Cinnamon Rolls Christmas Tree
Cinnamon rolls are a delicious treat all year round, but for the festive season why not make it extra special by doing it in the shape of a Christmas tree?

Lasagna British Style
Italians and Americans both have quite different ideas of what lasagna is, but this is what Brits think it is. The name, by the way - 'lasagna' is a single sheet of the flat pasta. 'Lasagne' is the plural. But we tend to call it lasagna anyway because the English language doesn't like pronouncing unaccented e's at the end of words.

Air Fryer Cheese Scones
Air fryers are becoming ever more popular because they are so cheap to run. Despite the misleading name, air fryers are actually mini convection ovens and perfect for baking small quantities.

Air Fryer Chicken
We're all familiar with southern fried chicken, but here's a cheaper and healthier way to make it. It's cheaper because it's cooked in an air fryer, which is the secondmost economical cooking device in your kitchen. And it's healthier because it uses only a tiny amount of oil. But it still has a good crunchy coating and it drips with juice!

Lorne Sausage
Lorne Sausage from Scotland is also known as square sausage, sliced sausage, square slice and flat sausage. It's usually more rectangular than square and it is flat, not stuffed into a casing. This makes it incredibly easy to make. It can be served as part of a cooked Scottish breakfast, or in a morning roll with broon sauce.

Morning Rolls
Morning rolls, or breakfast rolls are a Scottish tradition. They have a soft, fluffy interior and a slightly crunchy crust. Except in Glasgow where the rolls are 'well-fired' to the extent that they look burnt.

The Best Cheese on Toast
Basic cheese on toast is a superb quick and easy tummy filler, but this slightly more elaborate version takes it to the next level. It really is The Best Cheese On Toast You'll Ever Have. And it's still quick, easy and cheap to make.

Cock-a-Leekie Soup
This traditional Scots soup of chicken, leeks and prunes, is usually served as part of a Burn's Night Supper in January, and on St Andrew's Day in November. But of course you can make it any time you like.

Toffee Apple Cake and Caramel Apples
In Britain, toffee apples were associated with Bonfire Night, fairgrounds, and more recently with Halloween. The toffee was usually bright red, extremely brittle and very hard on your teeth. This version is a softer caramel that is much more pleasant. Add the flavours of toffee apples to a cake and you've got a real treat!

Chicken Fricassée
Chicken fricassee is a very old French dish. The word 'fricassee' refers both to the name of the dish and the method of cooking. A fricassee basically is pieces of meat (chicken, rabbit, maybe veal) fried and then cooked in their juices. It's very easy, quite quick, and massively tasty.

Pie and Mash with Liquor
Dating from the times when London's River Thames was cleaner and full of life, these pies would originally have contained eels - the accompanying sauce is made from the liquid (the liquor) the eels were cooked in, along with a load of parsley that gives it its green colour. Nowadays the most common filling is minced beef, although finely diced beef can also be used.

Cassoulet
There are three main variations on cassoulet - the one from Toulouse uses mutton, the Castelnaudary one includes confit duck legs and pork, the Carcassonne one has poultry such as goose and partridges. This recipe is based on the middle one but with chicken instead of duck. It's a proper winter warmer and you can make it in a slow cooker.

This delicious dessert is a miracle of engineering - a ton of apple filling held together by the thinnes of pastries. I would say that making this is not for the faint-hearted, but it's well worth a go.
