AIR FRYER SPROUT AND BUTTER BEAN BOWL- Air fryer sprouts are so tasty (you can get a very similar effect by roasting, but air fryers use a lot less energy). They go sweet, nutty and soft yet crunchy. We've paired them with butter beans here, which pop and crisp up wonderfully in an air fryer, as well as sweet apple and creamy, salty cheese. The result is a wonderful combo of flavours and textures.

Ingredients:
300g Brussels sprouts
Olive oil
400g tin butter beans (or try chickpeas or cannelleni beans)
1 apple (or pear)
1 lemon
60g feta (stilton would also be great)
Handful chopped parsley

1. Cut the very bottom off the sprouts, peel away any rough outer leaves and halve them. Add them to your air fryer tray with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt and pepper.

2. Cook at 190°C for 5 minutes.

3. Drain your butter beans and pat them dry with kitchen paper. After the sprouts have had 5 minutes, add the beans to the air fryer, with a dash more olive oil. Shake and cook for 10 minutes.

4. Chop the apple into small pieces. Chop the parsley, stalks and all.

5. Once done, add your apple to the sprout mix, squeeze in the juice of the lemon and add more seasoning to taste. Shake to mix.

6. Plate up and crumble over the feta and sprinkle over the parsley.

HONEY GARLIC BAKED CAMEMBERT WITH HERBED NEW POTATOES- This recipe takes the sharing board to a whole new level. Unctuous molten camembert kissed with honey and garlic makes the perfect cloak for herbed potatoes and punchy cornichons. Throw crunchy baguette into the mix and you’ll be fighting your friends and family for the last scoop.

Ingredients:
1 Whole Camembert
1 tbsp Olive Oil
Pinch of Flaky Salt
Pinch of Cracked Black Pepper
2 tbsp Warm Honey
3 Cloves Garlic, Peeled
Few Sprigs Fresh Rosemary
200g Boiled New Potatoes
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley, Chopped
1 tbsp Olive Oil
Cornichons and baguette slices to serve.

Method:
1. Preheat the oven to 170°C. Unwrap the camembert, retaining the wooden box it comes in. Score a cross hatch on the top of the rind and place on a small baking tray.

2. Brush the top with the olive oil and stud the garlic cloves and rosemary at intersections of the crosshatch. Sprinkle with salt and cracked black pepper and bake for 10 minutes.

3. Drizzle with the warm honey then bake for 3-5 minutes more.

4. Meanwhile, mix the potatoes with the olive oil and herbs.

5. Serve the cheese on a beautiful platter with the potatoes, cornichons, and crusty baguette.

CLEMENTINES POACHED IN MULLED WINE- You can make these a few days ahead of time if you like; the longer they store, the more the clementines soak up the flavour. You don’t have to serve them as individual portions – you could use them to top a pavlova-sized meringue as a centrepiece dessert.
