I don’t often make a fancy dessert but every now and then there is an occasion that calls for it and I have several recipes.

Serves 8-16.

On my trawl through the archives I came across this vegetarian recipe which should appeal to vegetarians and meat lovers alike. The main ingredient, vegetable suet, may not be readily available in the US but, at the bottom of the recipe I have found a couple of websites where you can order British food online, so if you don’t like the recipe, you may find some other things on there to tickle your taste buds!

Nice potato stuff easy to make.

I know a lot of adults out there add a drop of whisky to their late night milky beverage but this recipe I came across has a very distinct Christmassy feel to it and there’s no need for milk.

Curry and chicken love each other, as is obvious with one bite of this sandwich.

Healthy and tasty…

Make some Ginger Cookies and serve them for Halloween and they kids will love them.
