With Thanksgiving a couple of days ago and Christmas on the horizon I thought it would be timely to post a recipe for leftover Turkey.

A warming and wholesome supper which can be prepared in advance and chilled, then baked about half an hour before you want to eat. It’s from ” Apple” by James Rich. Serve with your favourite vegetables.

This recipe from ” Bill’s Italian Food” by Bill Granger combines two of my favourite ingredients.

A posh version of Macaroni Cheese from ” Easy” by Bill Granger.

Orecchiette with Cauliflower and Dill (2)

I am trying hard not to add to my extensive cookery book collection until I have passed on a few. But when a new Nigel Slater book comes out I just cannot resist . Here is the first recipe I tried from his latest book ” A Cook’s Book”. And very good it is too, especially on the days when you want a quick, comforting cheesy supper. I couldn’t get any dill on this occasion, but use it if you can.

Savoy Cabbage with Cream and Juniper (2)

A delicious side dish from Nigel Slater.

Cornbread with Leeks and Feta (6-8)

This brunch or supper dish from Diana Henry is inspired by a recipe from Northern Greece. Serve with some roast tomatoes alongside.

Teeside Parmo Chicken (4)

I recently visited the Teeside area of the UK and came across this dish on the menu in a number of pubs. Eventually I had to try it, and it was indeed quite tasty, if you forget about the carbs. This version is from Telegraph food. Serve with a green salad, and if you are feeling indulgent perhaps some mashed potatoes or fries.

Smoked Haddock with Macaroni Cheese (4)

A recipe from The Bull and Last pub in Highgate, London, which was shared by Diana Henry.
