Opera cake recipe For the kirsch syrup, tip the sugar into a small pan. Pour over 200ml/7fl oz water and cook over a medium heat until the sugar has dissolved. Bring to the boil and simmer for 4-5 minutes, or until the syrup has reduced by half. Remove from the heat, add the kirsch, stir and leave to cool completely.For the joconde sponge, heat the oven to 220C/425F/Fan 200C/Gas 7. Grease and line a 33x23cm/13x9in Swiss roll tin with baking parchment. Whisk the egg whites in a bowl until stiff peaks form when the whisk is removed from the bowl. Add the caster sugar, one teaspoon at a time, whisking between each addition to make a glossy meringue. Cover with cling film and set aside. Tip the ground almonds and icing sugar into the bowl of a free-standing food mixer and add the whole eggs. Whisk together for 3-5 minutes, or until doubled in volume. Fold in the flour, and then gently fold in the meringue in three separate batches. Pour the melted butter down the side of the bowl and fold in, until incorporated. Tip the mixture into the prepared tin and level the surface with a palette knife. Bake for 5-7 minutes until pale, golden-brown and springy to touch.Place a sheet of baking parchment over a cooling rack and turn the cake out onto it. Peel off the baking parchment from the base of the cake and leave to cool completely. For the chocolate ganache, pour the cream into a small pan and heat until just bubbling. Remove from the heat and add the chocolate. Stir until all the chocolate has melted and mixture is smooth and glossy. Pour into a bowl and leave to set.For the crème au beurre, place the egg yolks in the bowl of a food mixer with the whisk attached. In a pan over a gentle heat, dissolve the sugar in three tablespoons of water and then boil it steadily until the syrup reaches 110C/225F on a sugar thermometer. With the food mixer running, slowly pour the syrup over the egg yolks. Continue whisking until the mixture is thick and mousse-like. Add the butter, a little at a time, whisking continuously and finally add the vanilla paste. To assemble, slice the cooled sponge horizontally so you have two 33x23cm/13x9in sponges. Cut each of the sponges in half vertically, so that you have four sponges.Place one of the sponges on a cake board and brush with one-quarter of the kirsch syrup. Spread over one-third of the crème au beurre. Top with another sponge and brush with one-quarter of the kirsch syrup. Spread over the chocolate ganache. Top with a third sponge and brush with another one-quarter of the kirsch syrup. Spread over another third of the crème au beurre and top with the final sponge. Brush with the remaining kirsch syrup and spread with the remaining crème au beurre. Arrange the raspberries over the top in rows and brush over the melted jam to glaze. Refrigerate the opera cake for two hours to set the layers and make it easier to trim. Trim the edges using a sharp knife to reveal the layers. For the kirsch syrup, tip the sugar into a small pan.

Pretzels recipe Add the flour, salt, yeast and butter to a bowl. In a jug, add the malt extract to the milk and stir to dissolve. Add the milk mixture gradually to the flour and mix until a dough is formed. Turn the dough out onto a clean work surface and knead. The dough should be stiff but not sticky, and shouldn’t need any extra flour to knead. Continue for 10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and glossy. Divide the dough in half. To one half, add the zest of two oranges and the poppy seeds, and mix through, ensuring even distribution. Leave the other half plain. Place both doughs into separate oiled bowls, cover, and leave to prove until doubled in size (about 45 minutes).Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.Once proved, turn both the doughs out and divide each one into six equal pieces. Using your hands, take each piece, and roll the dough into a long sausage shape, tapering the ends, and creating a slight bulge in the middle. Each piece should be about 40-50cm/16-20in in length. You may need to roll out each of the strands just part way at first, then rest them, allowing the glutens to relax, before continuing to roll them out to their full length. This can help to prevent the strands springing back and creating unevenly shaped pieces. As you roll out the ropes you should apply some pressure to the dough, working from the middle outwards, pushing out any air bubbles that may have formed in the dough.The traditional and quickest way to shape a pretzel is to take hold of each end of the strand and lift it into the air to create a U-shape. Then, without letting go of the ends, and in one swift movement, flip the centre of the U, propelling it to form a double twist. Lay it back down on the work bench and lightly press the tapered ends onto the opposite sides of the pretzel, attaching them either side of the central bulge. You may find a little dab of water helps to stick the ends to the pretzel. Carefully flip the pretzels over and onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper, so that the ends are now face down. You should now have a classic pretzel shape with three equally spaced sections. Alternatively, shape each rope into a wide U-shape on the work bench. Take the two ends and manually twist them around each other twice before fixing the tapered end pieces to the opposite sides of the pretzel underneath the main circle of the pretzel so that you can’t see the joins. Press down lightly to seal, without misshaping the pretzel. Work quickly to shape all 12 pretzels.Add the bicarbonate of soda to 7 litres/12½pints of boiling water, and gently drop each pretzel into the boiling water for approximately five seconds. Gently remove and place on a baking tray, keeping the different flavours separate. While the plain dough is still wet from the water, sprinkle over the salt and sesame seeds.With a sharp knife, make a deep slash into the thickest part of the dough.Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are a deep brown colour. Meanwhile make the glaze for the sweet pretzels. Put the orange juice into a saucepan and add 100g/3½oz sugar. Add the zest, and bring up to the boil. Boil for one minute, then remove the zest using a slotted spoon and roll it in the remaining sugar. Continue to cook the syrup until reduced in volume and sticky. Pass through a fine sieve.Place the baked pretzels on a wire cooling rack, brush the sweet pretzels with the syrup glaze and sprinkle over the candied zest.

The dough should be stiff but not sticky, and shouldn’t need any extra flour to knead. Continue for 10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and glossy. Divide the dough in half. To one half, add the zest of two oranges and the poppy seeds, and mix through, ensuring even distribution. Leave the other half plain. Place both doughs into separate oiled bowls, cover, and leave to prove until doubled in size (about 45 minutes). Divide the dough in half.

Once proved, turn both the doughs out and divide each one into six equal pieces. Using your hands, take each piece, and roll the dough into a long sausage shape, tapering the ends, and creating a slight bulge in the middle. Each piece should be about 40-50cm/16-20in in length. You may need to roll out each of the strands just part way at first, then rest them, allowing the glutens to relax, before continuing to roll them out to their full length. This can help to prevent the strands springing back and creating unevenly shaped pieces. As you roll out the ropes you should apply some pressure to the dough, working from the middle outwards, pushing out any air bubbles that may have formed in the dough.

As you roll out the ropes you should apply some pressure to the dough, working from the middle outwards, pushing out any air bubbles that may have formed in the dough. The traditional and quickest way to shape a pretzel is to take hold of each end of the strand and lift it into the air to create a U-shape. Then, without letting go of the ends, and in one swift movement, flip the centre of the U, propelling it to form a double twist. Lay it back down on the work bench and lightly press the tapered ends onto the opposite sides of the pretzel, attaching them either side of the central bulge. You may find a little dab of water helps to stick the ends to the pretzel. Carefully flip the pretzels over and onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper, so that the ends are now face down. You should now have a classic pretzel shape with three equally spaced sections.

You should now have a classic pretzel shape with three equally spaced sections. Alternatively, shape each rope into a wide U-shape on the work bench. Take the two ends and manually twist them around each other twice before fixing the tapered end pieces to the opposite sides of the pretzel underneath the main circle of the pretzel so that you can’t see the joins. Press down lightly to seal, without misshaping the pretzel. Work quickly to shape all 12 pretzels. Alternatively, shape each rope into a wide U-shape on the work bench.

