I am Claire and I am an igniter of tastebuds! (Do Read On!!!)

I have been doing a course for the last 8 weeks, a mumpreneur course. A inspiring course that has taught me so many things about how to run a business from home and hopefully how to turn my little blog and love of cooking into a fully functioning bill paying business. I have dreams one day of building a wonderful cabin in the garden and running cookery classes. That is a long way off, but I am on my way with an in-home cookery class booked in and a request for a second one to be confirmed.

Which is where the phrase ‘I am Claire and I am an igniter of tastebuds’ comes from. We had to write a tag line/introductory line. I won’t lie, mine was rubbish!!! It didn’t sparkle. It didn’t really show the passion that I feel. So our co-ordinator wrote one for me, I was then challenged to make sure it appeared on the blog. Well Belle and Amanda it is in here…. twice 😉

BUT, I do actually think this dish ignites your tastes buds! It is such a simple dish but with such an wonderful mix of tastes and textures. You have firm fish, some beautifully sweet nectarine, the spice from the chillies, the crunch of the red onion, the zesty fresh taste of lime, grassy herbs and a perfect hint of salt. I am so in love with this salsa, that I demolished my fish almost as soon as I was done shooting…..then I may have eaten the fruity salsa off the other plate too!!! I had to make an extra batch for Stew 😳 obviously I had to eat some of that too!!!! Salsa overload???? Nah!! Fruity Salsa loving!

This would work well with chicken or pork, and it is also great stuffed into homemade flour tortillas (get my recipe here) 🙂

So cook this up, pour a glass of wine and tell everyone you are igniting their taste buds 😉

Enjoy.

    Hi Claire! What a lovely delicious combination! Swordfish is one of my favorites. Your in home cooking classes sound like they would be so much fun! My sister in law does a small bakery class at home on Saturdays and she really enjoys it.
