Serves 4

Crisp Roast Duck with a Confit of Sour Cherries

This is it – the best method of roasting duck I've found to date, and of all the lovely sauces, this one – made with dried sour cherries – is the loveliest.

 

 

Serves 20-25

Baked Sugar-glazed Whole Gammon

For a smaller joint of boned gammon, such as a middle cut weighing 5-6 lb (2.25-2.75 kg), pre-soak and cook in exactly the same way, using half the quantity of glazing ingredients. Calculate 20 minutes per pound (450 g) and glaze during the last 30

 

 

Serves 4-6

English Pot Roast

The root vegetables in this seem to absorb the meat flavour, which makes them extra good.

 

 

Serves 4-6 as a first course

Roasted Red Peppers Stuffed with Fennel

These lovely peppers can be made in advance, so are perfect for entertaining as a starter - full of flavour, colour and intense flavours of Italian vegetables.

 

 

Serves 2-3 as a snack or accompaniment

Spiced Roast Parsnip Chunks with Coriander Chutney

Parsnips and curry spices make a wonderful combination, with the heat of the spices offsetting the sweetness of the root vegetables. This is a great dish to serve with curry or as a side dish.

 

 

Serves 6

Crisp Roast Duck with a Confit of Rhubarb and Ginger

I’m not very horticulturally minded but rhubarb is, I think, technically, a vegetable. But since the richness of duck is always complemented by something sweet and acidic, rhubarb is absolutely perfect.

 

 

Serves 4-6

Pepper-Crusted Fillet of Beef with Roasted Balsamic Onions and Thyme

A Sunday lunchtime treat: a pepper crust helps to keep the meat succulent while roasting, while the onions and thyme adds intriguing flavours and a hint of Italian to this superb recipe.

 

 

Serves 6-8

Oven-roasted New Potatoes in Rosemary Vinaigrette

This is an ideal recipe for making use of new potatoes that are getting a bit on the big side.

 

 

Serves 6

Roasted New Potatoes with Herbs and Garlic

Steaming new potatoes served with butter and chopped fresh mint is always a delight, but it’s good to have a change. New potatoes roast beautifully in their skins, and if you buy the baby ones ready cleaned, there is no need to wash them and the skin

 

 

Serves 6

Oven-roasted Red Potatoes with Red Onion and Red Wine Vinegar

We all love roast potatoes, but sometimes it's good to try something new. Here, Delia has added red onions and red wine vinegar which gives a rich depth of flavour that's irresistible!
