The recipe I have chosen for February is quick, easy and incredibly hearty.

Honey-glazed Pumpkin Wedges
At the end of this month we have Halloween followed by bonfire night at the start of November - this is a wonderful addition to the menu for both days
Warm Apple Cinnamon and Almond Cake
Our warm dry Spring should prepare us for a really good apple season. This cake needs firm apples which hold their shape.
Dressed Crab
Known as cocks (males) & hens (females) the cocks contain more white meat than the hens. You can tell them apart by their tail flap – it’s narrower and more pointed on the cock and they also have larger claws.
Apricot Pastries
One of my favourite summer fruits is the apricot – their colour, velvety skin and smell are all ambrosial.
Barbecued Mackerel With Ginger, Chilli & Lime
The Ancient Romans used this wonderfully iridescent and striped fish to make a sauce called ‘garum’, not unlike Nam Pla which is used a lot in Thai dishes. Delicious and speedy. They used it as to flavour dishes and in medicine and cosmetics (ooh!)

Wild Salmon is a brilliant source of protein, essential amino acids and vitamins A, D, B6, B2, Niacin, Riboflavin, Calcium, iron, zinc, magnesium & phosphorus and mainly unsaturated fats.

They can grow to be 4ft tall. They are packed with magnesium, iron and calcium. They make a lovely dry, crisp wine. Butterflies love them especially the Red Admiral and the Painted Lady.
Tiramisu
Valentines Day or Saint Valentines Day, celebrated on the 14th February, is an anniversary celebrating love and affection.
Parsnip and Pear Soup with Blue Cheese Croutons
Before the potato arrived in England its place in dishes was taken by either the parsnip, turnip or other root vegetables.
Cranberry Muffins
Most cranberries are water grown. They are grown in bogs and float in the water which makes gathering them very easy.
Roasted Butternut Squash & Sage Risotto with Pine nuts
The butternut squash originates from Mexico and has a nutty, sweet taste similar to a pumpkin.
Bruschetta with Tomato & Basil
This will make enough for about 24 slices of Ciabatta. It will serve 6-10 as a starter or 3-4 for lunch.
Barbecued Mackerel
As its barbeque season I thought I’d offer you an idea for Mackerel
Lemon pancakes with strawberry compote
