    Halloumi with broad beans & artichokes

    Tested

    "This is a really lovely, quick recipe - perfect for a mid-week supper. As AliceS points out - it can be whipped up from store cupboard/ freezer ingredients. Adding extra veg was also a great suggestions - I used fresh broad beans and tinned artichokes alongside the peas. I wish I'd had some courgettes. The wine was also a great idea. I would say that this certainly wouldn't have fed four in our house - we polished it off quite happily (ok, not quite the whole block of cheese but almost) between the two of us. "

    Salmon with lemon pesto crust

    Tested

    "This really is super easy and super quick. I made it with tomato pesto as that's all I had and added some roast tomatoes alongside to serve. If you wanted a mid-week supper to cook for friends which was extremely quick but looked like you'd made the effort, this is it. "

    "Using leeks instead of celery works brilliantly. A good grating of parmesan on the top also gives it the edge it needs."

    "This really is as squidgy and delicious as it sounds. A real winner of a cake and so easy to make. I've also tried it with pears and it worked brilliantly. It's a great way to use up fruit slightly past its best. I've convinced myself it's also the perfect way to fit in another one of my five a day...."

    "Good to find a recipe that uses up egg whites. I cooked mine longer than the recipe instructs but they were still a bit soggy. I will try using less butter next time too. They're much lighter than a muffin. I also didn't notice about melting the butter so mine wasn't entirely cool when poured into the batter - I'm not sure if this made a difference. I also wondered if I should fold in the egg whites or just mix it in - does anyone know?"
