One thing the French have down to an art is making the most of the humble radish.
Radish with butter and salt is a simple yet tasty treat that hits the spot. It's all about the zingy, peppery radish paired with creamy butter and a sprinkle of salt for that perfect bite.
To make it, you can simply smear some of your favourite good quality butter on a slice of radish, sprinkle with salt, and you're good to go.
Or, for a social snack, serve it up on a platter with some fresh bread, like we've suggested below! Your guests will appreciate this twist on the cheese board usuals.
Make it a few days ahead to lighten the load on the day. A sticky orange marmalade and mustard glaze, perfect sliced cold on the Christmas table.
Use up the Christmas dinner leftovers in one pie. Veg and meat folded through a creamy bechamel under an easy pastry top made from pantry staples.
Boxing Day leftovers to the rescue. Crispy potatoes and veg mashed into one big hash with eggs cooked on top. One pan to cook, one pan to wash.
A showstopping alternative to pavlova: meringue stacked with lemon curd custard, whipped cream, berry coulis, toasted almonds and fresh basil.
