Picnic Recipes
The weather forecast's good so why not rustle up some of Delia's pukka picnic food and head for the great outdoors?
Herb-coated Chicken with Three Mustards
Forget breaded drumsticks: these tasty thighs, coated with mustard then covered in herby breadcrumbs can be eaten hot or cold and will become a favourite with all the family.
Feta, 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.
Crunchy Pistachio-coated Drumsticks
Marinate some chicken drumsticks, then coat them in a crunchy mixture of pistachios, spices and herbs - perfect for barbecues, outdoor eating and picnics, and bound to be a hit with any children who need feeding.
Marinated Chicken Satay with Peanut Satay Sauce
Anyone who's been to Thailand will be familiar with lovely chicken satay, served with spicy peanut sauce. Delia's version is quick, easy and extremely tasty.
Pheasant Terrine
This very rich terrine is a wonderful, prepare-ahead starter or component of a buffet spread. Alternatively serve it with pickles and good bread for a lunchtime feast.
Pan-roasted Italian Onions with San Daniele Ham and Shaved Pecorino
This stylish, simple and very Italian starter was first enjoyed by Delia at Le Caprice in London. San Daniele is the king of Italian ham - seek it out at an Italian deli or buy online; if you can't find it, use Parma ham instead.
Chicken Waldorf Salad - The Delia Collection: Chicken
Not for nothing has this lovely main-course salad become a classic! Give it a try as it's a good way to use up leftover cooked chicken and walnuts, celery and spring onions add plenty of crunch.
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.
Pork Kebabs with Honey and Ginger
Quick and easy, once you've marinated the pork there's very little work to do, making this recipe ideal for busy days.
Rillettes de Tours
Just add toast, pickles or chutney for a real taste of France, ideal for those who don't like liver.
