This recipe for breakfast croissants from our brand ambassador @nevenmaguire is the perfect Mother’s Day weekend treat. Find the full recipe below and shop the ingredients in your local Dunnes Stores.
Ingredients 1 packet Simply Better French Made All Butter Croissants 1 packet Simply Better Italian Prosciutto Di Parma 6 Simply Better Irish Free Range Corn Fed Large Eggs 2 Tbsp. Simply Better Jersey Cream 1 Pack Simply Better West Cork Co-Op Extra Mature Drinagh Cheddar 2 Tsp. Finely Snipped Fresh Chives Simply Better Oriel Sea Salt and Freshly Ground White Pepper Simply Better Handmade Tomato Relish, to serve
Method Preheat the oven to 190°C (375°F/Gas Mark 5). Place the croissants on a non-stick baking sheet and cook for 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and leave to cool.
Once the croissants are cooked, heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Add two slices of the prosciutto and cook for about 10 seconds on each side to just crisp up. Transfer to a plate while you cook the remainder.
Break the eggs into the frying pan over a low heat and add the cream and season with salt and pepper. Stir gently with a spatula, allowing large curds to develop. Switch off the heat while the eggs are still very soft as they will continue to cook.
Carve each croissant in half and add slices of the Cheddar on to each one and then place the slices of Prosciutto on top. Add spoonfuls of the softly scrambled eggs then top with the other half of the croissant. Arrange on plates and garnish with the chives and serve with some of the tomato relish.1d
This Satay Style Baked Chicken recipe from our brand ambassador @nevenmaguire is perfect for feeding the whole family. Find the full recipe below and shop the ingredients in your local @dunnesstores
Method Put the curry paste in a shallow dish with half of the coconut milk and crumble in two pieces of the palm sugar. Mix with a fork to form a smooth paste, then add the chicken and mix well to combine. Cover with cling film and leave to marinate for at least 1 hour, although the longer the better. Remove from the fridge about 20 minutes before you plan to cook it.
To make the peanut-coconut sauce, add the peanut butter with the soy & ginger sauce, sweet chilli sauce, lime juice, the remaining palm sugar and coconut milk to a saucepan and stir over a gentle heat to make a smooth sauce. Transfer to a bowl and set aside until needed.
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F/Gas Mark 6). Arrange the chicken on a baking tray and bake for 35-40 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown. Remove from the oven and arrange on a platter, then scatter over the fresh chilli and coriander. Tuck in the lime wedges and serve straight to the table with the rice and peanut-coconut sauce for dipping.
NEVEN’S TOP TIP
To make this an easy family tray bake, add a packet of baby potatoes that you’ve halved and tossed in a little oil to the chicken before roasting.

This recipe for Bangers & Cheesy Mash from our Simply Better brand ambassador @nevenmaguire is the perfect comfort food. Find the full recipe below:
Bangers & Cheesy Mash with Caramelised Red Onion Gravy Ingredients (Serves 4) 2 Packs Simply Better Irish Pork Spring Onion & Black Pepper Sausages 2 Tubs Simply Better Irish Made Beef Gravy 3 Tbsp. Simply Better Handmade Caramelised Red Onion Relish 1 Tbsp. Simply Better Italian Extra Virgin Olive Oil 1 Tbsp. Simply Better Italian Balsamic Vinegar Steamed Greens, to serve Cheesy Mash 100g Simply Better West Cork Co-Op Extra Mature Drinagh Cheddar, grated 750g Rooster Potatoes, cut into chunks 75g Butter Method 1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F/Gas Mark 6). Place the sausages on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, drizzle with the olive oil and cook in the oven for 25 minutes, turning halfway through cooking to ensure they are golden brown on all sides. 2. To make the mash, put the potatoes in a pot of cold salted water. Cover and bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, until tender. Drain the potatoes and return to the pot over a low heat for 1-2 minutes to remove as much moisture as possible. Remove the pot from the heat, then mash with a potato masher or pass through a potato ricer until smooth. Beat in the cheese and butter and season to taste. 3. To make the gravy, heat the gravy in a saucepan over a medium heat, whisk in the caramelised red onion relish and balsamic vinegar and simmer for 2-3 minutes. 4. To serve, place a large spoonful of mash in the centre of a plate or serving bowl. Top with 3 of the roasted sausages and pour over the onion gravy. Serve with some of the steamed greens.
This Spaghetti Carbonara uses just four simple ingredients along with some salt and pepper and is ready in less than 15 minutes. Find the full recipe from our @simplybetterds brand ambassador @nevenmaguire below:
Ingredients 1 Pack Simply Better Italian Bronze Spaghetti 2 Packs Simply Better Guanciale Pepato, cut into strips 4 Simply Irish Better Free Range Corn Fed Large Eggs and 2 Yolks 1 Pack Pecorino Romano PDO, finely grated Simply Better Oriel Sea Salt and Freshly Ground Black Pepper
Method 1. Bring a large saucepan of water to a rolling boil. Season with salt and cook the spaghetti for 10 minutes until al dente. 2. Meanwhile, heat a non-stick frying pan over a high heat. Sauté the Guanciale for 2-3 minutes until crisp. Drain off the excess fat and tip on to a plate to cool. 3. Beat the eggs and yolks in a mixing bowl until lightly and fluffy. Season generously with pepper and fold in most of the pecorino, reserving some to garnish. 4. Drain the spaghetti, reserving a small cupful of the cooking water and immediately tip into the bowl with the egg mixture. Add most of the Guanciale, reserving some for garnishing, and toss with a tongs until evenly combined. The heat of the spaghetti will be enough to create a smooth silky sauce – you can add a little of the reserved cooking water if you think it needs it. Divide among bowls and garnish with the rest of the Guanciale and Pecorino to serve.
Neven’s Top Tip: Reserving a small cupful of the pasta cooking water when draining can be used to enhance the silkiness of the cooking sauce before serving3d
