Rustic Spanish bread (Pan Rustico) recipe An average of 4.2 out of 5 stars from 22 ratings https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/food/ic/food_16x9_1600/recipes/rustic_spanish_bread_pan_97488_16x9.jpg The Spanish love their bread and after tasting this, so do we! With the starter mix, it’s halfway to a sourdough and it’s a good old-fashioned hearty bread that keeps well. 150ml/5fl oz/¼ pint warm water1 tsp caster sugar3 tsp fast-action dried yeast125g/4½oz strong white flour 150ml/5fl oz/¼ pint warm water 1 tsp caster sugar 3 tsp fast-action dried yeast 125g/4½oz strong white flour 200ml/7fl oz/⅓ pint warm water1 tsp caster sugar1 tsp fast-action dried yeast225g/8oz strong white flour, plus extra for dusting100g/3½oz strong wholemeal flour1 tsp salt1 tbsp olive oil, plus extra for greasing 200ml/7fl oz/⅓ pint warm water 1 tsp caster sugar 1 tsp fast-action dried yeast 225g/8oz strong white flour, plus extra for dusting 100g/3½oz strong wholemeal flour 1 tsp salt 1 tbsp olive oil, plus extra for greasing Method For the starter, pour the water into a medium bowl and stir in the sugar. Lightly stir in the yeast and leave in a warm place for about 10 minutes or until a beige foam floats on the surface. Stir in the flour to make a thick paste, then cover with cling film and leave at room temperature for 24 hours. At the end of the 24 hours the paste will smell yeasty and slightly fermented – a bit like beer.For the bread dough, pour the water into a jug and stir in the sugar. Lightly stir in the yeast and leave in a warm place for about 10 minutes or until a beige foam floats on the surface. Stir the flours and salt together in a large bowl, then make a well in the centre and add the yeast and water mixture, the starter dough and the oil. Mix with a wooden spoon and then with your hands until the mixture comes together and forms a slightly lumpy and sticky dough. If the dough feels a little dry, add another tablespoon or two of water.Transfer the dough to a work surface and knead for a good 10 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic. As you knead, push the dough away from you with the heel of your hand to stretch it as long as possible, then fold it back towards you. This will help strengthen the flour and trap air bubbles inside the loaf. Resist the temptation to add too much extra flour as it could make the dough dry. You should feel the dough change in texture as you work, so don’t be afraid to be fairly robust with your stretching and folding. Put the dough in an oiled mixing bowl, cover it loosely with oiled cling film or an upside-down, oiled plate, and leave it to rise for about an hour or until it has doubled in size.Line a baking tray with parchment and dust with flour.Loosen the dough with a spatula and tip it on to the baking tray. Stretch the dough very gently until it’s about 30cm/12in long, then fold it in half and stretch again. Do the same thing twice more. This should help to give the dough a more holey texture. After the third stretch, shape the dough into a long loaf shape and slash the top a few times with a sharp knife. Dust with a little flour and leave to prove in a warm place for 45–60 minutes or until it has risen again and feels light and puffy. Preheat the oven to 240C/450F/Gas 8.Bake the loaf for 20–25 minutes or until golden-brown and crusty. The base should sound hollow when tapped. Cool on a wire rack.

Bonfire night brioche recipe For the brioche, heat the milk to 37C/99F, pour it into a measuring jug and add the sachet of yeast. Cover with cling film and set aside for 10 minutes. Beat the eggs and add the sugar and vanilla paste. Sieve the flour into a large bowl and add the salt and nutmeg. Make a well in the flour and pour in the milk mixture. Use your hands to bring the dough together - it will be very sticky and wet. Attach a dough hook to a freestanding mixer, add the dough and begin to knead. In a separate bowl beat the cinnamon into the butter until combined, then add to the dough mix as it is being kneaded. When all the butter has been incorporated into the dough, flour the work surface and knead the dough by hand until it is smooth, soft and elastic. Transfer to an oiled bowl, cover with cling film and refrigerate overnight.For the butterscotch, put a pan over a medium heat. Add the sugar, cream, vanilla, cream of tartar and 75ml/2½fl oz water. Stir and cook the butterscotch until it reaches 114C (use a sugar thermometer for this), add the butter and keep checking the temperature.