Roast turkey crown recipe An average of 3.9 out of 5 stars from 18 ratings https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/food/ic/food_16x9_1600/recipes/roastleglessturkey_13963_16x9.jpg This is how to cook a roast turkey crown to ensure moist, tender meat with minimum faff. The crispy bacon is the perfect accompaniment to the roast turkey. Use our roasting calculator to work out the exact turkey cooking times and temperatures. 1 turkey breast crown (a wingless, legless turkey)50g/2oz buttersalt and pepperabout 10 rashers streaky bacon 1 turkey breast crown (a wingless, legless turkey) 50g/2oz butter salt and pepper about 10 rashers streaky bacon Method Preheat the oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7.Rub the butter all over the bird and season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Then lay the bacon rashers over the bird, more or less covering it completely. The job of the bacon is twofold: to help keep the breast basted without you having to open (and therefore cool) the oven every ten minutes; and to buy you time, so the skin doesn't burn before the breast is cooked through.Place the bird in a roasting tray in the centre of the oven. Cook on this high heat for 25-30 minutes until the bacon is almost burnt.Remove the bacon from the breast of the bird and put on one side. Baste the breast of the bird with the fat and juices in the pan and return to the oven.

Nigella's turkey breast with Christmas stuffing recipe Put the cranberries and Marsala into a small saucepan and bring to a boil, then take off the heat and leave to one side. Put the oil into a large frying pan or similar heavy-based pan, and fry the shallots for a minute or so, then add the spices and shredded sage, turning them in the soft shallots.Squeeze the sausagemeat out of its skins, add to the pan and break it up – using a wooden fork and spatula for ease – turning it in the hot pan until it loses its pinkness. This will take about five minutes.Take the frying pan off the heat and turn the contents into a large bowl, mixing in the steeped cranberries and any Marsala clinging to them, and leave to cool. You can cover with cling film and put in the fridge for up to two days at this stage.When you are ready to stuff the turkey breast, take the bowl of sausagement out of the fridge.Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.Uncover the bowl of sausagemeat, add the eggs, parmesan and breadcrumbs and – I use my hands for this – mix well.Lay the butterflied turkey joint out in front of you. It really does look like a butterfly though admittedly a fleshy one. Spread the stuffing out first in the slight cavity in the centre of the butterfly and then outwards onto the wings though not going right up to the edge (or it will squodge out when cooking) but as evenly as possible over the whole joint.Carefully, in one swift but steady movement, fold one ‘wing’ over the other to close the joint, and then sit the turkey on a large roasting tin, breast bone (or where the breast bone would be) uppermost as it would look were it the whole bird, with the pointier bit furthest away from you. Thread two skewers through the base – i.e., the widest part that is nearer you – to keep it closed and smear it all over with the duck or goose fat.Roast the turkey breast for 2-2½ hours, then check it is cooked with a turkey or meat thermometer. When cooked, it should read 75C. (If you’re leaving it to rest, as you should or to cool, you could take it out at 73C – it wil retain heat and continue to cook for a short while once out of the oven.)Flex your muscles, then lift out onto a carving board, and leave to rest for at least 20 minutes. Or leave to get cold if you are eating it as part of a buffet.Cut through the whole joint in wide slices right across; they will need to be quite thick, at least 1-2cm/½-1in, to keep the stuffing intact within the slice.As you place it on table or sideboard, dot around it the condiments of your choice: I revert to Christmas in Italy here by putting a lusciously extravagant pot or two of Italian mostarda di Cremona on the table alongside: this is a hot and sweet preserve of mustardy candied fruits that gleam beautifully and taste both festive and fabulous.

Roast the turkey breast for 2-2½ hours, then check it is cooked with a turkey or meat thermometer. When cooked, it should read 75C. (If you’re leaving it to rest, as you should or to cool, you could take it out at 73C – it wil retain heat and continue to cook for a short while once out of the oven.)

Christmas turkey crown with bacon lattice recipe An average of 4.0 out of 5 stars from 22 ratings https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/food/ic/food_16x9_1600/recipes/christmas_turkey_crown_48767_16x9.jpg My Christmas turkey crown is perfect for a smaller gathering; it’s easy to carve, too. You can buy the crown on or off the bone: I prefer it on the bone as it gives more flavour and helps the crown stand upright. For this recipe you will need a large, deep roasting tin with a rack that fits in it (to sit the turkey on). 25g/1oz butter, softened1 tsp paprika 1 small lemon, zest finely grated1 large turkey crown, on the bone (about 3.5kg/7lb 11oz with wings, or 2.7kg/6lb without wings) 6 rashers smoked streaky bacon1 rosemary stalk 1 leek, thinly sliced450ml/16fl oz chicken stock200ml/7fl oz dry white winesalt and pepper 25g/1oz butter, softened 1 tsp paprika 1 small lemon, zest finely grated 1 large turkey crown, on the bone (about 3.5kg/7lb 11oz with wings, or 2.7kg/6lb without wings) 6 rashers smoked streaky bacon 1 rosemary stalk 1 leek, thinly sliced 450ml/16fl oz chicken stock 200ml/7fl oz dry white wine salt and pepper 3 tbsp plain flour 2 tsp redcurrant jellydash Worcestershire saucedash gravy browning 3 tbsp plain flour 2 tsp redcurrant jelly dash Worcestershire sauce dash gravy browning Method Preheat the oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7.Mix the butter, paprika and lemon zest in a small bowl, seasoning with salt and pepper.Pat the turkey skin dry using kitchen towel. Spread the butter mixture all over the breasts. Weave the bacon slices in a lattice pattern on top of the butter. Snip tiny sprigs of rosemary from the stalk and poke them through the bacon lattice into the breast skin, at random intervals.Scatter the leek slices in a large, deep roasting tin and pour over the stock and wine. Put a rack on top, sit the turkey crown on the rack and cover loosely with foil. Roast for 1 hour.Remove the foil and roast for a further 30 minutes, or until the turkey is golden-brown and cooked through. To test, insert a skewer into the thickest part of the meat – if the juices run clear, the bird is cooked. Transfer the turkey to a board, cover with kitchen foil and towels, and rest for at least 20 minutes (and up to an hour). Reserve the roasting tin for making the gravy later.Strain the leeks, wine and stock through a sieve into a large jug. Discard the leeks. To make the gravy, skim off the fat from the top of the jug. Put about 3 tablespoons of the fat into the roasting tin. Put the tin over a medium heat and sprinkle in the flour, whisking until smooth. Gradually pour in the liquid from the jug, whisking continuously to make a smooth gravy. Whisk in the redcurrant jelly, Worcestershire sauce, gravy browning and any juices from the resting turkey, check the seasoning and pour into a serving jug.Carve thin slices of turkey and serve with the gravy.

Recipe tips Resting is important: it allows the juices to settle and therefore stops the meat from drying out. To make the gravy, use a small balloon whisk, continuously whisking as the liquid is added, otherwise it may become lumpy. Carve using a sharp, long-bladed knife, ideally taking thin slices lengthways either side of the breast bone. Turkey crowns can be purchased with or without the wings. The wings can help the crown sit better in the roasting tray and are useful for making gravy. Supermarket turkeys rarely include the wings, so you'll probably need to buy yours from a butcher if you want them.

