This is a beautiful soup which can be served hot (or on warm days) very cold. Place soup bowls in fridge for a while before serving to ensure both are VERY cold.

To freeze, after sieving the soup, season and put into suitable containers and freeze. Remove when required, defrost, add cream and reheat.


Summer Soup

Nice served in individual dishes as a starter, or on a buffet table at a barbecue.

Sweet & Sour Mushrooms

A very tropical dish for a summer buffet.

You can use paw-paws or one of each, instead of all mangoes.


Mango & Chicken Salad

This is an old-time favourite and always the first sweet to dissapear.

St Clements Trifle

Cider Baked Potatoes

Have plenty of paper towels handy for sticky fingers.


Golden Drummers

There are lots of recipes for cheesecakes and I have tried most. This simple one is a great favourite with my friends and especially the girls in my husband's office who sample it each Christmas.

Mandarin and Kiwi Cheesecake

These make a nice refreshing end to a nice Christmas dinner.

This may be made in advance and frozen in suitable containers.


Oranges in Cointreau

Christmas time is party time - this recipe would be suitable for the buffet table or as finger food at an informal gathering. This will freeze, which will be handy for the busy housewife (sic).

This slice will freeze for 3 months. Thaw at room temperature and reheat for 10 minutes at the above temperature.


Ham and Cheese Savoury Slices

These little savouries freeze well and are nice to serve with drinks. With thanks to Karen M for the photo.

To serve, warm slightly for about 5 minutes at the above temperature. Will freeze.


Salmon Pinwheels

These are much tastier than the ordinary roasted drumsticks. Have plenty of paper napkins around when serving as they are sticky to handle.

May be frozen if you wish, but I prefer to cook them the day before needed.


Devilled Chicken Drumsticks

This is a great favourite with the Inglewood Infants School staff. No wonder she can't lose weight! (sic)

Will freeze well in suitable containers for 3 months.
