Almond-Crusted Halibut

Recipe by: Susan W.

Reviews(3)

This dish melts in your mouth. The credit goes to my future mother-in-law. Not only does it taste gorgeous, but halibut is a sustainably sourced fish. Each halibut fillet should be approximately an inch thick. Substitute crème fraîche for the double cream for a lighter dish.

Panforte

Recipe by: Andrea

I LOVE to make this impressive, but easy cake at Christmas! The cake is so sticky that you must use edible paper to line the pan. Don’t worry if the mixture seems to cool too quickly. Just warm it up in the microwave again and keep working.

Tarte aux Pommes

Recipe by: WURZELTREE

Reviews(2)

My mother used to make this all the time, usually to go with Sunday dinner. I was hooked. Haven't had it in ages and I was wanting to bake something special for a special someone so I asked mum for the recipe. Tried it out today, and it's just as I remember. The thing that makes it for me is the frangipane. Hope you like it as much as me.
