This Christmas pudding carries the fragrance of stollen spices – cardamom, mace, nutmeg – woven through soft dried fruits, zesty citrus, and golden marzipan pearls. A mellow, nostalgic centrepiece with a hint of continental warmth, it steams gently into being and slices like a storybook cake. Glazed in melted butter, it welcomes toasted almonds and a flutter of icing sugar.
This is the kind of cottage pie that holds the room steady — deeply savoury, topped with golden mash, and honest in its ingredients. Lentils, mushrooms, and millet form a grounding, flavour-rich base, balanced with slow-cooked aromatics and a quiet lick of Marmite. A modern take on tradition — built from scratch, layered with care.
Just three cannelloni — but what a trio. Crisp-edged, golden-topped and filled with garlicky greens and a smooth, satisfying cannellini purée. The lemon-almond cream melts into a tangy, cheese-like crown, with wild garlic singing through every bite. It’s rich without heaviness, comforting with edge — a spring bake to savour slowly, with bread and good company.
