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.
Simple red sauce
Description
Sometimes, that's all it takes to make a meal special! When I make chicken or vegetable kebabs, chicken balls or even just chips, I like to vary the sauces. This version isn't a cocktail sauce, but a simplified adaptation of my mother's fabulous red sauce. It's so quick and easy to make that you could almost prepare it with your eyes closed – and my sons love it so much that I sometimes have to hide the spoon!
