THE MENUS IN MY PREMIUM AREA
If I were to host three dinner parties this autumn, these are the menus I’d choose…
Three opportunities to get together around a lovely table.
MENU No. 2 — A Thursday evening
What an idea! I’ve invited some friends round on Thursday evening for a proper dinner.
Crispy savoury puff pastry · Poultry with tarragon · Chocolate & orange
How about we finally took the time to entertain guests?
Pears, chanterelles & hazelnuts · Roast lamb · Autumn pavlova
MENU No. 15 — An evening with a difference
How about we do something a bit out of the ordinary tonight?
Autumn Cappuccino · Salmon in a golden coating · Chocolate & pear
For each menu: the recipes, the shopping list and my plan of action to organise everything in advance.
Your guests are seated.
You too.

- TRADITIONAL METHOD
Preparation (traditional method)
1. Preheat the oven to 200°C.
2. In a shallow bowl, mix together the lemon juice, olive oil and melted butter. Set aside.
3. In another bowl, mix the flour with the spices, salt and pepper.
4. Dip the cod pieces first in the lemon sauce, then in the flour mixture. Set aside the rest of the lemon sauce for later.
5. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in an ovenproof frying pan over medium heat. Sear the fish quickly on both sides, just to give it a nice colour.
6. Mix the chopped garlic into the rest of the lemon sauce and pour it over the fish.
7. Bake for about 10 minutes, until the fish flakes easily with a fork (check to see if it is cooked through).
8. Sprinkle with chopped parsley just before serving.
