Spanish
Paella, of course, but also a Spanish omelette you'll make again and again (great for visiting veggies!), plus chilled soups and a wonderful braised pork recipe...
Serves 2A Sort of Chicken Basque
Hard to believe, but in just 15 minutes and with the help of a jar of roasted red and yellow pepper sauce, you can put together this classic Basque dish of chicken, peppers, onions, olives and chorizo - one-pot cooking at its best.
Serves 2Gratin of Eggs with Chilli and Chorizo
A 'lazy but luscious supper dish' that is made in one dish under the grill… so no tedious waiting for the oven to heat up! Grilled eggs may sound unusual but we can assure you this recipe is a huge success.
Serves 4Ajo Blanco – Chilled Almond Soup
It may sound unusual, but you really must try this cooling, summery almond soup - a Spanish classic and just the thing for lunch on a balmy day.
Serves 4Chilled Fennel Gazpacho with Olive Ciabatta Croutons
Unlike the classic gazpacho, this version includes the lovely aniseed flavours of fennel for a really Mediterranean touch. We know you'll love it and, if the weather is less than summery, it can also be served warm.
Serves 6Pork Braised in Sherry with Tomatoes and Chorizo
A birthday celebration in Majorca allowed Delia to indulge her love of Spanish food with this easy, flavourful recipe. Give it a try!

Serves 1Frying-pan Paella
I have to confess that for years I avoided making a paella, ever since I read in one cookery book that one of the ingredients was a 'singing bird'. Simply on humanitarian grounds I couldn't contemplate it. However, after fourteen years of marriage, m
Serves 4-6Spanish Braised Pork with Potatoes and Olives
This is a new version of a recipe originally published in 1978 – the pork slowly braises in tomatoes and red wine, absorbing the flavour of the olives. Because I now cook potatoes in with it, all it needs is a green vegetable or a salad for a complet
Serves 6Chilled Spanish Gazpacho
This is a truly beautiful soup for serving ice-cold during the summer and it's particularly refreshing if we're lucky enough to have hot weather.
Serves 1Gratinee of Eggs Basque
An ingenious little supper dish for one, this, but with plenty of colour and flavour. If you're less hungry, just use one egg.
