Snacks and nibbles
Hosting a relaxed gathering with friends or family this bank holiday weekend? Why not put try some of these recipes. Great for sharing and easy to scale up or down depending on the number of guests.
BBQ Chicken Teriyaki Hearts
These yakitori skewers are perfect for any occasion and will be ready in no time too. They’re a great addition to a casual BBQ session outside or can be easily grilled in your oven at home. We use chicken hearts with their lovely texture and flavour, but you could switch out for another offal or cut of meat if you prefer.
Stuffed Courgettes with Chilli Honey
How beautiful are these? These flowers are a wonderful by-product of courgettes and are delicious in their own right. We love stuffing them with ricotta and gently frying them before drizzling this spiced honey over. Delish!
Baked Camembert with Summer Truffle
Great for those slightly cooler days, but who can ever resist gooey baked cheese? Especially when generously coated in fresh summer truffle.
Mains

Smoky Chipotle Iberico Pork Ribs
