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.

Chocolate Mousse Cheesecake

Recipe by: Eleanor Johnson

The unique thing about this cheesecake recipe is that it is made in a pressure cooker. Because this cake improves with time, make it the day before. If desired, garnish with icing sugar or whipped cream and sliced strawberries.

Mascarpone and cherry rum cheesecake

Recipe by: Yippay226

Reviews(2)

I kind of just threw this thing together one day, but it turned out great. I don't like alcohol, but the rum (I used a cherry rum) made it all that more amazing. Sorry there's no picture, but you'll have to take my word on it when I say that it tastes great. If anyone makes this and adds a picture, that would be even better.
