Olivia’s Beef Cheeks with Parmesan and Polenta is bloody spectacular with meltingly tender beef on soft, pillowy polenta. It makes a perfect do-ahead dinner party dish, and is way easier to make than might be expected. Next on the list will be Claire’s Basque Lemon Cheesecake – having sampled it on shoot-day I can’t wait to have it again!

I have already made (and illustrated) the Pear, Almond and Polenta Cake for my friend's birthday – huge success. I will be making the Herby Cheese and Kumara Lentil pies and the Biang Biang Noodles for sure as well :)

Gourmet Mac N Cheese: I LOVE this… Takes me right back to my childhood – Sunday dinners.  It was also the first recipe my daughter learned to make – so we ate it a lot… All with slightly different variations.

Olivia’s Chicken Wonton Noodle Soup looks lip-smackingly delicious. Anything topped with spoonfuls of chilli oil and has chicken wontons is perfect cold weather fare for me and what’s not to love about an aromatic broth infused with ginger, star anise and cinnamon. As we say, winter wellness in a bowl!

The Spinach, Feta, Ricotta and Currant Pie is packed with everything I love – all wrapped in buttery pastry – so that definitely has my name on it. And the Nut Butter Blueberry Crisp looks like seduction on a plate – every time I see that image I drool. Berries and a crunchy nut topping, plus a dollop of comforting custard? Yuuum!!

I’m going for the Sticky Date Espresso and Whiskey Croissant Pudding because espresso and whiskey are the best things ever (and croissants are definitely top 10) plus I reckon that after dinner is over, this would make a breakfast to look forward to. It helps that the recipe involves ripping up croissants into thirds and just poking them into the dish. How easy does that sound!?
