Oreo coal is possibly the most decadent version of a marshmallow treat that I’ve ever had. With only three ingredients, it’s also incredibly easy to throw together. I used …
I’ve heard that some people consider toffee the eighth wonder of the world…or maybe that’s just me. This recipe makes a chewy toffee, which isn’t traditional, but is super delicious and easier to make than a brittle toffee. Toffee rose to prominence in the early 19th century in England due to the country’s high production …

Although France and Italy are just across the water, when it comes to getting the perfect peach or nectarine, it can seem as if they are on the other side of the world. Grilling is an excellent way to bring out the best in stone fruit that threatens never to ripen. The hot grill caramelises …
What could be nicer on a dark autumn evening than a comforting pot of beans? These genuine superfoods are environmentally friendly and an excellent source of protein and fibre. But most importantly they are absolutely delicious. So, in honour of a fantastic new campaign to double UK bean consumption by 2028, we’ve rounded up some …
This festive, frozen chestnut puree dessert is often credited to the great 19th-century chef Antonin Carême, even though the man himself conceded that this luxurious creation was that of Monsieur Mony, chef to the Russian diplomat Count Nesselrode (albeit, he observed somewhat peevishly, inspired by one of his own chestnut puddings). It was originally served …
Out of sheer laziness, this is a no-churn, very quick to assemble take on things. I tend usually not to recommend no-churn ice-creams unless there is booze involved, so this sherry and raisin one is a great candidate (the alcohol stops the ice-cream from becoming too hard and crystallised). And keep the leftover egg whites …
I believe in divine communion, especially when it comes to food; an alliance of ingredients that come together as though they were meant to feed spirit and body. It might be too lofty to say that this semifreddo is divine, but the combination of Hobnobs, ricotta, chocolate and amaretto really does it for me. That …
Like nibblies, the concept of bringing a plate to a social event or a host’s home can be deeply confusing across cultures and generations. Are you carting canapes? Are you slinging salad? Are you delivering dessert? If we’ve learned anything from the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, it’s that communication is key. So if you’re …
This smoky, deep-red cocktail takes its cue from our Latin roots, but with a seasonal twist. The mix of mezcal, tequila and vermouth is warming and vibrant, while pomegranate and rosemary lend a winter accent that makes it as fitting for a Christmas gathering as for a relaxing night in. Tierra roja Serves 1 25ml …