Leek and potato strudel recipe For the filo pastry, lightly oil a large bowl. Sift the flour, paprika and salt into a clean bowl and make a well in the centre. Add the egg and oil then gradually stir in 150ml/5fl oz water, or enough to make a soft dough.Lightly flour the work surface, turn out the dough and knead for 15 minutes (this dough is best kneaded by pulling it up from the counter and throwing it down - don’t leave it in contact with the counter for too long or it will stick). The dough is ready when it loses its stickiness and is elastic enough to be stretched by approximately 50cm. Place the dough in the oiled bowl, cover with cling film and leave to relax for an hour.For the leek and potato filling, steam the diced potatoes for approximately five minutes, or until they are cooked through but still hold their shape. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool. In a frying pan, cook the onions and leeks in a little olive oil until they are soft and the onions are translucent. Add the turmeric, chilli, harissa, potatoes, pistachios and cream to the pan. Remove from the heat, stir in the cheese and breadcrumbs, then season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6, line a baking tray with parchment paper and cover the work surface with a table cloth generously dusted with flour. Melt the butter and use a rolling pin to roll out the dough to a thickness of 1cm/½in. Stretch the dough by hand taking care not to tear it, pull the dough gently by running your hands under the dough from the centre outwards. The finished dough should be very thin, transparent enough to read through and at least 50cm wide.Trim the dough edges with scissors to make a neat rectangle then scatter the dough liberally with melted butter from a flicked pastry brush.Place the cooled filling at one of the narrow ends of the pastry and, using the table cloth to help, gently roll up the strudel. Fold the pastry edges under the strudel and place on the lined baking tray. Curve into a horseshoe shape if it is too big for the tray.Sprinkle with melted butter and scatter over the paprika and nigella seeds. Bake on the top shelf of the oven for 30-40 minutes or until golden brown.To serve, blend the coriander with 50ml warmed olive oil in a food processor. Transfer the strudel to a serving plate. Place the cherry tomatoes on a baking tray and brush with oil. Use a blowtorch to char the tomato skin then arrange around the strudel with the rocket, radicchio and coriander oil blend.

Beef and Stilton pie with celeriac mash and honey-roasted beetroot recipe For the rough puff pastry, sift the flour into a bowl and make a well in the centre. Add the butter and salt and rub into the flour with your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Gradually add the ice-cold water, mixing until the dough comes together (be careful not to overwork the dough). Roll the dough into a ball, wrap in cling film and chill in the fridge for 20 minutes. Remove the pastry from the fridge and unwrap it. Flour the work surface and roll out the pastry to a 40cm x 20cm/16in x 8in rectangle. Fold the pastry into thirds and give it a quarter turn. Roll the pastry out again into a 40cm x 20cm/16in x 8in rectangle as before and fold it into three again. Wrap the folded pastry in cling film and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes. Remove the pastry from the fridge and unwrap it. Repeat the rolling out and folding process another two times, turning the pastry by a quarter each time. After folding it for the last time, wrap again in cling film and chill in the fridge until needed. For the pie filling, place the beef, garlic, thyme, peppercorns and ale into a bowl. Cover with cling film and leave to marinate in the fridge for at least 2-3 hours, but preferably overnight. Remove the beef from the marinade, pat dry with kitchen paper and dredge in the seasoned flour. Strain the marinade through a fine sieve into a clean bowl and set aside. Heat the oil and one tablespoon of the butter in a flameproof casserole dish and fry the beef in small batches for 2-3 minutes each time, or until browned all over. Once the meat is browned, remove from the casserole dish and set aside. Return the casserole dish to the heat and fry the mushrooms and shallots for 4-5 minutes, or until softened. Return the beef and the reserved marinating liquid to the casserole and add the beef stock. Cover with a lid and gently simmer for 1½ hours, or until the beef is tender. Strain off half of the cooking liquid from the casserole dish and set aside to make gravy for serving. Crumble the Stilton into the casserole and stir until melted. Season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper and set aside to cool. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4. Grease four 10cm/4in chefs' rings and dust each with flour. Place the chefs' rings onto a baking tray and fill each with the beef and Stilton filling. On a floured work surface, roll out the puff pastry to a thickness of about 2.5cm/1in. Cut out four circles of pastry large enough to cover the chefs' rings with a bit of overhang. Brush the edges of the pastry with some of the beaten egg and place over the chefs' rings. Crimp the pastry to seal, then trim off any excess pastry, making sure there are no gaps between the chefs' rings and the pastry. Make a small hole in the middle of each pastry lid so allow steam to escape, then brush all over with the remaining beaten egg.Bake the pies in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is crisp and golden-brown. Meanwhile, place the reserved cooking liquid into a clean pan and simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until reduced to a gravy consistency. Stir in the remaining tablespoon of butter until melted, and the sauce is smooth and glossy. Keep warm. For the celeriac and mustard mash, place the celeriac and potatoes into separate pans of cold water and bring to the boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook the celeriac for 15-20 minutes and the potatoes for 10-12 minutes, or until both are tender. Drain well, then place both the celeriac and potatoes to one pan and place back over the heat for a few minutes to drive off any excess moisture. Mash the celeriac and potatoes together, then beat in the butter, the cream and the mustard until well combined. Season, to taste, with salt and white pepper. For the honey-roasted beetroot, preheat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7. Mix together the thyme, vinegar, olive oil and honey in a bowl until well combined. Using a small melon baller or small spoon, scoop out balls of the beetroot and place into the bowl with the honey mixture and season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Place the beetroot into a deep roasting tray and roast in the oven for 15 minutes, or until the beetroot is sticky and glazed. To serve, transfer the pies onto a serving plate using a fish slice or spatula. Carefully remove the chefs' rings. Spoon the celeriac and potato mash on the side. Spoon the honey-roasted beetroot balls alongside and serve with a small jug of the gravy. For the rough puff pastry, sift the flour into a bowl and make a well in the centre.

Bonfire toffee recipe An average of 4.8 out of 5 stars from 16 ratings https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/food/ic/food_16x9_1600/recipes/bonfire_toffee_21396_16x9.jpg A real British classic, this jaw-breaking treacle toffee dates back hundreds of years and is really easy to make. You will need a candy thermometer, preferably a digital one. 75g/3oz golden syrup75g/3oz black treacle150g/6oz light soft brown sugar75g/3oz butter¼ tsp cream of tartar 75g/3oz golden syrup 75g/3oz black treacle 150g/6oz light soft brown sugar 75g/3oz butter ¼ tsp cream of tartar Method Line a 15 x 20cm/6 x 8in baking tray with non-stick baking parchment.Measure all the ingredients into a deep, heavy-based saucepan. Place over a medium heat and stir occasionally until the butter is melted and the sugar has dissolved.When the mixture is smooth and well-combined, increase the heat and bring the mixture to a fast boil. When the mixture reaches 140C/285F, pour carefully into the lined tray. If you want even pieces, wait until the toffee is cool enough to handle, but elastic enough so that a finger pressed in the top leaves a slight indent (about 15-20 minutes depending on the room temperature). Partially cut the toffee into even pieces with an oiled knife. When it has cooled completely, break along these lines. Alternatively let the toffee cool completely, then break into shards with a toffee hammer or rolling pin.Store in an airtight container, with individual layers of toffee separated by baking parchment. If left exposed to humidity, the toffee will soften and stick together. Line a 15 x 20cm/6 x 8in baking tray with non-stick baking parchment.

