Spring
Green shoots pushing through the ground - at last! - herald the end of winter dearths. Enjoy spring eating with early crops of vegetables, watercress and shellfish...
Serves 4-6Parsnips with a Mustard and Maple Glaze
Glazing parsnips with mustard and maple syrup gives them a whole new dimension… wonderful with any roast meats or poultry or as a vegetarian dish.
Serves 2Scrambled Eggs with Smoked Salmon and Brioche
Does someone you know deserve breakfast in bed? If so, this is the recipe for you - luxurious smoked salmon and creamy scrambled eggs piled into a soft brioche. Yum!
Serves 4Oven-roasted Carrots with Garlic and Coriander
Winter carrots can lack flavour and appeal, but if you add coriander seeds and slightly caramelise them in the oven, they seem to take on a new lease of life.
Serves 4-6Sauteed Caramelised Fennel
This lovely caramelised fennel would go brilliantly with any fish, meat or chicken but maybe, due to the inclusion of cider and cider vinegar, particularly well with pork.
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!
Serves 1Stilton Souffle Omelette
This recipe for one is a great way to jazz up a plain omelette, with Stilton adding plenty of flavour. And, if there are two people to feed, it can easily be doubled up.
Serves 8Purée of Parsnips with Crème Fraîche and Nutmeg
This light, fluffy puree is an unusual way of serving parsnips, but the addition of nutmeg brings a wonderful warmth and spice to it. Would be fabulous with sausages and roast meat.
Serves 2 as main course or 4 as a starterFillets of Sole Véronique
Often made with chicken, Delia believes this delicate recipe deserves a revival… and who could argue with that? A wonderful combination of cream, grapes and vermouth, it perfectly complements fish or chicken.
Makes four 1 lb (350 ml capacity) jarsSmoky Tomato Chutney
Adding pimenton to a plain tomato chutney is an inspired move and makes it unbeatable with barbecued meats, sausages and cheeses. A great way of using up a glut in the garden!
Serves 6-8Traditional Raspberry Trifle
Using fresh raspberries for this luscious trifle makes it even more of a treat, with trifle sponges, raspberry jam and custard adding the other dimensions. You could even use a ready-made custard if short of time.
