Serves 8 (with the Souffléd Arbroath Smokie Creams)Foaming Hollandaise Sauce
This makes the perfect accompaniment to Soufléed Arbroath Smokie Creams and, even better, it can be frozen ahead.
Serves 6 as a starter or 4 as a main courseRisotto Verde
Asparagus should be enjoyed as often as possible during its short season and this is one of the finest ways of doing so: a risotto made from asparagus, broad beans, spring onions and chives – a real taste of early summer.
Serves 6 as a starterOven-baked Wild Mushroom Risotto
Delia has had a revelation - you can cook risotto in the oven, avoiding all that standing at the hob and stirring. And you know what? It's just as creamy as the classic version!

If you're put off making risotto because of all that stirring, help is at hand: this lovely oven-baked combination f rice, leeks and pancetta sits happily in the oven and is just as good as the classic version.

This savoury cheesecake includes a clever blend of cheese flavours, as the smooth fromage frais and curd cheese gently complement the sharpness of the Roquefort. And, while cheese and pears are always good partners, this particular combination is a m
Serves 4 for lunch or as a starter or 2 as a main courseMexican Enchiladas with Cheese
What are enchiladas? Well, they're Mexican wheat-flour pancakes that can be spread with some spicy salsa and stuffed with almost anything you have handy – in this case cheese – and then baked. An excellent light lunch dish served with a salad.
