Long Description to add
Makes 3½ pints (2 litres)Victoria Plum or Damson Ketchup
This is delicious served with cold meats or sausages and will keep indefinitely. Use bottles that have contained shop-bought ketchup or you can buy the old-fashioned type 'pop' bottles from good kitchen shops.
Serves 4Patatas Arequipo
A spicy Peruvian dish with a wonderful and unusual walnut sauce, made simple with the help of a top-class prepared potato ingredient. Colourful and light, it makes a great supper or lunch dish for vegetarians.
Serves 4 (makes 8 rösti)Bubble and Squeak Rösti
Bubble and squeak is a classic leftover recipe for greens, but making it rösti-style and adding some mature Cheddar adds a new dimension. These little individual rösti are brilliant served with sausages or leftover cold turkey and ham and a selection
Makes six 1 lb (350 ml capacity) jarsTraditional Seville Orange Marmalade
Even if you've never made a jar of marmalade in your life, you'll be amazed at how easy it is to achieve the perfect result, giving you the very best marmalade to enjoy all year round.
Makes 2 x 1 litre or 4 x 0.5 litre jarsSuntina Marmalade
Suntinas are available from mid-December to the end of February and have a charming tangerine flavour which makes a delightfully different marmalade, and I think the nice thing about having a choice of marmalades is you never get bored.
Makes a 1 litre jarChristmas Chutney
This is so-named because it is made with dried fruits, which I always associate with Christmas: prunes, dates and apricots. It's dark, spicy and delicious with cold cuts, pork pies or hot sausages – and it goes splendidly with matured Cheddar.
Serves 8Chilled Rum Sabayon
Serve this lovely, light sauce with mince pies or Little Mincemeat Souffle Puddings for a true taste of France...or Italy, where it's known as zabaglione. Either way, it will soon become a firm favourite.
Serves 6Hummus Bi Tahini
If you want to make the proper authentic version of this you'll need to hunt out some tahini paste, which is available at supermarkets and health-food shops.
Serves 4Toasted Sweetcorn Salsa
Salsas are at the height of food fashion at the moment - and this is one of the best: healthy, easy to make and magnificent with rosti crab cakes, salmon, chicken or grilled meats!
Serves 4Marinated Courgettes with a Herb Vinaigrette
If you grow courgettes then this recipe is superb for serving the ones that – if you don't keep a sharp eye on them – become baby marrows overnight. If you don't, then this is still a superb way to serve courgettes as a salad with cold cuts.
