Lamb Biryani Pie
Inspired by the dum cooking method of Hyderabadi biryani, where the lid is sealed to the pot with dough, this pie does away with the pot altogether and bakes the biryani inside a pie case. Carb overload? You decide.

Spam Potato and Chilli Fritters with Pineapple Relish
Spam® has something of a mixed reputation - some Pacific nations consider it a delicacy, while here in the UK many folk look down on it. I think it's a good-quality product, reasonably priced, easy to cook with and zero waste. This simple potato and Spam fritter recipe adds a bit of fire with some chilli peppers and the accompanying pineapple relish adds sweet sharpness.

Coronation Quiche
This vegetarian quiche was chosen for the Coronation of King Charles III in May 2023. The published recipe isn't very easy for inexperienced cooks so I've tweaked a few things. Give it a go - it tastes great!

Chilli Potato Bake
This dish features a basic British-style chilli con carne sauce - it's very mild and has nothing much to do with American versions. The chilli is layered with sliced potato, topped with cheese and is pure comfort food.

Vesta® Chow Mein Copycat
I recently reviewed a packet of Vesta® Chow Mein and found it totally disgusting. This version is 3½ million times better - very tasty and quite easy to make. It's not much like a true beef chow mein, but then neither is the Vesta version.

RECIPE
Steak and Kidney Fray Bentos® Copycat
I reviewed a Fray Bentos® 'pie' recently and was asked by some viewers if I could have a go at making one. I have to say the steak and kidney filling was magnificent, but the puff pastry lid is always going to be a problem.

RECIPE
Chicken and Stuffing Pie
This is a 'picnic' version of chicken and stuffing pie. Like a pork pie, it's intended to be eaten cold. There's no sauce to dribble everywhere, but we have used a little trick to keep the chicken moist.