It is designed to be made in conjunction with a low-cost store-cupboard. 300ml/10fl oz just-boiled water from a kettle½ vegetable or chicken stock cube, crumbled100g/3½oz dried penne or other pasta shapes1 tsp vegetable oil125g/4½oz fresh cherry tomatoes, halved1 garlic clove, crushed¼ tsp dried chilli flakes, or according to taste2–3 tbsp double cream freshly ground black pepperfresh parsley or basil leaves, to garnish (optional) 300ml/10fl oz just-boiled water from a kettle ½ vegetable or chicken stock cube, crumbled 100g/3½oz dried penne or other pasta shapes 1 tsp vegetable oil 125g/4½oz fresh cherry tomatoes, halved 1 garlic clove, crushed ¼ tsp dried chilli flakes, or according to taste 2–3 tbsp double cream freshly ground black pepper fresh parsley or basil leaves, to garnish (optional) Method Pour the water into a large microwaveable bowl, stir in the stock cube until dissolved and then stir in the pasta and oil. The bowl needs to be large enough for the water to boil and rise in the bowl – so ideally at least 2 litres/3½ pints (see Tip below). Cover the bowl with a microwaveable lid or dinner plate and stand on a second plate to catch any drips. Cook on HIGH for 11 minutes (1000W) or 12 minutes (800W), stirring halfway, or until the pasta is tender but retains just a little ‘bite’. (There should be a few tablespoons of liquid left in the bowl at the end of the cooking time, but there is no need to drain them.)Stir in the tomatoes, garlic and chilli flakes. Season with lots of black pepper. Cover and cook on HIGH for a further 2 minutes 30 seconds (1000W) or 3 minutes (800W), or until the tomatoes are soft but still holding their shape. Tip into a shallow bowl and drizzle with the cream. Season with more black pepper and sprinkle with the fresh herbs, if using, before serving.

Recipe tips If you don’t have a large enough bowl in which to cook the pasta in the microwave, boil as usual then drain and add to a shallow microwaveable serving bowl, along with 100ml/3½fl oz hot vegetable or chicken stock, or pasta cooking water. Add the tomatoes, garlic and chilli and continue as above. If you don’t have any cherry tomatoes, try using larger tomatoes roughly chopped, or quartered instead. Sprinkle the finished pasta with grated cheese if you have some handy. If you fancy a creamier sauce, add some extra double cream but pop the dish back in the microwave for a few seconds on HIGH to heat through before serving.

Egg tortilla pie recipe An average of 4.1 out of 5 stars from 12 ratings https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/food/ic/food_16x9_1600/recipes/egg_tortilla_pie_60712_16x9.jpg This recipe for an easy, throw-it-all-together supper or bolstering weekend breakfast comes from my long-time kitchen companion, Hettie Potter, and very grateful I am, too. Impressively, she makes this a single portion. I, no modest eater, feel it is perfectly substantial for two, though it is a little tricky to divide. Think of this as a pie that uses flour tortillas in place of pastry. 2 tsp olive oil 2 large flour tortillas 1–2 slices ham, torn into pieces 2 large free-range eggs, at room temperature Pinch sea salt flakes 75g/2½oz cheddar, gratedhot sauce, to taste 2 tsp olive oil 2 large flour tortillas 1–2 slices ham, torn into pieces 2 large free-range eggs, at room temperature Pinch sea salt flakes 75g/2½oz cheddar, grated hot sauce, to taste Method Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Use 1 teaspoon of the oil to lightly grease the base and sides of a shallow, round, ovenproof dish. Line it with one of the tortillas, making sure it comes up the sides a little, creating a tortilla bowl. Scatter over the ham, crack in the eggs – sprinkling the yolks with a little salt – and then spread about a third of the cheese on top. Brush one side of the second tortilla with oil and place oiled-side up, loosely on top of the filling. Press the edges of the tortillas together, pushing them down into the dish and up the sides, then brush these edges with a little more oil. Top with the remaining cheese, then add a few squeezes or shakes of hot sauce, depending on how fiery you want this to be. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes, by which time the eggs will be cooked inside, the cheese melted, and the edges of the tortilla crust crisped and browned. Ovens do vary, so you may find you need to alter the cooking time. Eat immediately. This is not a huge problem. Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6.

Recipe tips Although I have given precise measures for what to chuck in, consider them guidance only. The same goes for the ingredients themselves: replace the ham with sliced leftover sausages or leave it out altogether, and use any cheese you like. All that really matters is that you can form a pie: whatever size tortillas you use, they have to be able to line your dish, and come at least 2cm/1in up the sides.

