Onion family soup with Gruyère croûtes

Recipe by: Maggie Pannell

Be the first to review it!

The secret of this rich, warming soup lies in the slow cooking of the onions and leeks, in just a little butter and oil, until lightly caramelised. Thinly sliced potatoes add extra carbohydrate and help to thicken the stock. Complemented by crunchy cheese and walnut-topped croûtes, it makes a satisfying lunch or supper dish.

Pain au Chocolat Pudding

Recipe by: elevenses

This is a delicious adaptation of the famous Bread & Butter Pudding, swapping white bread for Pain au Chocolat (Chocolate Croissants). For a slightly healthier option try swapping Pain au Chocolat for regular fresh Croissants spread with Orange Marmalade.

Potato and pumpkin gratin

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

When making a layered gratin such as this it's important to think about how the vegetables will cook, how much moisture they will release and whether or not they will hold their shape after cooking. A mixture of roots and softer vegetables yields a well-textured result and provides a good mix of nutrients.

How do you get the rich taste of a classic quiche with a fraction of the fat? One technique: make the case with thinly sliced potatoes. It's a heart-smart substitute for traditional shortcrust!