Bramley apple and blackberry soufflé recipe An average of 3.6 out of 5 stars from 7 ratings https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/images/ic/832xn/p01qmfyt.jpg A delightful autumnal dessert from Michel Roux Jr that proves the dreaded soufflé is easier to prepare than you might think. Equipment and preparation: you will need 4 x 10cm/4in soufflé dishes. 250g/9oz frozen blackberries 50g/1¾oz caster sugar 250g/9oz frozen blackberries 50g/1¾oz caster sugar 2 Bramley apples, peeled, cored and roughly chopped2 tbsp caster sugarsqueeze of lemon juice½ tsp ground cinnamon1/8 nutmeg, grated 2 Bramley apples, peeled, cored and roughly chopped 2 tbsp caster sugar squeeze of lemon juice ½ tsp ground cinnamon 1/8 nutmeg, grated 40g/1½oz softened butter, for greasing115g/4oz caster sugar175ml/6fl oz milk1 vanilla pod, split lengthways4 medium free-range eggs, separated25g/1oz plain flour6 biscuits, such as gingernuts, soaked in a splash of brandy or whisky (optional) 40g/1½oz softened butter, for greasing 115g/4oz caster sugar 175ml/6fl oz milk 1 vanilla pod, split lengthways 4 medium free-range eggs, separated 25g/1oz plain flour 6 biscuits, such as gingernuts, soaked in a splash of brandy or whisky (optional) Method For the blackberry coulis, put the blackberries and sugar into a small pan with 100ml/3½fl oz water. Bring to the boil, then simmer for about five minutes, or until the berries break down. Remove from the heat and leave to cool slightly.Tip the fruit mixture into a blender and blend to a purée, then strain through a sieve, rubbing it through with the back of a spoon. Set aside until ready to serve. For the apple purée, put all the ingredients into a small saucepan and heat gently, stirring occasionally until the apples break down. Allow to cool slightly and then blend to a smooth purée, either using a hand-blender, or by tipping the mixture into a food processor or blender. Store any leftovers from this recipe in the fridge and use as sauce for roast pork or serve with yoghurt for breakfast.For the soufflé, butter four individual 10cm/4in soufflé dishes using upward strokes to encourage the soufflé mixture to rise. Coat the insides with 40g of the sugar. Heat the milk and 20g/¾oz of the sugar in a small pan. Scrape in the seeds from the vanilla pod and bring slowly to the boil, stirring frequently. Remove from the heat.Whisk the egg yolks and 15g/½oz of the sugar in a bowl to a ribbon consistency. (Ribbon consistency is when the egg yolks and sugar have thickened and increased in volume to a point where a trail of the mixture holds on the surface for a second before merging back in.) Stir in the flour. Pour the hot milk onto the yolks, stirring continuously with a whisk. Return to the pan and whisk over a low heat for one minute, then pour into a bowl, cover with cling film, and cool slightly. Stir in two tablespoons of the apple purée once cool.Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6 and put a baking tray inside to heat. Ensure that your whisking equipment is clean and free from grease - otherwise it may prevent the egg whites from rising. Beat the egg whites in a mixing bowl until thick and frothy, then add the remaining sugar and continue to beat until the egg whites form soft peaks when the whisk is removed from the bowl. It is crucial not to over-beat the egg whites. Immediately and confidently whisk one-third of the egg whites into the apple mixture, then delicately fold in the rest with a large spoon.Divide the mixture between the soufflé dishes to come level with the rim, burying the biscuits (if using) in the middle. Stand on the hot baking tray and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until risen a 2.5cm/1cm over the top of the dish and the top is golden-brown. Overcooking will cause the soufflés to collapse. Serve the soufflés as soon as they come out of the oven on warm plates. Make a well in the middle of the soufflé and pour in the coulis.

Recipe tips Use week-old or pasteurised egg whites if you can as these have less water content than fresh, which will allow them to foam more and make for a lighter soufflé. Coulis can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge and used in other desserts. It’s great over ice cream or yoghurt. It should keep for about three days.

Bring to the boil, then simmer for about five minutes, or until the berries break down. Remove from the heat and leave to cool slightly.Tip the fruit mixture into a blender and blend to a purée, then strain through a sieve, rubbing it through with the back of a spoon. Set aside until ready to serve. For the apple purée, put all the ingredients into a small saucepan and heat gently, stirring occasionally until the apples break down. Allow to cool slightly and then blend to a smooth purée, either using a hand-blender, or by tipping the mixture into a food processor or blender. Store any leftovers from this recipe in the fridge and use as sauce for roast pork or serve with yoghurt for breakfast.For the soufflé, butter four individual 10cm/4in soufflé dishes using upward strokes to encourage the soufflé mixture to rise. Coat the insides with 40g of the sugar. Heat the milk and 20g/¾oz of the sugar in a small pan. Scrape in the seeds from the vanilla pod and bring slowly to the boil, stirring frequently. Remove from the heat.Whisk the egg yolks and 15g/½oz of the sugar in a bowl to a ribbon consistency. (Ribbon consistency is when the egg yolks and sugar have thickened and increased in volume to a point where a trail of the mixture holds on the surface for a second before merging back in.) Stir in the flour. Pour the hot milk onto the yolks, stirring continuously with a whisk. Return to the pan and whisk over a low heat for one minute, then pour into a bowl, cover with cling film, and cool slightly. Stir in two tablespoons of the apple purée once cool.Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6 and put a baking tray inside to heat. Ensure that your whisking equipment is clean and free from grease - otherwise it may prevent the egg whites from rising. Beat the egg whites in a mixing bowl until thick and frothy, then add the remaining sugar and continue to beat until the egg whites form soft peaks when the whisk is removed from the bowl. It is crucial not to over-beat the egg whites. Immediately and confidently whisk one-third of the egg whites into the apple mixture, then delicately fold in the rest with a large spoon.Divide the mixture between the soufflé dishes to come level with the rim, burying the biscuits (if using) in the middle. Stand on the hot baking tray and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until risen a 2.5cm/1cm over the top of the dish and the top is golden-brown. Overcooking will cause the soufflés to collapse. Serve the soufflés as soon as they come out of the oven on warm plates. Make a well in the middle of the soufflé and pour in the coulis.

Recipe tips Use week-old or pasteurised egg whites if you can as these have less water content than fresh, which will allow them to foam more and make for a lighter soufflé. Coulis can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge and used in other desserts. It’s great over ice cream or yoghurt. It should keep for about three days.

Stir in the orange zest and juice to combine, then cover and set aside overnight until the fruit has absorbed all of the liquid.When the fruit has soaked, preheat the oven to 140C/120C Fan/Gas 1. Grease the inside of a 20cm/8in non-stick savarin cake tin with butter. Fold a large sheet of baking paper into a strip that is 3 layers thick and big enough to wrap around the outside of the tin making a high 'collar' (this will help the cake bake evenly and prevent it over-browning as it bakes). Secure the collar with string.Beat the sugar and butter in a free-standing food mixer or large bowl for at least 3-4 minutes, or until it has turned a light caramel colour and is fluffy. Crack in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Fold in the flour, mixed spice, ground ginger and the soaked fruit until completely combined. Spoon the cake mixture into the prepared tin and smooth the top using a palette knife. Bake the cake for 1½ hours, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean (if it does not, cook the cake for a further 10 minutes and check once more). Remove the cake from the oven and drizzle with the remaining whisky. Set aside to cool in the tin for 15 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack (see tip about feeding the cake).For the icing, in a free-standing food mixer, whisk together the icing sugar, egg white and glycerine until thick enough to hold its shape – this will take 3-4 minutes.

