    "Just made this, and it was very nearly a disaster! Although the ingredients are fine, the method gives the impression that you can add the oil without stopping from the very beginning, which isn't the case. I did this, and everything curdled horribly. I managed to rescue it, however, by beating another egg yolk in a separate bowl, and then very gradually whisking the curdled mixture in."

    "A really delicious, warming soup - it would be ideal on a cold winter's night!"

    Artichoke, lemon & parmesan pasta

    Tested

    "A nice, light summer recipe - also good with tinned artichokes, which is all we had in the cupboard!"

    Squash, sage & Gruyère frittata

    Tested

    "I really enjoyed making and eating this recipe - it's true, the squash does take a bit longer to cook than you expect, but it's worth it in the end. To make chopping it quicker, you can buy ready-peeled squash in some supermarkets, which cuts down the preparation time a lot. "

    "I made these on Christmas Eve, and they went down a storm. I'll definitely make them again, as they were so quick to do, and a much lighter-tasting alternative to traditional mince pies."
