We also review some of the highlights of the Summer including late afternoons spent at the beach, special family time spent embracing Grandmother-hood, standout meals and the domination of the media cycle by Harry and Meghan as the Royal Family saga continues. Corrie admits to being more than a little excited by the successful launch of the inaugural Sorrento Writers Festival – head to Instagram here for updates ahead of the festival with kicks off on Thursday the 27th of April.   BSF for Red Energy The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida by Shehan Karunatilaka Shrines of Gaiety by Kate Atkinson Trespasses by Louise Kennedy The Serpent Queen (Season 2) on Stan Slow Horses (season 2) on Apple TV Slow Roasted Salmon with Citrus Salsa Verde (recipe HERE or below).

Slow Roasted Salmon with Citrus Salsa Verde ingredients 2-3 pounds salmon 2 lemons zested and juiced 2 oranges zested and juiced 1 red onion thinly sliced 1 garlic clove finely grated 1 tsp smoke paprika 1/4 cup chopped cilantro 1/4 cup chopped parsley 1 cup extra virgin olive oil instructions Preheat oven to 250°F. In a small bowl, combine half of the lemon and orange zest and juice, plus two tbsp of olive oil, and the sliced red onion. Transfer the salmon to a baking dish, season with salt. Pour the citrus and onion mixture over the salmon. Bake for 30-45 minutes or until fish is cooked through. In another small bowl, combine the remaining citrus juice and zest, remaining olive oil, grated garlic and smoked paprika. Mix the chopped herbs in RIGHT before serving (the citrus will cause them to brown over time). Remove fish from the oven, top with herbs and serve.   Learn more about your ad choices.
