Interesting <strong>Sussex</strong> Produce<br />

Pollyanna’s Kitchen Jamish®<br />

Pollyanna makes her unique range of oils and condiments in West <strong>Sussex</strong> and her first<br />

product was Chillish® which she describes as the ultimate chilli oil. She’s been adding<br />

to her range year on year, and <strong>2023</strong> saw the launch of Jamish®, a scrumptious and<br />

robust, smokey chilli jam.<br />

Full to the brim with smokey chillies, red pepper and sweet caramelised sugar, Jamish®<br />

adds to its hearty depth of flavour with garlic, ginger and spices to create a sweet<br />

sticky jam with a kick. Use it as a spread, a marinade or glaze, but Pollyanna’s top<br />

suggestions are:<br />

• Spread over some fresh sourdough<br />

and add French brie and warm<br />

smoked bacon<br />

• Spoon onto a warm goat’s cheese and<br />

walnut salad<br />

• Spread over your bread roll before<br />

adding your burger and cheese<br />

• Brush over belly pork or beef brisket<br />

before slow cooking<br />

• Glaze tiger prawns, Halloumi or Tofu<br />

• Stir into mashed potato<br />

<strong>Sussex</strong> Bites<br />

Tamarisk Restaurant, Felpham, West <strong>Sussex</strong><br />

Part of the Beachcroft Hotel, the Tamarisk is just feet away from the seafront so perfect<br />

for a warming lunch after a blustery winter walk on the King Charles III English<br />

Coastal Path.<br />

They promise you the freshest, highest quality sustainable produce from the British<br />

Isles. Chef, Damian Czerny, will serve you the delights of Bocconcini, melon, and<br />

Cointreau salad, local trout and horseradish paté, fried seabass with tarragon lobster<br />

bisque crab beignet and asparagus or vegetable Wellington with roasted pepper, tomato,<br />

garlic and almond sauce. Well worth a visit! Check the menu first as it is seasonal and<br />

likely to change.<br />

Spirit of the Downs Grape Vodka<br />

This Special Edition <strong>Sussex</strong> Grape Vodka has developed its<br />

unique flavour and body from a year resting on Pinot Noir<br />

grapes from Sugrue South Down’s Mount Harry vineyard near<br />

Lewes, East <strong>Sussex</strong>. This sipping vodka has grass and pepper<br />

on the nose with a lovely essence of Madagascan Vanilla on<br />

the palate and a long finish. It’s the perfect accompaniment for<br />

outdoor autumn and winter events or for walkers to lift the<br />

spirits on a hike.<br />

Patty Guy, The Courtyard,<br />

White Rock, Hastings<br />

Kenny Tutt is a British cook and winner of<br />

the MasterChef 2018 UK TV show and Patty<br />

Guy is his baby. Kenny formerly had two<br />

restaurants in Worthing but his focus has<br />

moved to burgers. He told <strong>Sussex</strong> <strong>Exclusive</strong>,<br />

“I’ve always loved street food. Burgers do need<br />

to be good burgers with great quality meat,<br />

but I think it’s the fact that you get the full<br />

spectrum of flavours. You get the fatty meat<br />

and the acidity of the pickle, then you get that<br />

saltiness from the cheese … it’s a one-stop<br />

comfort food and flavour experience. All handheld.<br />

At the Patty Guy, we try and keep it<br />

simple and affordable and everything is made<br />

fresh on the day.”<br />

Patty Guy is a fulfilment of Kenny’s lifelong love<br />

affair with burgers and his desire to recreate the<br />

feeling of having the perfect bite in your hand.<br />
