A French menu for a summer's day
Although haute cuisine isn't as popular as it once was, there's no denying that French recipes offer a great deal of flavour and interest. This lovely summery menu for 4 (the dessert serves 6 but no matter: enough for seconds!) will strengthen entente cordiale considerably!
Starter
 | This soup is a lovely dark green colour and has all the wonderful ingredients and flavours of peas à la Française – peas, spring onions, lettuce and bacon – blended into a velvety smooth soup. |
Main course
 | Roast Chicken with Grape and Herb Stuffing Here’s a nice roast chicken recipe for serving in summer. All it needs is some buttered new potatoes and fresh garden peas to accompany it and some chilled white wine. |
Dessert
 | You can use shop-bought puff pastry for this – it won't have such a good flavour as the quick flaky pastry below, which is made with butter – but the caramelising will help the flavour and it does cut down on the time. |