Charred courgettes with garlic yoghurt recipe An average of 4.0 out of 5 stars from 3 ratings The garlic, yoghurt and pistachios in this grilled courgette recipe add to its gut-friendly credentials. It also makes a completely delicious part of a veggie mezze. 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil3 courgettes, sliced into 15mm/⅝in thick rounds1 tsp white sugar1 tsp coarse black pepper1 small garlic bulb250g/9oz full-fat live Greek-style yoghurt (or plant-based yoghurt)salt40g/1½oz golden sultanas, soaked in warm water and drained, to serve40g/1½oz shelled pistachios, roughly chopped, to serve1 tsp dried rose petals, to serve (optional) 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil 3 courgettes, sliced into 15mm/⅝in thick rounds 1 tsp white sugar 1 tsp coarse black pepper 1 small garlic bulb 250g/9oz full-fat live Greek-style yoghurt (or plant-based yoghurt) salt 40g/1½oz golden sultanas, soaked in warm water and drained, to serve 40g/1½oz shelled pistachios, roughly chopped, to serve 1 tsp dried rose petals, to serve (optional) Method Preheat the oven to 240C/220C Fan/Gas 9. Drizzle 2 tablespoons olive oil as evenly as possible over the courgettes, then sprinkle over the sugar and season with salt and the coarse black pepper. Place the courgettes in a single layer on a large baking tray lined with baking paper (or two small baking trays). Slice off the top of the garlic bulb around 2cm/¾in from its stem and drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil into the cloves. Place the garlic bulb on the baking tray alongside the courgettes. Roast for about 30 minutes, or until deeply charred. Remove from the oven and leave to cool. Squeeze the roasted garlic to release the cooked garlic pods from the papery skin – you don't have to use them all if you don't like your food too garlicky but I tend to use most of it. Mix the garlic into the yoghurt and then season with a touch of salt. To serve, spread the yoghurt over a serving platter.

Christmas roast duck recipe Arrange the shelves of your oven so that there is space for the duck at the top and the potatoes on the shelf immediately underneath. Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4.Layer the potatoes and onions in an large roasting dish, seasoning each layer with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Pour over the stock, flattening the top layer down.Place the potatoes onto the lower shelf in the oven.Pierce the duck skin all over with a fork and stuff the neck end of the cavity with the satsuma halves and cinnamon stick. Rub the five-spice powder all over the skin and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.Place the duck directly onto the oven rack above the potatoes, so that the juices from the duck will drip onto the potatoes as they cook. If your dish with the potatoes is on the small side, it may be useful to put a very large empty tray on the bottom of the oven to catch any drips of fat.Roast for 1½-2 hours, or until the duck is cooked through and the potatoes are tender and golden-brown.Meanwhile, for the spiced cranberry apple sauce, bring the apples, cranberries and cider to the boil in a frying pan. Reduce the heat until simmering and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries have burst and the mixture has thickened. Season, to taste, with sugar, if too tart, then pour the sauce into a serving bowl and set aside.When the duck is cooked, remove it from the oven and set aside to rest for 10 minutes on a serving platter while you cook the cabbage. Pour enough water into the bottom of a large frying pan to reach 1cm/½in up the sides of the pan. Add half of the butter and bring to the boil. When the butter has melted, add the cabbage and boil until it has just wilted, stirring occasionally. Add the dried cranberries and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until most of the water has evaporated, then season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper.To serve, spoon the wilted cabbage (drained, if necessary) onto a serving platter and lay the roast duck on top.

Christmas tree pavlova recipe An average of 4.2 out of 5 stars from 5 ratings https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/food/ic/food_16x9_832/recipes/christmas_tree_pavlova_36017_16x9.jpg Pull a festive dessert out of the bag with James Martin's make-ahead Christmas tree-shaped pavlova. For this recipe you will need a hand-held mixer or a freestanding mixer and a piping bag. 6 free-range egg whites450g/1lb caster sugar1 tbsp cornflour1 tbsp white wine vinegar¼ tsp ground cloves½ tsp ground ginger1 cinnamon stick1 lemon, peeled1 orange, peeled400g/14oz fresh blackberries600ml/20fl oz double cream1 tbsp vanilla bean paste50ml/2fl oz crème de cassis 6 free-range egg whites 450g/1lb caster sugar 1 tbsp cornflour 1 tbsp white wine vinegar ¼ tsp ground cloves ½ tsp ground ginger 1 cinnamon stick 1 lemon, peeled 1 orange, peeled 400g/14oz fresh blackberries 600ml/20fl oz double cream 1 tbsp vanilla bean paste 50ml/2fl oz crème de cassis Method Preheat the oven to 110C/90C Fan/Gas ½. Line a large baking tray with silicone or baking paper. Whisk the egg whites in a clean bowl using an electric whisk, or in the bowl of a freestanding mixer, until soft peaks form when the whisk is removed. Add 300g/10½oz of the caster sugar and continue to whisk until the mixture is smooth and glossy and stiff peaks form when the whisk is removed. You should hear the machine dropping down a gear as the meringue mixture reaches the correct consistency. Reduce the speed of the whisks and add the cornflour and vinegar. Whisk until very stiff.Transfer the meringue mixture to a piping bag. Pipe an outline of a Christmas tree shape onto the prepared baking tray. Pipe a rectangular trunk at the bottom. Fill the outline with the remaining meringue mixture, then smooth the top using a palette knife.

Clementine sorbet recipe An average of 5.0 out of 5 stars from 4 ratings This clementine sorbet is a light and fresh dessert – often needed (though not always received) for Christmas. Liquid glucose is found in most supermarkets – it stops sugar crystals from forming, so prolongs the life of the sorbet. 150g/5½oz caster sugar50ml/2fl oz liquid glucose6 clementines or 3 blood oranges, zest only250ml/9fl oz clementine or blood orange juice2 tbsp Campari (optional) 150g/5½oz caster sugar 50ml/2fl oz liquid glucose 6 clementines or 3 blood oranges, zest only 250ml/9fl oz clementine or blood orange juice 2 tbsp Campari (optional) Method Put the caster sugar and liquid glucose into a saucepan with 200ml/7fl oz water and the citrus zest. Heat slowly, stirring until the sugar has dissolved, then bring to the boil and simmer for 2 minutes, before removing from the heat. Leave the sugar syrup to infuse with the zest until it has cooled to room temperature.Add the citrus juice, then strain everything through a sieve. Stir in the Campari (if using) then chill in the fridge for at least a couple of hours – alternatively put in the freezer for half an hour.To turn into sorbet, either churn in an ice cream maker until frozen, then decant to a freezer container. Alternatively, put in a shallow container and transfer to the freezer. Remove from the freezer every half hour and whisk thoroughly, preferably with a hand-held mixture, to get as much air into it as possible, until it is frozen so hard that it is not possible to do this anymore – you should be able to do this at least 3–4 times.To serve, remove from the freezer and put in the fridge half an hour before serving.

Courgette and ginger jam recipe An average of 3.2 out of 5 stars from 9 ratings https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/food/ic/food_16x9_1600/recipes/courgette_and_ginger_jam_07706_16x9.jpg This golden-green courgette and ginger jam is a brilliant way to use up an abundance of seasonal courgettes. It is quick and easy to make and surprisingly delicious, a bit like a gingery marmalade. You can use any type of courgette: green or yellow, round or long. If the courgettes are young with tender skin there is no need to peel them. If you choose not to peel green courgettes the jam will be flecked with green. Courgettes have barely any pectin and you will need to use jam sugar, which has added pectin and citric acid, to get the jam to set. 1.2kg/2lb 10oz courgettes (1kg/2lb 4oz prepared weight), any large halved and seeds removed, coarsely grated125g/4½oz fresh root ginger (100g/3½oz prepared weight), peeled and finely chopped or grated 2 unwaxed lemons, finely grated zest 100ml/3½fl oz lemon juice (2–3 lemons)750g/1lb 10oz jam sugar cooking oil (optional) 1.2kg/2lb 10oz courgettes (1kg/2lb 4oz prepared weight), any large halved and seeds removed, coarsely grated 125g/4½oz fresh root ginger (100g/3½oz prepared weight), peeled and finely chopped or grated 2 unwaxed lemons, finely grated zest 100ml/3½fl oz lemon juice (2–3 lemons) 750g/1lb 10oz jam sugar cooking oil (optional) Method Put the grated courgettes, ginger, lemon zest and juice in a large heavy-based pan or preserving pan. Place over a low heat for 4–5 minutes, stirring to prevent the mixture from sticking while the juices draw out. Add the sugar, a third at a time, stirring until it has completely dissolved. Turn up the heat to a steady boil for 7–8 minutes until the mixture is glossy and clear; it will thicken and the boil will be slower. Using jam sugar should ensure the jam will set. Remove from the heat and gently stir (in one direction only) to disperse any foam, adding a drop or two of oil if it doesn’t disperse. Tip the jam into a wide-necked jug with a good pouring lip, then fill the warm sterilised jars to the brim and immediately seal with screwtop lids. Store in a cool, dark, dry place for up to a year. Once opened keep in the fridge and use within 6 weeks. Put the grated courgettes, ginger, lemon zest and juice in a large heavy-based pan or preserving pan.

