These little almond cakes, also known as friands, used to be baked ready for opening time each morning for customers to enjoy with a morning coffee they make a fine morning tea cake or can be made in tiny ramekins as petits fours. Top them with a single piece of seasonal fruit, such as strawberry, blueberry, raspberry, mango or kiwi fruit. It's possible to substitute half of the ground almonds with ground coconut or ground pistachios to add a different flavour and texture. Should you have any leftover batter, it will keep in the refrigerator for about three days.

If the chicken is skinless, wrap it in prosciutto, which will hold in the stuffing, and crisp in the oven.

During her youth, Casey Ryan relied heavily on her grandmother Gladys Wall's cooking and only learnt to cook for herself when she left home for university.
She credits her gran with her relaxed attitude to baking and also for some Tuesday morning-tea specialties. "My grandmother was always very relaxed in the kitchen but we were spoilt."

Few ingredients herald the start of a long, hot summer more clearly than cherries.
A bowl of cherries on the dining room table or in the kitchen not only looks beautiful, it makes a wonderful snack.

For the past few weeks we have been receiving large bags of whole walnuts in the restaurant. We seem to go through kilos of them. Why do we bother with walnuts in the shell? Isn't it a lot of work? The answer to the latter question is yes, and the answer to the former question is a little more involved.

Special note: Using your fingertips, take the amount of batter you need for one doughnut. Flick your wrist and snap the batter into the palm of your hand and with your arm over the deep fryer - from a height - being careful not to burn yourself, gradually make a fist starting with your index finger and then the rest of your fingers, squeeze the batter out with speed so the doughnut forms its shape upon impact in the hot oil. The snap technique comes with practice.

Ciabatta is ideal here because you need a proper crust to stand up to the tomatoey juices and creamy eggs. This is way too good for breakfast and is much deserving of a decent glass of wine.

This can easily be made up to 4 hours beforehand. If you leave it longer, it will still taste delicious, but the biscuits become mushy making it hard to slice.

You're too old for a teddy bear. Nobody rubs Vicks VapoRub on your chest at night any more, reads you stories with happy endings, or warms your little pyjamas by the fire. But - thank heavens - you can still eat gingerbread.
