Serves 6Salmon in Champagne Sauce
Doesn’t this gorgeous salmon recipe look indulgent? The good news is that it’s a real doddle to make, with a buttery shallot sauce that adds to the wow factor! Perfect for a special occasion…

Many people find sauces daunting to make, but Delia's discovered a secret ingredient - sauce flour - that makes quick work of the process with failsafe results.
Serves 2Coriander and Lime Tartare Sauce
Bought tartare sauce isn't a patch on this luscious home-made version - and you won't believe how easy it is to make! Keep it in the fridge for up to a week and serve with anything fishy…

A real classic, this dessert is wintry and wonderful: dip your spoon into the soft sponge to release a pool of lemony sauce at the bottom. What could be better?
Serves 4-6Gammon and Broad Beans with Spring Onion and Chive Sauce
This marvellous recipe exploits that wonderful culinary marriage of pork and beans, here coupled with a creamy spring onion and chive sauce. We defy anyone not to love it!

Light and full of Christmas flavour, this steamed panettone pudding will go down a treat after the turkey on Christmas Day! Serve it with an alcoholic citrus sauce for a festive finale to remember...
Serves 6-8Traditional English Custard
There are times when, for speed, bought fresh custard is fine, but when you're cooking a leisurely Sunday lunch make sure you make the real deal to go with your pies and crumbles - it's dead easy once you know how!
Makes 24Mini Yorkshire Puddings with Rare Beef and Horseradish and Mustard Crème Fraîche Sauce
These stunning little canapes are heaven on a plate! Cold Yorkshire pudding may not sound that alluring but add rare roast beef and you have the most brilliant combination. A party must!

Serve this very English classic with sausages, roast meats, grills, barbecue food, cheese… just about anything you like really.
Serves 8Cumberland Rum Butter
With just three ingredients it's possible to make this classic accompaniment to mince pies, Christmas pudding and other festive finales. But it would also partner pies, crumbles and tarts all year round.
