For the pre-soaking:

Creole Christmas Cake

Cake is a bit of a misnomer for this fruit-packed, spice-laden indulgence...you'll need a fork and it could even be served as a festive dessert with cream.

Serves 8

Chocolate, Prune and Armagnac Cake

Start this wonderful gluten-free cake a couple of days ahead, then revel in its sheer lightness, due to the lack of flour used.

Serves 6

Anyone's who holidayed in Spain will have enjoyed this superb combination of seafood and rice, with a spicy kick. Delia has perfected her own version - and learnt a little culinary secret along the way...

Serves 2

Spaghetti alla Carbonara

An Italian favourite, this nutritious pasta dish with eggs, bacon and cream couldn't be easier or quicker to make - a great storecupboard standby for when you arrive home tired and hungry!

Serves 4

Stuffed Pork Tenderloin with Fresh Herbs

A no-fuss way to cook and serve roast pork, stuffed with vibrant fresh herbs for a pairing made in paradise.

Lucy's Tarte Tatin

Tarte Tatin is one of the truly great French desserts and is a gift for those who don't like making pastry cases, as you simply place the pastry over the apples to cook. Use whatever apples you like for this.

Serves 4-6

Sfogi in Saor

An unusual way to serve sole, this sweet-and-sour sauce makes it a real treat for all who eat it. This would be a great recipe to serve at a supper party.

Serves 4

Poor Man's Stroganoff with Wild Mushrooms

Using cheaper beef rather than fillet steak makes this a much more economical dish - yet it doesn't suffer anything in the process and is still the most fantastic recipe.