Slowly mix in 225ml/8fl oz (or as much water as required), until a stiff dough is formed. Knead on a clean work surface for 5–10 minutes, until the dough is elastic and shiny. Cover with a damp cloth and set aside for about 1 hour. To make the filling, heat the oil in a large saucepan and add the mince. Once the mince turns brown, add the onion and some salt. Cook the onion until softened. Add the spices and garlic and cook for a few minutes. Season with salt and pepper and toss in the coriander. Set aside and leave to cool. Divide the dough into four small balls and roll out each ball to a thickness of 1.5mm. Cut into 10cm/4in squares and, into each square, place 1 heaped teaspoon of the mince mixture. Take two opposite corners of the dough and bring the corners together to join in the centre, nipping together firmly between your fingers. Use a little bit of water on each side to ensure the corners stick and then bring together the other two corners in the same manner. Note that the mantu should not be entirely closed, as the steam has to be penetrate and cook the filling! Steam the mantu in a metal or bamboo steamer until the dumpling shells becomes translucent and almost clear.To make the tomato and lentil sauce, heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium–high heat and fry the onion. Add some salt and, once the onions turn translucent, add the tomato purée. Allow the onions to cook down and caramelise. Add the spices and garlic, then pour in 200ml/7fl oz water and bring to a simmer. Add the chana dal to the tomato sauce or boil it separately until soft – about 15–20 minutes. (The dal takes longer to cook in the tomato sauce, so I would recommend quickly boiling it in a small saucepan separately and then adding it to the tomato sauce). Season with salt and pepper. To make the yoghurt sauce, combine the yoghurt, mint and garlic in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.To serve, add a layer of the yoghurt sauce to a serving dish, then add the mantu.

Meat and cabbage buns (Bierocks) recipe For the dough, stir the sugar into the warm water in a bowl. Sprinkle over the yeast and stir it lightly, then leave for 10 minutes until a light foam floats on the surface. Mix the flour and salt in a bowl and make a well in the centre. Stir the oil into the yeast mixture and slowly pour it all into the flour, mixing with a wooden spoon and then with your hands to form a soft dough. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic. Put the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with oiled cling film and leave it to rise in a warm place for 30–45 minutes.To prepare the filling, heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and gently fry the beef and onions until lightly browned, stirring regularly. Remove any damaged leaves from the cabbage, cut it into quarters and discard the tough core. Finely shred the leaves. Stir the cabbage leaves, salt, pepper and all the spices into the pan with the meat. Continue to fry and stir for 3 or 4 minutes more. Add 100ml/3½fl oz water, cover the pan and cook gently for 5 minutes until the cabbage is very soft. Remove the pan from the heat, stir the mixture well and leave to cool.Return the dough to the work surface and knock it back with your knuckles. Knead it lightly again, then divide it into 20 equal portions and roll each one into a ball. Roll out the balls on a lightly floured surface into rounds measuring about 12cm/4½ in, roughly the diameter of a saucer.You’ll need two large baking sheets, lined with baking parchment.

Pici verde with roast tomatoes and paprika meatballs recipe To make the pasta, shake off any excess water from the spinach and put into a food processor with 300g/10½oz of the flour. Blend together until the spinach has completely broken down and formed a dough. You may need to push everything down the sides once or twice. Check the dough – if it is very sticky (this will depend on how wet your spinach is), add more flour. The best texture is soft and very slightly tacky.Roll out the pasta. Do this by pulling off small balls (around the size of a large marble). Start off by rolling between your hands then laying out on a work surface and rolling lightly with both hands, moving from the centre outwards. If it is very sticky, dust your hands with a little flour, but try not to use too much as it makes the pasta much harder to roll – it will slide away from you. The pasta can be cooked right away, in a large pan of boiling, salted water, or it can be dried out. If you are cooking from fresh, it will take five minutes; if it is dry, it will take 8-10 minutes.For the meatballs, heat the olive oil in a frying pan and add the onion. Cook on a medium to low heat until very soft and translucent, then add the garlic and continue to cook for another minute or two. Remove from the heat and cool.Put the beef and pork in a large bowl with the breadcrumbs, soured cream (or crème fraîche), two types of paprika, herbs and egg. Add the onion and garlic and season very generously. Mix thoroughly. Take a small amount of the mixture and fry it. When it is cooked, taste for seasoning and adjust accordingly – meatball mixture often needs more salt than you think. Form the mixture into 20 balls. To cook, either preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6 and bake for 18-20 minutes, turning them over halfway through, until well browned and piping hot in the centre. Or heat some oil in a large frying pan and cook them in two batches, turning regularly.For the roast tomatoes, lay the tomatoes in a roasting tin or ceramic ovenproof dish, cut-side up. Sprinkle with salt, thyme leaves, garlic and the olive oil, then roast for around 10 minutes, or until well softened and very slightly browned round the edges. Serve the meatballs and tomatoes with all the pan juices over the pasta, garnished with plenty of basil and grated parmesan.

