Jarred beetroot are great for this recipe, making it ready in minutes. You can save the juice, freeze it and add it in place of the chilled water or ice. Try serving with a dollop of soured cream.

Classic Beef Stroganoff

Recipe by: Sue Kerr

Reviews(2)

Stroganoff is a wonderful last-minute dish for guests; it is rich and creamy, but is simply and quickly prepared. Traditionally it is served with a rice pilaf, but is equally good over egg noodles.

Dumplings

My mother was one of the best cooks I ever knew. When she made stews we mostly found dumplings in them. Add any fresh herbs you like to the dry ingredients.

Elleasha's famous millionaire Shortbread!!!

Recipe by: elleasha101chhiber

I think its very easy, well most of it sure is anyway! The only bit that i really struggled on was the mixing of the ingredients, mixing it into breadcrumbs with your fingers bit i actually found that it was easier with the dough whisks. plus it deduces your mixing time by about 5-8 minutes. from then it gets pretty easy with the rolling and cuttting and everything...!

Minced turkey and mushrooms make succulent meatballs – delicious simmered in a sauce of smooth passata with red and green peppers. Paprika warms the dish and new potatoes turn it into a complete one-pot meal.

Julia's pickle soup

Recipe by: yoolka

Be the first to review it!

I know what you think - can't possibly be edible. Believe me - it is beautiful. This is a Polish dish, a soup made of sour cucumbers, or pickles. You can buy a jar of them thinly sliced in Polish shops but if there is none in your area you can just slice pickles. I usually just make the soup from the vegetables and that's it but you can throw a chicken stock cube in as well to make it more tasty if you want.

Kolaches

Recipe by: Michelle Beard

Reviews(5)

This is a basic recipe for the traditional Czech pastry. They can be made with a variety of fillings, but this one uses your favourite jam. My preference is for a good quality apricot preserve.

Salmon koulibiac

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

A traditional fish dish from Russia, this is made with poached salmon, rice and mushrooms. The updated version here uses crisp filo rather than the usual puff pastry. As all the preparation can be done ahead of time, a koulibiac is an ideal dinner party dish. All it needs with it are some colourful steamed vegetables.

Blinis are small light pancakes, originally from Russia. The version here is made with wholemeal flour, and the blinis are topped with soured cream, pickled herring, smoked salmon and lumpfish roe. A very special starter.
