Questions
Sole without alcohol!
Hello Lindsey. I have Dover Sole which I want to cook for 4 at the weeklend but I cannot find a single Delia recipe that does not include alcohol. Can you suggest one that I could tweak without compromising the flavour?
Thank you.

Seville Oranges in Spain
Hi, l am living in Spain and have tried buying Seville oranges. We have just completed a trip from Murcia to Portugal. No luck with the oranges. In most places we were told the only place to get the oranges is from the trees on the streets, even in Seville. We were reluctant to try and pick them. Seeing you recent recipe for the marmalade made me wonder, how do you find the oranges? Look forward to your response.
Kind regards

The tin for this weeks Cake of the Week
Just received the link to this week's cake, Marmalade Cake, and I'm now confused about whether my loaf tin will work with the recipe. The base of my tin measures 19.5 x 9.5 cm and it is 7 cm high. I'm hopeful, because Lakeland liners don't fit it any more! Have looked but just can't find an actual size for Delia's tine anywhere.
Thank you so much!