Vegetable pakoras and coconut dal recipe For the coconut dal, heat the oil in a large non-stick saucepan over a low heat. Add the onion and garlic and fry very gently for 5-6 minutes, stirring regularly until softened and just beginning to brown. Stir in the curry powder and cook for a further 30-40 seconds.Add the lentils, coconut milk, 400ml/14fl oz water and half a teaspoon of salt to the onion and garlic mixture, then bring it to the boil. Reduce the heat until the mixture is simmering. Simmer, stirring regularly, for 25-30 minutes, or until the lentils are swollen and tender and the dal has thickened. Stir in the lime or lemon juice, season, to taste, with the remaining salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper, then remove from the heat and set aside until needed. (The dal can be reheated when required; meanwhile, the flavours will intensify as it stands.)For the pakoras, in a large mixing bowl, mix the thawed vegetables with the chopped coriander, if using. Add the flour, salt, chilli powder and turmeric and stir to combine and coat the vegetables in the mixture. Stir in the 2 tablespoons of sunflower oil using a large wooden spoon, then gradually add 150ml/5fl oz tepid water in a thin stream, stirring constantly, until the ingredients coating the vegetables form a thick, smooth batter.Add enough sunflower oil to reach 2.5cm/1in up the sides of a deep-sided, heavy-based saucepan. Heat the oil to 160C, or until a breadcrumb sizzles and turns golden-brown when dropped into it. Take care not to allow the oil to overheat. (Caution: Hot oil can be dangerous. Do not leave unattended.)Carefully lower dessertspoonfuls of the pakora batter into the hot oil, in batches of 6 or 7. You will need to push the batter off the spoon using a second spoon. Cook the pakoras for 2½-3 minutes, turning once during cooking, until they are crisp and golden-brown and float to the surface of the oil. Remove the pakoras from the hot oil using a slotted spoon and set aside to drain on kitchen paper. Keep warm.

Lightly grease a baking tray with a little oil. For the filling, blend the ginger and green chillies to a paste in a food processor, then remove from the food processor and set aside. Blend the peas in the food processor (there is no need to wash the bowl). Remove and set aside. Heat the oil in a lidded frying pan over a medium heat. Add the mustard seeds and fry, covered with the lid, until they start to pop. Take care to keep your eyes and face away from the pan. Add the ginger-and-chilli paste and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes. Add the pea purée and continue to fry, stirring well, for a further 4-5 minutes.

Mix in the icing sugar, maple syrup and salt, then transfer into a serving bowl. Drizzle over a squirt of maple syrup and sprinkle with a pinch of mixed spice. Cover the bowl and pop into the fridge.For the pakoras, have a baking tray lined with kitchen paper ready to soak up any excess oil. Put a medium pan (one that has a lid, in case you need to put the lid on in an emergency) on a high heat and add about 1.5 litres/2½ pints of oil, though this depends on the size of the pan: the oil needs to be halfway up. (CAUTION: hot oil can be dangerous. Do not leave unattended.)Tip the carrots, walnuts and raisins into a mixing bowl. Mix well. Add the flour, baking powder, sugar, mixed spice and salt, and stir into the carrot mixture so that everything is coated. Add the beaten eggs and keep mixing until you have a thick batter. Test that the oil is hot enough by adding a tiny drop of the batter to the oil. If it sizzles and rises to the top, the oil is ready for frying. (If you own a cooking thermometer, it should be at 170C.) Turn the heat down to medium. Using two teaspoons, one to pick up and the other to push out, gently drop teaspoons of the mixture into the oil. Work in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for a few minutes – these only take about 4–5 minutes. Move them around, turning them occasionally so that they are an even colour. They should be golden-brown on the outside. Carefully remove the pakoras from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on the paper-covered tray. Fry more batches until all the batter is used up. Dust with the icing sugar and serve with the dip.

