The roast beef of old England is only half the story: at last the world has recognised that our native cuisine is well worth a detour. Tuck into crumbles, casseroles and cakes to see why!
Serves 8Little Sticky Toffee Puddings with Pecan Toffee Sauce
Why not freeze these gorgeous little puds for a very special dessert? Your guests will love the wonderful flavours of this real treat.
Serves 6Boiled Smoked Bacon with Pease Pudding with Onion and Mustard Sauce
This may sound like quite a retro kind of dish, but as Delia says, collar of bacon has great flavour... and if you've never tasted traditional pease pudding you're in for a treat!
Serves 6Eton Mess
Invented at Eton for 4 June celebrations, this easy summery dessert is one of the quickest and most delectable ways to enjoy home-grown strawberries, couple with cream and meringue. Yum!
Serves 4-6Pot-roasted Beef in Red Wine with Red Onion Marmalade
Pot-roasting used to be popular but then fell out of favour. We reckon it's well overdue for a revival, as you don't have to worry about it drying out as you would with a roast and the meat just sits and cooks happily by itself.
Serves 2Fried Skate Wings with Very Quick Homemade Tartare Sauce
This unctuous sauce keeps for a week and so can be called into service for other fish dishes too. Make it with lime and coriander for a more oriental touch. Skate is hugely underrated, easy to cook and well worth the effort.
Serves 2-3Toad in the Hole with Roasted-onion Gravy
When we analyse the site to see which recipes you have been cooking, this one appears in the top 10 again and again. Easy to see why: easy, cheap and nutritious it has to be one of the nation's favourite suppers.
Serves 6-8Chocolate Mascarpone Cheesecake with Fruit and Nuts served with Creme Fraiche
OK, this isn't the healthiest dessert on record, but we all deserve a no-holds-barred bit of indulgence now and then. Anyone who loves chocolate will thrill to this wonderful baked cheesecake. To avoid it cracking, allow to cool in the oven.
Serves 6Curried Parsnip and Apple Soup with Parsnip Crisps
The combination of parsnips, apple and spices is original and truly delectable: an unusual soup that's certain to become a regular in your repertoire.
Serves 6Raspberry Crumble
Raspberries may not be the obvious choice for a crumble, but their sharpness perfectly offsets the sweetness and texture of the topping. Give it a go!
Serves 4Roast Seville Orange-glazed Duck with Port Wine Sauce
Delia's delicious take on duck a l'orange brings this retro favourite bang up to date with the sharp, tangy flavour of Seville orange marmalade a great foil for the richness of the duck...
