Easy shortcrust dessert pastry
This is a quick and easy way to make a sweet shortcrust pastry for mince pies, jam tarts and other tasty treats. You can make this and keep it in the fridge for a couple of days, or freeze it until you need it.
Clementine, Saffron and Polenta Cake
This is a delicious and easy crowd pleaser! A bit different, and it has a nice christmassy feel about it! Lovely!
Stovies – The perfect Scottish Stew
This is comfort food at it’s best!!! We had this at our wedding reception, and we usually have a big pot of it on the stove on Hogmonay for folk to help themselves too, great party food! This is also great for leftovers, you can use cooked meat, leftover gravy, and leftover veg from a Sunday Roast – so nothing is wasted!
Slow cooked oxtail and gnocchi
Comfort food doesn’t have to be bland. If you have the time this Italian winter warmer makes dark days worth looking forward to.
Cottage Pie
Perfect Comfort food on a chilly evening! I get loads of veg in mine and it gets demolished with all that lovely sauce!
Toad in the hole
A great weekday meal for families, but really I think anyone would like this yummy comfort food. 🙂
Tuna in Vinegar (Classic Italian food)
This is a delicious and super simple way to cook Tuna. I sometimes find Tuna can be disappointing if it is too dry, but this is always really tasty and never lets me down!
Blackberry (bramble) crumble
This is so simple and always a winner. Really cheap too if you can pick your own berries. Such a nice treat at the end of the summer. 🙂 Enjoy!
