Cinnamon and raisin muffins with pear centres

Recipe by: 4eB

Be the first to review it!

Super-simple and moist muffins with a juicy liquid pear core. If you prefer a sweeter muffin, you can add more sugar, but the fruit in this one keeps things sweet enough as it is. Great way to use up pears that are starting to look a little past their best!

Danny's Scrambled Egg

Recipe by: BigBadDan

It is important that seasonings are added at the last minute. The butter used is unmeasured because you can add more or less butter depending on taste. The trick to the perfect scrambled egg is not to over-cook. Scrambled egg should be slightly runny, not solid.

Hot and spicy tuna rolls

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

Here, the soft interiors of large crusty bread rolls are hollowed out to provide a crisp casing for a gently spiced mix of tuna, sweetcorn and red kidney beans, and then warmed in the oven. For a light lunch that is satisfying and well-balanced, serve with a mixed tomato and leaf salad.

A very Victorian recipe! Some people are put off by the notion of herb cookies, but you'll be pleasantly surprised. The flavour improves with age (best 2 days after), keeping for about a week.

Salmon and dill tartlets

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

Individual tartlets served with a salad garnish make a very appealing starter. This fish filling is wonderfully light as it's made with a cornflour-thickened sauce, without the addition of fat, and whisked egg whites are folded in for an airy souffle-like texture. Serve straight from the oven to really impress.

Sticky prune and ginger teabread

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

The texture of this irresistible teabread is a mixture of crumbly ginger-spiced cake and a sticky, sweet prune purée that is rippled through it. The teabread keeps well – in fact, it improves after being stored for a day or two – and is a good choice for an energy-giving lunchbox sweet.

Sylvia's Very Moist Carrot Cake

Recipe by: zjphsy

Be the first to review it!

I have a few books of baking, one of them is the very famous book by Nigella Lawson, which gave me the main idea of how a carrot cake should taste. Then I found a recipe from another book, the hamlyn chocolate recipes. There is a page of making white chocolate muffins with natural bio yogurt. I make some muffins out of that recipe, and this week, By combining the recipes from both books, here comes the healthy carrot cake.

Tomato and basil galettes

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

Galette is the French term for a flat, round pastry or cake. The galettes here are made from wholemeal scone dough flavoured with a little Parmesan cheese. They make a delicious base for a tomato, basil and pine nut topping. Serve as a snack or starter, or as a light lunch with a mixed leaf salad. They're also good cold.

Veggie burgers

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

A few simple ingredients make really tasty meat-free burgers. If you want to barbecue them, the best method is to cook the burgers in advance and just heat them up over the coals, as this prevents them from sticking to the grilling rack. A crisp side salad is all that is needed with the burgers in their sesame-topped buns.
