STARTERS

Caramelized red onions topped with melted goat's cheese on toasted ciabatta make a simple yet delicious starter or lunchtime snack.

This delicious starter requires only three ingredients, making it quick and easy to prepare. It's perfect for those who are short on time but still want to impress their guests. Additionally, it can be prepared in advance, allowing you to focus on other aspects of your meal or event.

These tartlets are ideal for a quick canape or lunch dish. Super easy to prepare and quick to cook, you’ll be making them every week! Experiment with different flavoured pesto or tapenade and use peppers instead of tomatoes.
 

Individual onions stuffed with sage-spiced sausage meat, bejeweled with sweetcorn and cranberries, make the perfect accompaniment to your Christmas centerpiece or a delightful light lunch on their own.
