A cheese fondue is one of those meals that instantly evokes all things kitsch and retro. A throwback to a style of eating made popular in the 60’s and 70’s it’s a bit of fun and makes for a great sharing meal amongst friends. This version uses Irish cheese and cider and is particularly delicious on cold winter nights

Barbecues do not just have to be for meat. This recipe is a great example of a delicious salad that can be partly cooked on a hot grill. It’s packed with punchy flavours that will leave you wanting more.

This is pure, unashamed, comfort-food indulgence! Don’t be scared of making the  sauce — it takes minutes.

You can get chorizo in fine soft slices or in thick sausage form which I use in this recipe. If you are really stuck and can’t get your hands on some chorizo for this recipe, don’t panic, you can use a little leftover cooked chicken or some sliced cooked ham as a substitute. The great thing about quesadillas is that you can really adapt them to what you have, the classic ones I normally make are with some salsa, cheese and thinly sliced red onion, simple and delicious.
