Ooh la la! Delia's pulled out all the stops with a terrific selection of the very best of French cuisine, from steaks and salades to snacks such as Croque Monsieur.
Serves 6Spike's Apple Sorbet
Sorbets are a brilliant way of cleansing the palate between courses or as a refreshing dessert. This unusual apple version from Delia's friend, chef Galton Blackiston, can't be bettered.
Makes 12Feta, Olive and Sun-dried Tomato Scones
These little scones are packed with Mediterranean flavours and are just the thing spread with butter at teatime. Alternatively, enjoy them with soup or other lunchtime foods.
Serves 6-8Loin of Pork Dijonnaise
The 'Dijonnaise' bit is, of course, mustard which perfectly complements the pork in this wonderful centrepiece for Sunday lunch - roast pork with a difference!
Serves 6Hot Chocolate Rum Soufflé with Chocolate Sauce
Chocolate lovers will think they've died and gone to heaven if you serve them this sumptuous souffle. And souffle makers will be pleased to hear that, even if it sinks a little, this dessert will still be fabulous.
Makes 18Chocolate Almond Crunchies
You really don't want these in the house if you're watching your weight as it's impossible to eat just one! Made with chocolate and almonds, they are quite irresistible and can be made with chocolate chips for a child-friendly version.
Makes 16Chocolate Chip Ginger Nuts
Chocolate and ginger is a marriage made in heaven, so combine them in these irresistible little biscuits... impossible to eat just one!
Serves 6 as a starterGratin of Mussels with Melted Camembert
Camembert and mussels are both staple ingredients in Normandy, which is where this recipe drew its inspiration. It may sound unusual but you'll be surprised by just how good it is!
Serves 2 (so double it for 4)A Provençal Winter Stew
With temperatures still at freezing, it was time to tuck into a robust stew filled with flavours of the Mediterranean - and discover what Delia's cats enjoy doing most to keep warm!
Serves 4-6 as a light lunchSalade Nicoise
What a classic - and a meal in itself! The combination of peppery rocket, tuna, hard-boiled eggs, olives and anchovies cannot be beaten. Simply add crusty bread...
Serves 2Piperade
There's something of the English breakfast going on here, with a French version of scrambled eggs coupled with Bayonne ham, although you could use bacon. A tasty breakfast, brunch, lunch or supper dish!
