Long Description to add
Makes 3-4 lb (1.35-1.8 kg)Fresh Apricot Preserve
This is my mother's recipe, and every year she waits patiently for the price of apricots to come down – which usually happens in August, especially at the end of a warm summer day when whole boxes are sold off at the markets by stallholders at bargai
Roasted Stuffed Apples with Thyme and Parsley
This is the perfect accompaniment to Classic Roast Pork with Crackling, as the acidity of the apples offsets the richness of the pork perfectly.
Makes a 1 lb (450 g) loafWalnut and Raisin Bread
I think one of God's greatest gifts to man is good cheese, and it deserves good bread to go with it. This chunky, slightly sweet bread goes extremely well with a sharp, vigorous Cheddar, fresh goats' cheese or Cashel Blue. It also freezes very well.
Serves 4Very Red Rice
This was a recipe created for Comic Relief, hence the title, and I always have a good giggle thinking back to the filming of those hilarious cookery demonstrations that were later screened on television. It's also an excellent recipe – good with any
Makes 1 large or 2 small loavesPlain and Simple White Bread
A good, old-fashioned, English, white, crusty loaf, soft inside and lightly textured, is still hard to beat – it's my own favourite for soldiers to go with softly boiled eggs, and the next day or the day after it always makes divine toast. Made eithe
Makes 3 pints (1.75 litres)Home-made Lemonade
Just lemons, sugar and water are needed to make what is possibly the most refreshing drink in existence...just remember to start it a day before you want to drink it, so all the flavours can combine.
Serves 4-6Quick-Braised Celery
Celery has such a lot going for it as a raw ingredient in salads, and because of that we rather forget how good it is cooked and served as a vegetable. This method is delightfully quick and easy, and tastes just wonderful.
Makes 1 small loafCornmeal and Mixed-seed Bread
This is a very quick and easy loaf, but with lots of varying textures. And don't worry if the sunflower seeds turn green during baking – it actually looks very attractive.
Serves 4Spiced Carnaroli Rice Salad
This is a lovely spicy salad with Moroccan overtones – perfect for a buffet lunch, party or serving with cold cuts and spicy chutneys.
Serves 4Watercress and Caper Mash
This is a recipe for mashed potato that's great served with fish. I love it with some freshly grilled mackerel or herring, and it's also extremely good with smoked fish.
