Un-Christmas cake with toffee nut crunch

Un-Christmas Cake with toffee nut crunch I’ve gotta level with you – I’m not a huge fan of ‘traditional’ Christmas cake. This is my ‘Chelsified’ version – it uses everyday ingredients and it’s pretty damned good. It has a heap of grated beetroot & carrot in it to make it […]

Chicken liver pâté with fruit glaze

Chicken liver pâté with fruit glaze It’s so easy to make your own paté – and so very delicious! The ultimate addition to any cheeseboard or platter (perfect on Huntley & Palmers Baked Flatbreads range) – it’s creamy and rich, with the tartness of the fruit glaze cutting through beatifully. […]

Creamy spinach, feta & roasted garlic dip

Creamy spinach, feta & roasted garlic dip This is a real cracker of a recipe (cringeworthy pun intended). Quick to whip up, uses a whole bag of spinach and sing with rich roasted garlic flavour – and a little cream cheese and feta for good measure! Ingredients 2 whole bulbs […]

Romesco dip

Romesco dip Romesco is of Spanish origin, and I reckon it could be one of the tastiest little numbers around (perfect on Huntley & Palmers Baked Flatbreads range). Beautiful rich summery flavours of tomato, capsicum, and toasted hazelnuts & almonds. This recipe makes more than you need, which is a […]

Rocky Road

Berry delicious rocky road Here’s another delicious treat from my second book, Everyday Delicious. I’ve adapted this recipe to make it plant-based – vegan lollies and marshmallow don’t contain gelatine. You can adjust the fillings to suit what you like, what you have on hand and what you’re allowed to […]

Gluten, nut & dairy free chocolate cake

Gluten, nut* and dairy free Chocolate Cake Since posting my gluten-free Chocolate Mud Cake, I’ve had a great number of lovely people asking about adjustments to make it nut and/or dairy free. So rather than just awkwardly try and jam in replacements, I set about creating a whole new recipe. […]

Gluten free chocolate mud cake

Gluten-free chocolate mud cake Just because you’re gluten-free doesn’t mean you should miss out on life’s most delicious treats. I just won’t have it! This amazing mudcake is fudgey, silky and gloriously rich (it uses a whole block of real chocolate – a very good start). It’s perfect eaten just […]

Gluten free ginger & nut slice

Gluten-free ginger & nut slice Forget about the fact this is gluten-free – I’d go so far as to say it could be nicer than the original recipe for my standard Oaty Ginger Slice! It works with a standard gluten-free flour mix (one without raising agent already added) or you […]

Gooey Little Chocolate Puddings

Gooey little chocolate puddings The great thing about these little beauties is I’ve designed the recipe so you can use in a 12-hole muffin pan – since not everyone has fancy ramekins or moulds. This does mean they turn out quite small, so you can feel justified in devouring two […]

Christmas canapés (Santapés!)

Santapés A little green beard, a flash of prosciutto for a face, white woolly scarf, shiny black feet and a pointed red hat – Chelsea’s Santa Christmas Canapés! There’s nothing new about the combination of flavours I’ve used here, but I tell you what, I haven’t seen everything assembled to […]

Fudgey chocolate truffles

Fudgey Christmas chocolate truffles (gluten/dairy-free) This recipe is in my new book, Scrumptious! Rich, fudgey and not too sweet, these are the perfect little treat to bring out with a tea or coffee – any time, not just at Christmas! Dietary variations I know a lot of people have nut […]

Thai chicken satay skewers

Thai chicken satay with peanut sauce If you can’t be bothered making the peanut sauce (or if you want a lighter option) you can leave it out; the marinated  skewers are still delicious on their own with a squeeze of lime and some fresh coriander, mint or basil scattered on […]
