Braised Belgian Endive

Endive makes a lovely salad or cooked like this recipe. I love a variety of vegetables and this is one I enjoy making. Cook longer or less depending on your personal taste. Use fresh herbs if they are available increase herbs to 3 tbsp if you use fresh and chop finely.

French Tart’s Classic Madeleines: Madelines: Little Fluted Cakes

These are one of my favourite French cakes; delicate little light sponge cakes, baked in special fluted trays and sprinkled lightly with icing sugar, so elegant, light and airy! Some are flavoured with vanilla extract only, whilst other recipes suggest using lemon or orange; my recipe uses a combination of vanilla extract and lemon. These are ideal served with afternoon coffee or with a glass of dessert wine after a meal, just as the French serve them. You can also dip the tips into melted chocolate, but I prefer mine to be a little more subtle – but it is up to you!

Parsley Peppercorn Ground Beef Steaks

These taste great, even without the sauce! Good served with buttered sliced carrots. From Woman’s Day magazine. The English and French both used lots of cream in their recipes.