Recipe tips To sterilise the jars and lids, put them through a hot (at least 60C) dishwasher cycle. Do not dry them with a tea towel, leave them to air dry. Alternatively, preheat the oven to 140C/120C Fan/Gas 1. Wash the jars and lids in hot soapy water and place them upside down in the oven for 15 minutes. The easiest way to peel ginger is with the rounded end of a teaspoon.

Recipe tips There are some recipes which suggest a bain marie is necessary to cook bread and butter pudding, but we’ve never bothered and we don’t think it suffers for it. There are also recipes which make the custard before pouring it over the bread – again, we just don’t see the point, it sets perfectly anyway." }, "content_info": { "domain": "Food & Cooking", "subdomain": "Recipes" } }

Gnudi with arrabiata sauce recipe An average of 5.0 out of 5 stars from 1 rating Gnudi are a type of gnocchi made with ricotta and a sprinkling of Parmesan for flavour. They need to be left in the fridge for at least eight hours before cooking. 300g/10½oz ricotta, drained50g/1¾oz Parmesan, finely gratedfreshly grated nutmegsalt, to tasteabout 250g/9oz semolina, for dustingolive oil, for drizzing 300g/10½oz ricotta, drained 50g/1¾oz Parmesan, finely grated freshly grated nutmeg salt, to taste about 250g/9oz semolina, for dusting olive oil, for drizzing 2 tbsp olive oil2 garlic cloves, very finely chopped or crushed1 tsp dried chilli flakes500g/1lb 2oz fresh tomatoes, peeled and puréed (or tinned equivalent)pinch sugar (optional)handful basil leavessalt and freshly ground black pepper 2 tbsp olive oil 2 garlic cloves, very finely chopped or crushed 1 tsp dried chilli flakes 500g/1lb 2oz fresh tomatoes, peeled and puréed (or tinned equivalent) pinch sugar (optional) handful basil leaves salt and freshly ground black pepper grated Parmesanbasil leaves grated Parmesan basil leaves Method Place the ricotta in a large bowl and break up with a fork. Add the Parmesan and nutmeg and season with salt. Mix together thoroughly.Put half of the semolina into a roasting dish or tray. Wet the palm of your hands and dip in the semolina – this will help the ricotta from sticking too much. Shape heaped teaspoons of the mixture into small dumplings – or if you want to avoid mess, use two teaspoons to make quenelles. You should end up with between 24-30 dumplings, depending how generous you are. Drop the dumplings into the semolina and pour over the remaining semolina, making sure they are completely covered.Cover the tray and put in the fridge for at least 8 hours, but preferably overnight. When you are ready to cook, remove the gnudi from and pat off any loose semolina. For the sauce, heat the olive oil in a large saucepan and add the garlic. Cook very gently for 2-3 minutes, then add the chilli flakes and tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper, then bring to the boil and simmer until the sauce has reduced down – you don’t want it too thick, it needs to be fairly liquid to go well with the gnudi. Taste and add a pinch of sugar if you think if it needs it, then stir in the fresh basil. To cook the gnudi, bring a large pan of salted water to the boil. Turn down to a simmer, add the gnudi, all at once, and leave to cook. When the gnudi start floating, they will be done – this will take around 4–5 minutes. Remove them carefully with a slotted spoon (be careful, they are fragile). Drizzle with a little olive oil.To serve, flood a serving plate with sauce and drop the dumplings on top.

Lamb belly with English asparagus and wild garlic recipe To make the lamb belly, carefully butterfly the lamb belly using a sharp knife. Begin by cutting down one side of the lamb belly lengthwise, being careful not to cut any holes in the two sides of the meat. Once you have gotten three quarters of the way, open it out like a book. Flatten the lamb a bit to make it easier to roll by placing cling film on top of the belly and hitting lightly with a meat paddle (or rolling pin). Again, be careful not to put any holes in the meat. Place the lamb in the fridge.To make the lamb stuffing, place the mince, garlic, mace, shallot, rosemary and cream in the bowl of a food mixer and mix together with a paddle until it comes together really well. Cover a work surface with cling film. Lay the belly out flat and spread with the mustard. Then spread the lamb stuffing evenly over the belly, leaving a 5cm/2in gap at the top. Lay wild garlic leaves on top of the filling. Roll the lamb belly up tightly using the cling film to help. Place in the fridge for 2 hours to firm up (or leave in the fridge overnight if preparing the lamb belly the day before).Remove from the fridge and carefully remove the cling film. Tie it together with butcher’s string. Wrap kitchen foil around each end of the rolled lamb (this stops the filling from coming out of the sides). Preheat the oven to 150C/130C Fan/Gas 2.Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat and fry the belly, turning to colour all over. Once it is golden all over, remove from the pan and place in a deep roasting tin with the carrots. Add the mushrooms to the frying pan and cook for 5 minutes, then deglaze with the red wine followed by the stock. Pour this over the lamb and carrots. Cover the roasting tin with baking paper and kitchen foil. Roast in the oven for 2½ hours, turning the meat every hour to evenly cook. Leave to rest for 20 minutes. Strain the juices into a new saucepan and bring to the boil, simmer until the volume of the liquid is reduced to a gravy consistency. Set aside to keep warm. Re-heat the lamb in the oven for 4 minutes before carving into 16 slices. (Remember to remove the strings before carving.) Meanwhile, to make the mash, place the potatoes in a large saucepan with water and salt. Bring to the boil, skimming off any foam that forms on top of the water, and reduce the heat to a strong simmer. Once the potatoes are tender, drain and leave to steam dry for 5 minutes.Bring the milk up to the boil in a large saucepan. Add half of the butter to the milk, followed by the potatoes and begin to mash. Pass the mash through a fine sieve into a clean saucepan (or do this in a food processor to save time) to create a very smooth mashed potato. Return to the heat and add the rest of the butter to the mash. If the mash gets too thick, add a touch more milk to achieve the desired consistency. To make the asparagus, heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat and add the asparagus with salt. Lightly fry without adding any colour then add 100ml/3½fl oz water and the butter. Stir the pan to create a lovely emulsion. Cook for 2 minutes or until the asparagus is just cooked. Add the wild garlic, lemon zest and juice and season with pepper. To serve, place four slices of the lamb belly on each plate followed by the asparagus spears, carrots, mushrooms and wild garlic leaves. Serve the gravy on the side next to the mash.

