Golden Syrup
Golden syrup is used in many cake and biscuit / cookie recipes. It can be quite expensive, depending on where you live. But did you know you can make your own? All it takes is sugar, water, a bit of lemon juice and about an hour.

Pho - Vietnamese Beef and Noodle Soup
Pho (pronounced like 'fur' but without sounding the 'r') is the national dish of Vietnam. It's a soup of rice noodles and beef in an intensely flavoured beef broth. The Vietnamese eat pho at any time of day, especially at breakfast. The name is thought to come from when Vietnam was a French colony - pho is an Asianised version of the French dish pot-au-feu. The broth takes care and time to make, so make a large quantity and freeze any that you don't use within a week.

Albóndigas en Salsa - Meatballs in Sauce
These little meatballs are quite popular in restaurants and cafés all over Spain. It's one of those dishes where everyone's mother has her own recipe, and hers is unquestionably the best. Unusually for Spanish meals, albóndigas actually come with a bit of gravy.

Melton Mowbray-style Pork Pie
A good pork pie is a wonderful thing. Flavoursome pork coated in jelly and encased in crispy pastry. But 'Melton Mowbray Pork Pie' is now an EU protected name, so this is *not* a Melton Mowbray pork pie. Sorry 'bout that.

Eggnog
Eggnog is a delicious winter drink, especially around Christmas time. It's very popular in the US and Canada, and quite similar to the Dutch Advocaat. This recipe is custard-based, so the eggs are cooked and nobody has to worry about salmonella.

Real Tomato Soup
I recently tried some Heinz tomato soup. I used to adore this as a kid, but as an adult, meh. This is my recipe for real home-made tomato soup, made from real tomatoes, and it's real tasty. Also easy to make and cheap too.

Moussaka
I wouldn't say this is an authentic Greek recipe for moussaka, but it's certainly tasty. A rich minced meat and tomato sauce, layered with aubergine (eggplant) and topped with a creamy bechamel sauce. I don't know any Greeks to try this moussaka on, but I'm sure they'd love it!

Pulled Pork Sandwich with BBQ Sauce
