When our friend Dom In The Kitchen announced he was publishing his book: Upside Down Cooking, our first question was, what shall we cook?! After much deliberation, we settled on this French Onion Soup Tarte Tatin. Not only is it a perfect example of the simplicity and flavour that can be achieved with Dom’s upside-down cooking method, it also paired perfectly with our new Blackberry Vinaigrette.

The gloriously golden shallots with nutty gruyere and golden puff pastry are an absolute treat and one we think you’ll want to repeat time and time again. So delicious!

Note: You’ll need a 25cm heavy-based oven-proof frying pan.

Sometimes the simplest recipes are the ones we treasure the most – like these chocolate and banana muffins! Not only are they a great way to use up leftover bananas, they are made with just 7 ingredients and make a wonderful rainy day activity to enjoy with kids.

Perfect bite-size treats for after school, car journeys and parties.

The perfect pairing for cheese, cured meats and olives – grissini is a guaranteed hit for al fresco get togethers. Originating in Turin in Italy, around the 17th century, they were initially created as a way to provide a long, easily-eaten bread that wouldn’t go stale quickly. But we don’t think you’ll need to worry about these hanging around for too long – they are deliciously moreish.

We’ve used some sourdough starter in this recipe but they are just as good with instant yeast and refreshingly simple to make. Enjoy them with our wild garlic pesto and smoked hummus, or an antipasti platter.

Bellissimo!

These pretty Simnel Muffins are an exciting twist on the tradition Easter Simnel cake we enjoy at this time of year.

This recipe uses Mellow Yellow Rapeseed Oil providing a subtle buttery taste, making it perfect for these muffins. Our Mellow Yellow Rapeseed Oil is also low in saturated fat and high in Omega 3

We’ve combined all the flavours of falafel in this great salad, but without the faff of making actual falafel! The result is a type of deconstructed dish that’s layered with flavour and beautiful clashing textures that are a joy to eat. Cooked quickly and easily in the air fryer (or roasted in the oven), we combine chickpeas with onions, garlic and spices, our Mellow Yellow Cold Pressed Rapeseed Oil working its magic to bring everything together in one delicious mixture.

Served on a bed of salad leaves with refreshing pickled red cabbage and onion slaw, a topping of creamy whipped feta finishes things off perfectly. Enjoy as a BBQ side or tasty mid-week meal.

If you’re a cauliflower cheese fan, this creamy gnocchi by Emily on Toast is going to tick ALL of the boxes!

The cauliflower is roasted in our delicious, subtly nutty Mellow Yellow cold pressed rapeseed oil before being blitzed into a cheese sauce with the other ingredients for an outstanding flavour and creamy texture. If you’ve extra cauliflower leaves left over, roast them up and add them to the final dish for extra nutrients and a touch of vibrant green.