Lamb shanks pie recipe Preheat the oven to 170C/150C Fan/Gas 3½.Season the lamb shanks all over with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Heat the oil in a large, flameproof casserole over a high heat. Add the lamb shanks and fry for a few seconds on all sides, or until browned all over. Remove from the casserole and set aside.Reduce the heat to medium, add the onions and fry for 2-3 minutes, or until softened. Add the garlic and fry for a further 1-2 minutes. Stir in the flour so it forms a paste with the pan juices. Continue cooking for a minute, then slowly pour in the wine and stock, stirring well to combine it with the flour paste. Add the potatoes, carrots, celery, bay leaves, rosemary and thyme and bring the mixture to the boil. Reduce the heat until the mixture is simmering.Stir in the drained beans, then return the lamb shanks to the casserole and bring the mixture back to simmering point. Cover the casserole with the lid and transfer to the oven for 2 hours. Alternatively, simmer over a low heat on the hob.When the meat on the lamb shanks comes away easily from the bone but is not falling off it, remove the casserole from the oven (or hob).Transfer the casserole contents to a large pie dish, standing the lamb shanks upright. Set aside to cool completely. (The lamb must be completely cooled before you top it with the pastry.)Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4.Brush the inside and outside of the rim of the pie dish with some of the beaten egg and egg yolk.Roll the pastry out onto a lightly floured work surface until it is 5cm/2in bigger than the diameter of the pie dish and about 0.5cm/¼in thick.Carefully lay the pastry over the lamb shanks in the pie dish. Using a sharp knife, make four small slits in the pastry where the lamb shank bones are, then gently push the pastry around the bones so that they stick through it. Crimp the pastry around the edge of the pie dish to seal it to the outside rim. Brush the pastry all over with the remaining beaten egg and sprinkle the top with salt. Bake the pie in the oven for 45-60 minutes, or until the pastry has risen and is golden-brown all over and the filling is hot. Just before serving, cook the peas in a pan of salted, boiling water for 3-4 minutes, or until tender. Drain and serve with the pie. Preheat the oven to 170C/150C Fan/Gas 3½.

Marmalade-glazed gammon recipe Place the gammon into a large, heavy-based, lidded saucepan with the lemon, orange, apple, cinnamon stick, onion, chillies and 2 of the star anise. Pour in enough water to cover the gammon.Cover the pan with the lid, place onto the heat, bring the water to the boil, then turn the heat down until simmering. Simmer for 2 hours, or until the meat is tender, then set aside to cool in the cooking liquid.Preheat the oven to 230C/210C Fan/Gas 7.In a small pan, heat the marmalade, honey, mustard, the remaining 3 star anise and the cloves in a small pan until the preserves have melted, then stir and set aside.Lift the cooled ham from the cooking liquid and transfer to a roasting tin. Carve the layer of fat on top of the ham in a criss-cross pattern, then spread the marmalade glaze over the top. Return to the oven for a further 20 minutes, basting with the glaze every 5-8 minutes, until the surface of the gammon is golden-brown and just starting to blacken at the edge.Meanwhile, boil the potatoes in a saucepan of salted water for 10-15 minutes, or until just tender, then drain and return to the pan. Stir in the butter to coat, then season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Keep warm.For the parsley sauce, pour the milk into a saucepan and add the clove-studded onion halves.

Wide noodles with lamb shank in aromatic broth recipe An average of 3.5 out of 5 stars from 25 ratings https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/food/ic/food_16x9_832/recipes/wide_noodles_with_lamb_03003_16x9.jpg While I could never have a recipe in any book I wrote that I didn’t love inordinately, this is just one of those special ones that fills me with a sense of glad-hearted awe. It’s not too much to claim for it: it’s almost ridiculously easy to make – I relish the quiet ceremony of its slow-cooking preparation – and it’s both comforting and enlivening to eat. You do need to plan for it, as the gorgeous broth has to be made a day in advance (longer if you want), but it’s a very straightforward procedure once you’ve got the key ingredients in stock. 1 tbsp gochujang paste2 tsp sea salt flakes (or 1 tsp fine sea salt), plus extra for cooking1 tsp allspice berries1 tsp cumin seeds1 star anise1 lamb shank25g/1oz piece fresh root ginger, peeled if preferred and cut into coins1 carrot, peeled if preferred and cut into 4 pieces2 large garlic cloves, bruised with the flat of a wide-bladed knife70g/2½oz banana shallots, cut in half or or ½ onion, roughly chopped175g/6oz dried pappardelle (not egg pappardelle) or other wide noodles200g/7oz Savoy cabbage, shreddedcrispy chilli oil, to serve 1 tbsp gochujang paste 2 tsp sea salt flakes (or 1 tsp fine sea salt), plus extra for cooking 1 tsp allspice berries 1 tsp cumin seeds 1 star anise 1 lamb shank 25g/1oz piece fresh root ginger, peeled if preferred and cut into coins 1 carrot, peeled if preferred and cut into 4 pieces 2 large garlic cloves, bruised with the flat of a wide-bladed knife 70g/2½oz banana shallots, cut in half or or ½ onion, roughly chopped 175g/6oz dried pappardelle (not egg pappardelle) or other wide noodles 200g/7oz Savoy cabbage, shredded crispy chilli oil, to serve Method Preheat the oven to 150C/130C Fan/Gas 2. Pour 1 litre/1¾ pint of cold water into a small casserole with a tightly fitting lid and stir in the gochujang paste until dissolved. Add the salt, allspice, cumin seeds and star anise. Now add the lamb shank to the pot and place over a medium heat.Add the ginger, carrot, garlic and shallots to the pot. Once everything’s in the pot, the lamb shank should be just covered. If it isn’t, add some more water. Bring to the boil then clamp on the lid and cook in the oven for 2–2½ hours, by which time the meat should be very tender indeed and ready to fall off the bone. Using tongs, transfer the lamb shank to a large bowl, then strain the liquid into a separate bowl, discarding the vegetables. Leave both the lamb and the stock to cool then chill in the fridge overnight.The next day, remove the solidified fat from the top of the liquid and shred the meat – not too finely, you don’t want stringiness. Place the meat in a small saucepan and pour over the liquid. Place the lamb mixture over a very low heat so that it warms gently, though you do want it to be piping hot by the time the pasta and cabbage are cooked. Meanwhile, bring some water to the boil in a large saucepan. When the water is boiling, add salt. Add the pappardelle and when it’s 3 minutes away from its full cooking time (check the packet for instructions), add the cabbage and stir well. When both cabbage and pasta are cooked, drain and divide between 2 noodle bowls.Using a slotted spoon, lift out the hot lamb and share between the two bowls, then ladle the broth on top. Add 1 teaspoon of crispy chilli oil to each bowl and take both bowls to the table, making sure you come back for the chilli oil so you can add more as you eat. Preheat the oven to 150C/130C Fan/Gas 2. Pour 1 litre/1¾ pint of cold water into a small casserole with a tightly fitting lid and stir in the gochujang paste until dissolved.

Recipe tips If you can’t get hold of gochujang, I dare say a teaspoon of dried chilli flakes would serve as a stand-in; it certainly would bring the heat (stir miso into the broth before eating). Should you need to feed more, then bulk up as needed; though while I often double the amount of lamb shanks if all three of us are home and also double the liquid, gochujang, and most other of the ingredients, I just add one and a half times the spices.