Indo Chinese chilli paneer recipe To make the naan bread, mix the flour, baking powder and salt together in a bowl. Whisk together the milk, egg and sugar in a jug, then add this to the flour mixture and knead lightly to make a soft dough. Take care not to overwork the dough or it will become too stretchy. Cover with a damp cloth and leave to rest for 15 minutes.Pour the vegetable oil over the dough and turn it a few times so it is evenly coated. Divide the dough into 16 equal pieces, then roll each one out into a 9cm/3½in circle. Gently stretch out one side to form the traditional teardrop shape. Alternatively, just roll them into 10cm/4in circles. Although naans are traditionally cooked on the side of a hot tandoor oven, they also cook well in an ordinary domestic oven. Preheat the oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7, putting a baking tray on the top shelf to heat up. Place the naan breads on the hot tray and bake for 4–5 minutes, until they are starting to brown on both sides. You might need to turn the bread to make sure it colours on both sides. Alternatively, heat several heavy-based flameproof frying pans on the hob until they are very hot. Place one naan bread on each pan and cook for a couple of minutes, until it starts to get slightly coloured. Turn the naans over and transfer the pans to a hot grill for a minute or so, until the bread puffs up and gets lightly coloured. Once cooked, wrap the naans in a tea towel to keep warm. To make the deep-fried paneer, add the paneer, red chilli flakes and cornflour to a bowl and mix together. Add a little bit of water, if needed. Fill a deep, tall-sided saucepan two-thirds full of vegetable oil and heat to 175C. Alternatively, heat a deep-fat fryer to the same temperature. (CAUTION: hot oil can be dangerous. Do not leave unattended.) Deep-fry the paneer cubes for around 2–3 minutes until they are crisp on the outside. Remove from the oil using a metal slotted spoon, drain on kitchen paper and set aside.To finish the chilli paneer, place a saucepan over a medium heat, add a drizzle of oil then the garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds. Add in the chilli flakes, ginger, celery and green chillies and sauté until fragrant.Add in the chilli powder, tomato purée, salt and sugar and cook for 1 minute, then add the white vinegar or lemon juice and cook for 1–2 minutes. Add the soy sauce and mix well, then add the fried paneer cubes and peppers and cook for 2–3 minutes. Finally, add a pinch of Sichuan pepper. Garnish the paneer with chopped spring onions, and serve with the naan bread for a substantial main course or on its own as a snack.

Triangle parathas recipe An average of 3.0 out of 5 stars from 2 ratings These lovely golden-brown parathas are perfect for mopping up the juices from your favourite curry. Vivek Singh serves them with his jungle curry. 500g/1lb 2oz plain flour2 tbsp ghee, plus extra for cooking½ tsp ajwain seeds½ tsp nigella seeds1½ tsp salt4 tbsp oil 500g/1lb 2oz plain flour 2 tbsp ghee, plus extra for cooking ½ tsp ajwain seeds ½ tsp nigella seeds 1½ tsp salt 4 tbsp oil Method Measure out 400g/14oz of the flour and, using your fingers, incorporate the ghee into the flour until mixed evenly and throughly. Sprinkle in the carom seeds, black onion seeds and salt. Measure out 200ml/7fl oz of water and add it little by little to make a very stiff dough. If the water isn’t enough simply sprinkle in an extra tablespoon or so and knead the dough into a ball. Cover with a damp cloth and leave to rest for 10 minutes.Divide the dough into eight equal parts and shape each into a smooth round ball. Using the remaining flour to dust, take one ball at a time and flatten it, then use a rolling pin to roll it into a disc of 6–8cm/2½in–3¼in radius.Now spread some oil on the surface of the disc and dust some flour over. Fold the disc into half to make a semi-circle. Repeat the same process of oil and flour on the semi-circle and fold it again to get a triangle.

Divide into 24 equal portions and set aside to cool completely.For the pastry, mix the flour, spices and salt in a bowl. Using your fingertips, rub in the oil until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add a tablespoon of cold water at a time, kneading between each addition, until you have a smooth dough (you will need approximately 4 tablespoons water). Apply a little oil to the surface of the dough ball and cover it with cling film. Set it aside for 10 minutes.Roll the dough into a long cylinder and cut the dough into 12 equal parts. Roll each portion between your palm and press into a circle. Using a rolling pin, roll it out gently to a circle about 7.5-10cm/3-4in in diameter. (Do not use any flour for rolling. If dough sticks use some oil to grease the work surface.)Cut each circle of dough into two equal parts to make semi-circles. Brush a little water on the straight edge and make a cone shape by joining that edge with a slight overlap. Press the join together to seal.Fill each pastry cone approximately three-quarters full with the filling then brush a little water to the outer edge of the pastry and seal it to enclose the filling. Repeat the same process with the remaining samosas.Preheat a deep-fat fryer to 180C, or alternatively, heat the oil in a deep, heavy-based saucepan until a breadcrumb sizzles and turns brown when dropped into it. (CAUTION: do not leave unattended. Hot oil can be dangerous.)Once the oil is hot, cook the samosas in small batches until golden-brown. Don’t let the oil get too hot or the pastry shell won’t cook through and will be doughy inside. Drain the samosas on kitchen paper.To serve, place the samosas on a serving plate with the chutney alongside. For the green coriander chutney, put the herbs, garlic, and chillies in a blender and pulse until you have a soft, spoonable consistency.
