Best Stew Ever (Beef and Dumplings)
Rich, thick and hearty, this beef stew will warm you up on those cold winter nights - it's proper comfort food.

Leek and Potato Pie
Try this flavour-packed savoury vegetable pie. It's delicious.

Vegetarian Spring Rolls
I've never had a spring roll from a Chinese takeaway that was remotely enjoyable, but if you make your own they'll be hot, tasty and crispy. Dead easy and yummy!

Cheese and Onion Flan
This British flan isn't quite the same as a quiche, but it could also be called a tart. The difference? Who knows, but it tastes great.

Gingerbread Biscuits / Cookies
Somehow, gingerbread biscuits cut into various shapes have become traditional at Christmas time. They're very easy to make, although the decoration might be a bit of a challenge.

Marmalade Ham
This roast ham glazed with marmalade, ginger and star anise is a splendid addition to the Christmas table - but it works at any time of the year.

Christmas Cake
I've always been put off making Christmas cake by the insistence of purists that you must make it at least five weeks in advance and feed it regularly with brandy to keep it moist. But you can have this cake finished and ready eat in only two days and you'll never know the difference.

Gravadlax Swedish Cured Salmon
Gravadlax - aka gravlax - is cured salmon. It's really easy to make and works out at a fraction of the cost of smoked salmon. Well worth giving it a go.

Salmon Vol-au-vents
Vol-au-vents were the height of sophistication in the 70s but dredged the depths of naffness in later generations. Post-Covid, these little delights are now regaining popularity.

Scrambled Eggs 3 Ways
Scrambled eggs can be a bit tricky to get right using the conventional frying pan method, so here I also give methods for cooking in a microwave or sous-vide.

Keef the Caterpillar Cake
Marks and Spencer introduced their iconic Colin the Caterpillar cake about 30 years ago. It has featured at many a child's birthday party since then and been copied by all the major UK supermarkets. Now Keef Cooks has its own version!

Midget Fidget Pies
The original widget pie comes from Shropshire in England - it's filled with pork and layers of apple and potato. The midget versions are individual-sized and as well as pastry-lidded one, I also show you stuffing and mashed potato alternative tops.

Fidget Pie Pork Apple and Potato Pie
There are many variations to this recipe, especially to do with the filling - some recipes mince the meat and mash it together with the potatoes and apples. Mine keeps them separate and layers them. Sometimes they have a mashed potato or stuffing top.

Chicken Quesadillas
Quesadillas should be really easy - just cheese and other fillings fried or grilled inside a flour or corn tortilla - but getting the cheese melted at the same time as the tortilla is golden takes a bit of practice. Worth it though!

Beef Fajitas
Fajitas are a comparatively recent invention - first made in the 1930s by Mexican cowboys in Texas using the beef they were given as part of their pay, and being commercialised from 1969 onwards. This is a really quick and easy recipe and it tastes great.

Chicken in Cider
This is another Keith Floyd recipe from his TV series Floyd On France - he says it's a well known Breton recipe, although the family he cooked it for had never heard of it. Anyway, serve it with stuffed apples, it's pretty tasty.
