
3 tbsp red wine vinegar
4 tbsp olive oil
4 chicken breasts (skin needs to be still on)
a food processor
an ovenproof dish
1. Put the chillis, peppers, oil and vinegar into the food processor and blend. You want the end mixture to have small chunks of pepper in, so don’t blend it too much. Then season.
2. Score the chicken skin lightly with a knife, then put into the dish. Pour over three quarters of the dressing, ensuring that all of the chicken is covered. Marinate for 20 minutes, or leave it overnight in the fridge for maximum effects. Keep the leftover marinade.
3. Fry the chicken in a pan for 5-6 minutes on each side, turning once. Serve with the rest of the dressing drizzled over the top, and with some salad.
Hi everyone, bad news I’m afraid – there’s not going to be videos for a while, because I’ve got too much on with coursework and applying for a PhD at the moment. I’ve been putting off posting the new recipes because I thought I would have time to do some videos, but sadly I didn’t, so I think it’s only fair I give you the recipes you voted for! Don’t worry, I will still be posting recipes per week, taking requests, and the occasional video when I have the time.
Toad in the Hole:
serves 4
You will need:
8 sausages (from a butcher or counter in a supermarket if you can get them)
2 onions, sliced
100g plain flour
2 eggs
300ml milk
300ml water
2 tbsp Dijon (or wholegrain) mustard
a deep roasting tray
1. Preheat the oven to 220 degrees Celsius (200 for fan ovens) or gas mark 7.
2. Put the sausages and onions on a roasting tray and drizzle with oil. Roast for 20 minutes until the sausages are just starting to brown.
3. Sift the flour into a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Make a small dip in the centre of the flour, add the eggs and mustard, and beat together. Mix the water and milk together, then gradually add in the mixture to the flour and eggs, constantly stirring.
4. Remove the roasting tray from the oven and pour over the batter. Return the tray to the oven for 35-40 minutes, until the batter is golden and risen, then serve.

Hello my lovelies!
Just a little heads up that the next poll will be lasting for two weeks, as I am aware that a lot of you will have lots of stuff to do over the Christmas period, and may not always be able to get to the internet. So there will be plenty of time to vote on the next dish! I hope you have all checked out my Christmas food guides as well, and give them a go yourselves! It really impresses Mum and Dad if you don’t live at home and show up with mince pies over Christmas and are able to tell them that you made them from scratch! 
Also, for those that voted for the previous polls – do not panic! I have not forgotten about the winning choices, and I shall be posting a cookies video later in the week (ingredients arriving tomorrow), and a pizza (and base) video as well before the New Year.
