The foodie gossip

LAMB DONER KEBAB AT HOME WITH GREEK-STYLE FRIES

We’ve teamed up with Try Lamb to create a gourmet twist on this iconic post-night out essential. Rich lamb mince and steaks are spiced, seasoned and skewered before being gently cooked on a rotating grill. The lamb is served with all the usual suspects; 2 sauces, smoky spiced fries, salad and flatbreads. This is doner done good!

BEEF, WHISKY AND PORCINI SUET PIE

We celebrate the wonderful wheat grain in this hearty recipe created with @BASF. Beef cheek, shallots and porcini mushrooms come together with wheat-based whisky, beer and flour to make a warming pie that’s perfect for feeding the masses!

LAMB KOFTAS WITH GREEK SALAD AND TZATZIKI

There are koftas, and then there are KOFTAS. We’ve teamed up with Try Lamb to dream up the latter! Minced lamb is blended with vibrant herbs, fragrant spices and loads of garlic before being skewered and grilled to juicy meatball perfection. The koftas are served with a creamy tzatziki, crisp salad and pita breads to soak up any leftover goodness.

DUCK WITH TRUFFLE WAFFLES & TRUFFLE MAYO RANCH

Nothing says decadence like duck, truffle and plenty of syrup! We teamed up with @heinz to create this amazing waffle dish using their [Seriously] Good Rich & Creamy Truffle Mayonnaise. Treat yourself and whip this up in under half an hour for an unforgettable brunch, lunch or naughty snack.

Mackerel ‘rillettes’

We’re celebrating the humble mackerel in this delicate rillettes recipe we created with @fishisthedish. They’re encouraging us to buy, cook and eat more of the great seafood caught locally in the UK with the #SeaForYourself campaign.

PULLED CHIPOTLE MUSHROOM TACOS

QUICK UDON PUTTANESCA

This recipe is definitely one big cheat that takes next to no time and makes the most delicious dish. We've taken inspiration from a classic Italian puttanesca but taken it to a very different place. The sauce is made in the microwave (perfect for those without a kitchen) and the pasta is replaced by frozen udon noodles. They're great for having on hand and take half the time of dried pasta (plus, no hob necessary). The everything is tossed together and then all you have to do is get slurping!

JAMIE'S NOT SO INSTANT RAMEN

Turn a packet of instant ramen noodles into something game-changing! This draws flavour from bacon and pork fillet to make the ultimate comforting broth. Don't forget to prep your soy eggs the day before- they really do add a different dimension to the bowl.

FENNEL AND SAGE PORK PIE

An iconic British pub grub favourite with a couple of fresh twists to keep you coming back for more...and more. Spend a little time, have a little faith and you will be wondering why you took this long to make your own. Seasoned pork encased in a layers of sharp cider jelly and wonderfully crumbly hot water crust pastry - whats not to like?!

MIKE'S CRISPY RAMEN CHICKEN AND FRIES

Well, this is a quirky way to use up those instant noodles drying up at the back of your cupboard! Use some to coat and fry some juicy chicken and turn the rest into fries! Then drizzle the whole lot in a banging coconut curry sauce.

VEGAN "FISH" AND CHIPS WITH CASHEW TARTARE AND WASABI PEAS

Going vegan should never mean missing out on dishes that you love, but rather than try to replicate dishes, we're trying to celebrate vegetables and ingredients that work really well in their own right. Aubergine is perfect for taking on loads of flavour and works really well in a batter. Cashews give a lovely creamy texture when blended - great for dipping sauces!

GLUTEN-FREE CHERRY PIES

EXPERT'S CLASSIC CHERRY PIE

PHWOAAAAAR this is the ultimate cherry pie recipe and the only one you'll ever need. Make the pastry from scratch, make a luxurious, cherry filling and top it all off with that classic lattice that's totally iconic.

BARRY'S BEEF RIB STIFADO BUNNY CHOW

When Barry pulled out 'Greek' and 'South African' out of a hat to create the ultimate fusion dish, this was his first thought. A bunny chow stuffed with a stifado stew... jazzed up souvlaki style with fries! The dish just works. You're going to love it.

JAMIE'S CREOLE CHICKEN KATSU

Vegan Lasagne

Lasagne is known for being very meat and cheese heavy but we know it doesn't have to be! We've come up with a recipe that cuts out all animal products but doesn't compromise at all on taste! Try it for yourself!

FONDANT DRIPPING POTATOES WITH HORSERADISH POMMES PURÉE

This is a clever little dish that moulds itself off the traditional 'steak, chips and gravy' dish EXCEPT every single element is made of potatoes (no actual steak in this recipe- we're sorry for tricking you but it's still AMAZING). You'll make fondant potatoes which are super indulgent. It's the one to whip up if you're looking for something completely outta the box.

MOROCCAN ROAST DINNER

Mike's winning entry to the ultimate fusion battle. Here you've got two international cuisines (British and Moroccan) resulting in an absolutely to-die-for roast dinner. If you've got family and friends coming round, be sure to knuckle down in the kitchen. It's a challenge of a recipe, but utterly worth it for the results.

Spiralised Potato and Blood Sausage Croquettes on Potato Soup

Inspired by Stomppot (a hearty and humble Dutch classic), this dish fuses those ingredients with the flavours of Spain as a nod to the history that brought the potato from Peru to Europe. The recipe also makes full use of the potato's skins and includes a sweet and tangy aioli made from rapeseed oil mixed with honey and sherry vinegar. All in all, a fantastic entry from Ben for the Ultimate Potato Battle. It showcases this amazing ingredient in so many ways. You should give it a go...

Quick Falafel

Falafel is a phenomenally popular middle-eastern dish, and for good reason! The only thing is, who makes it at home? We hope to change all of that with this speedy and delicious recipe.

TRADITIONAL FALAFEL

A Middle eastern classic that's sure to please a crowd! Bring this to any picnic, bbq or party and brace yourself for people asking for the recipe!

5 Ingredient Cherry Pie Turnovers

These cheeky little cherry turnovers are a pushover to make! Just FIVE ingredients in total and you've got tasty little pockets of deliciousness to feast on. They're tart, crispy and guaranteed to warm you to the core.

CHINESE WELSH LAMB BIANG BIANG NOODLES

Sweet Falafel with Chocolate and Tahini Yoghurt

Well... this one's a little different. Sometimes there are recipes where we ask you to trust us. With this one, we can absolutely promise you it's worth it! Happy cooking!
