Welcome to 'Diamonds & Dauphinoise'.....a new blog for all you super busy, glamourous, girls about town and yummy mummies alike....who are real foodie floozies at heart, and love to feed and entertain their family and friends, but perhaps don't always have the time or energy to think of ideas!

My aim is to help inspire you all, and reduce the flurry of panic and stress of rushing around your kitchens in your Louboutins...

Get your your partner, your friends and your kids involved. If your kitchen is large enough, why should you be slaving away on your own? The kitchen is the heart of the home, it should be buzzy, vibrant, and happy....just as the dishes that are coming out of it.

Olive Oil

My future in-laws live in Cyprus and grow their own olives, harvest them and press them to make their own olive oil.  Unfortunately, living here in London we are unable to share their plentiful harvests and make do with our favourite from the supermarket.

This is my absolute favourite extra virgin olive oil.  I don't use it in cooking as it is pricey, but it's just fabulous in salads or just on it's own with warm crustry bread.

When doing a dinner party, I always find warm bread, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, olives, and crudite a great option when time is of the essence.