You do need to plan for it, as the gorgeous broth has to be made a day in advance (longer if you want), but it’s a very straightforward procedure once you’ve got the key ingredients in stock. 1 tbsp gochujang paste2 tsp sea salt flakes (or 1 tsp fine sea salt), plus extra for cooking1 tsp allspice berries1 tsp cumin seeds1 star anise1 lamb shank25g/1oz piece fresh root ginger, peeled if preferred and cut into coins1 carrot, peeled if preferred and cut into 4 pieces2 large garlic cloves, bruised with the flat of a wide-bladed knife70g/2½oz banana shallots, cut in half or or ½ onion, roughly chopped175g/6oz dried pappardelle (not egg pappardelle) or other wide noodles200g/7oz Savoy cabbage, shreddedcrispy chilli oil, to serve 1 tbsp gochujang paste 2 tsp sea salt flakes (or 1 tsp fine sea salt), plus extra for cooking 1 tsp allspice berries 1 tsp cumin seeds 1 star anise 1 lamb shank 25g/1oz piece fresh root ginger, peeled if preferred and cut into coins 1 carrot, peeled if preferred and cut into 4 pieces 2 large garlic cloves, bruised with the flat of a wide-bladed knife 70g/2½oz banana shallots, cut in half or or ½ onion, roughly chopped 175g/6oz dried pappardelle (not egg pappardelle) or other wide noodles 200g/7oz Savoy cabbage, shredded crispy chilli oil, to serve Method Preheat the oven to 150C/130C Fan/Gas 2. Pour 1 litre/1¾ pint of cold water into a small casserole with a tightly fitting lid and stir in the gochujang paste until dissolved. Add the salt, allspice, cumin seeds and star anise. Now add the lamb shank to the pot and place over a medium heat.Add the ginger, carrot, garlic and shallots to the pot. Once everything’s in the pot, the lamb shank should be just covered. If it isn’t, add some more water. Bring to the boil then clamp on the lid and cook in the oven for 2–2½ hours, by which time the meat should be very tender indeed and ready to fall off the bone. Using tongs, transfer the lamb shank to a large bowl, then strain the liquid into a separate bowl, discarding the vegetables. Leave both the lamb and the stock to cool then chill in the fridge overnight.The next day, remove the solidified fat from the top of the liquid and shred the meat – not too finely, you don’t want stringiness. Place the meat in a small saucepan and pour over the liquid. Place the lamb mixture over a very low heat so that it warms gently, though you do want it to be piping hot by the time the pasta and cabbage are cooked. Meanwhile, bring some water to the boil in a large saucepan. When the water is boiling, add salt. Add the pappardelle and when it’s 3 minutes away from its full cooking time (check the packet for instructions), add the cabbage and stir well. When both cabbage and pasta are cooked, drain and divide between 2 noodle bowls.Using a slotted spoon, lift out the hot lamb and share between the two bowls, then ladle the broth on top. Add 1 teaspoon of crispy chilli oil to each bowl and take both bowls to the table, making sure you come back for the chilli oil so you can add more as you eat.

Recipe tips If you can’t get hold of gochujang, I dare say a teaspoon of dried chilli flakes would serve as a stand-in; it certainly would bring the heat (stir miso into the broth before eating). Should you need to feed more, then bulk up as needed; though while I often double the amount of lamb shanks if all three of us are home and also double the liquid, gochujang, and most other of the ingredients, I just add one and a half times the spices." }, "content_info": { "domain": "Food & Cooking", "subdomain": "Recipes" } }

Blood orange Halloween pumpkin pie recipe Put all the pecan nuts for the pastry and the meringue in a food processor and blend until fine. Weigh out 15g/½oz for the pastry and set aside the remainder.For the pastry, add the flour, salt and butter to the food processor. Tip in the pecan nuts and pulse until the ingredients are combined and resemble breadcrumbs. Add a tablespoon of cold water and pulse again. Keep adding more water a tablespoon at a time until the mixture comes together as a dough. Tip out the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knead lightly until smooth. Wrap in cling film and refrigerate for 10–15 minutes.Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4. Grease a 20cm/8in pie dish.For the filling, lightly beat the eggs in a large mixing bowl. Add the pumpkin purée, sugar, cinnamon, orange zest and juice. Beat until combined. Pour in the evaporated milk and then blend everything together using a handheld blender. Set aside.Roll out the dough on a lightly floured work surface until 5mm/¼in thick. Line the pie dish with the pastry, taking care to push the pastry into the edges. Leave any excess overhanging and lightly prick the base using a fork (do not go through to the tin). Place on a baking tray.Cover the pastry with baking paper and fill with ceramic baking beads or uncooked rice. Bake on the middle shelf for 10 minutes or until the pastry is dry. Remove from the oven and trim any excess pastry so that they are no higher than the pie tin.Pour in the filling so that only 5mm/¼in of the pastry can be seen at the top.Increase the oven temperature to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Bake the pie in the centre of the oven for 15 minutes. Turn the oven down to 160C/140C Fan/Gas 3 and bake for a further 30 minutes or until the filling is firm (a slight wobble in the centre is fine).For the meringue, put the egg whites in the bowl of a large freestanding mixer fitted with a whisk attachment (you can also use a mixing bowl and a hand mixer, but it is much easier and safer to add the syrup when you have both hands free). Place the sugar and 100ml/3½fl oz water in a saucepan. Place over a low heat and use a sugar thermometer to measure the temperature of the syrup. When the syrup mixture reaches 100C, begin whisking the egg whites.When the syrup reaches 116C, remove it from the heat. With the motor running, slowly pour the syrup down the side of the bowl into the mixer, taking care not to touch the whisk as it may splash. Continue to whisk until shiny and stiff peaks form when the whisk is removed.Fold the reserved ground pecans into the meringue using a large metal spoon. After baking, leave the pie to cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Spoon the meringue onto the pie and use a palette knife to smooth into a dome. Use a chef’s blowtorch to brown the top of the meringue.For the syrup, combine the orange juice and sugar in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Measure the temperature using a sugar thermometer and when it reaches 114C remove it from the heat. To decorate the pie, dip a fork into the caramel and carefully drizzle over the pie in a cross-hatch pattern (melted sugar is very hot – take care not to burn yourself). Serve the pie warm.

Serve the pie warm." }, "content_info": { "domain": "Food & Cooking", "subdomain": "Recipes" } }

Sardinian couscous with clams recipe An average of 4.8 out of 5 stars from 5 ratings https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/food/ic/food_16x9_832/recipes/sardinian_couscous_with_50749_16x9.jpg At the time of writing, I confess you will need to go to an Italian deli or specialist food outlet for fregola, the sun-dried and toasted Sardinian “couscous” specified for this recipe. I wouldn’t substitute regular couscous for the fregola, which is rather more like dense pasta peas than semolina grains, and thus most comparable to the larger Midde-Eastern or Israeli couscous which could be used in its stead. 1kg/2lb 4oz small clams, such as palourde1 tbsp olive oil1 banana shallot, finely chopped2 cloves garlic, peeled½ tsp dried chilli flakes1 tbsp tomato purée750ml/1¼ pint light chicken stock4 tbsp dry red vermouth200g/7oz fregola2 tbsp chopped parsley, plus more for sprinkling 1kg/2lb 4oz small clams, such as palourde 1 tbsp olive oil 1 banana shallot, finely chopped 2 cloves garlic, peeled ½ tsp dried chilli flakes 1 tbsp tomato purée 750ml/1¼ pint light chicken stock 4 tbsp dry red vermouth 200g/7oz fregola 2 tbsp chopped parsley, plus more for sprinkling Method Soak the clams in a large bowl of cold water, and sort through them, discarding any shells that remain open or are cracked or smashed.Heat the oil in a large heavy-based pan that comes with a lid, then add the chopped shallot, stirring for a minute, grate in the garlic, and add the chilli flakes, stirring again over the heat so that it sizzles, though not long enough to let the garlic brown.Stir in the tomato purée, then add the stock and the vermouth and let it come to the boil.Add the fregola – it should be covered completely by the liquid – and let it simmer, still uncovered, for 10–12 minutes (or as instructed on the fregola packet).Check that the fregola is nearly ready and then add the drained clams and cover the pan with the lid. Leave to cook for three minutes at a fast simmer, then uncover the pan to check that the clams have opened. Any clams that, once cooked, stay closed should be discarded.Sprinkle in the chopped parsley and stir to let everything combine before ladling into four warmed bowls to serve, sprinkling with a little more chopped parsley as you go.
