Prep 75 minutes
Cook 45-50 minutes
INGREDIENTS
Crust
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, plus more for the work surface
- 1 tsp sugar
- ¾ tsp kosher salt
- 8 tbsp unsalted butter, cut into ½-inch cubes
- 3 tbsp cold water
Filling
- 4 ounces ground breakfast sausage
- 4 ounces pancetta or thick-cut bacon, diced
- 3 slices deli ham, torn into bite-size pieces
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 2/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2/3 cup shredded gouda cheese
METHOD
- Make the crust: Place the flour, sugar, salt, and butter in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse to combine, until the mixture resembles wet sand, about 2 minutes.
- Transfer the contents of the food processor to a large bowl. Add the cold water and stir until a shaggy dough forms. Knead the dough with your hands until smooth, about 2 minutes. Shape the dough into a disc, wrap with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- While the dough chills, make the filling: Cook the sausage and pancetta in a skillet over medium-high heat, breaking apart the sausage with a wooden spoon. Continue cooking until the sausage and pancetta are crispy and cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain off and discard any excess fat. Add the deli ham and set aside the mixture to cool slightly.
- Beat together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper in a small bowl until smooth. Toss together both cheeses in a separate small bowl. Set aside.
- Place an oven rack in the lower third position of the oven. Heat the oven to 375°F.
- Turn out the chilled dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll out to a thickness of 14 inch. Carefully transfer the dough to a pie plate. Trim the dough, leaving a 12-inch overhang, then crimp the edges.
Growing up in Germany, Verena remembers two camps when it came to potato salad: camp mayo and camp oil/broth.
One of my guilty go-to takeaways, perfect with a homemade flatbread and a yogurt dip. It’s so moreish and a lot cheaper than ordering in.
What better way to welcome the weekend than with the smell and sound of frying herb-loaded ijeh?
‘Fish doesn’t have to be boring—my mother taught me that. Samkeh harra translates to “spicy fish,” though it’s more about a gentle kick than true heat. It’s a perfect balance of creamy, nutty tahini and the crunch of golden, roasted nuts. Oh, I do love nuts! I usually overload my plate so you almost can’t see the fish anymore, but that’s me. The nuts bring a deep, toasty richness that elevates the dish into something truly irresistible.’
These festive pavlovas are dipped in white chocolate and topped with toasted hazelnuts, cream and berry sauce to make an impressive dessert.
Think of this as exactly what Nando’s wishes it was: vibrant spicy chicken with crispy skin served with crunchy fries and a spicy dipping sauce. Piri piri chillies aren’t widely available in Australia, unless you grow them yourself, but bird’s-eye chillies are easy to find and they do the trick.
I don’t remember much about the circumstances of my first cherry clafoutis. But I must have loved the classic French farmhouse dessert, because I’ve been trying to reproduce that first custardy, almond-scented pancake ever since.
Not quite a red curry, not quite a satay, this dish is the best of both worlds, inspired by Thai flavours and it is divine. It’s a throw-and-go recipe and I know we all love those at BOL. Perfect served with creamy coconut rice, some sliced red chilli and flatbreads.
Camellia Punjabi's recipe for the classic North Indian dish of stir-fried peppers with paneer is flavoured with a medley of spices and aromatics and makes for a brilliant vegetarian dish.
‘I always think that canapés should box slightly above their weight – in other words, they need to be vividly flavoured to succeed. Here, the combination of crisp brioche, salty feta, pickled walnuts, figs, honey and thyme is just that. If you like, there’s a recipe for pickling your own green walnuts on page 275 of Rick Stein’s Christmas. You can also make this with slices of goat’s cheese from a log instead of the whipped feta.’
These adorably spooky cookies are the perfect Halloween biscuit, with a perfect chocolate crumb and a coating of marshmallow cobwebs. You can also create a seasonal variation for Bonfire Night featuring a sprinkling of edible gold dust.
