Venison Keema (2-4)

A great way to use up offcuts of venison from Mark Hix. It will serve two as a main or four as a starter and is good served with flatbreads, rice or even mash.

Armenian Chard and Lentil Soup (4)

I recently spent a week in Armenia and was pleasantly surprised by the food there- especially when eating in family ” restaurants” in local villages. I came home seeking out Armenian recipes so i could try more of their food back in the UK. This is from ” Home Food” by Olia Hercules.

Quick Clam Stew (2-4)

These delicious oily and garlicky clams are from ” Mezcla” by Ixta Belfrage. They can be served as a starter or a main. Instead of the chickpeas they can be tossed with pasta, or served with grilled bread or chips.
