Leila's Knäck (Swedish Toffee)
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
The sweetest of treats for guests - or just yourself!
Zingy Thai Fishcakes
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
These might sound complicated but if you have all the ingredients, all it takes is to blitz everything until smooth, stir through a little spring onion and green beans, fry them and serve for the most delicious little Asian taster!
Rustic Steak Sandwiches
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
I love steak sandwiches done right. Make sure you get bread which is crusty but with a nice dough interior, which means you can pick it up in your hands to eat - the only way steak sandwiches were ever meant to be eaten!
Red Cabbage and Carrot Coleslaw
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
The coleslaw should last 2-3 days if kept in the fridge.
Serves: 8
Carrot and Cardamom Cake with Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
Carrot and cardamom are a wonderful combination of flavours. The cake itself is moist enough but for that extra special touch you can add the delicious cinnamon cream cheese frosting. If you want to go all out, you can make mini carrots out of marzipan with a little orange food colouring and angelica root for the stalks.
Peanut Butter Squares
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
Donal Skehan serves up these bite-sized treats!
Serves: 6
Betty's Ambrosia Cake
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
One of my favourite things to do is to talk on the topic of food with my granny. Learning to cook armed only with cookbooks and a passion for art, with eight hungry mouths to feed and very little money, my granny developed some of the most resourceful cooking skills I know. I love that with barely anything in the house she can produce something incredibly elegant, such as soufflés, without thinking twice. This is a light and rather sophisticated cake that relies heavily on store-cupboard ingredients and is a perfect example of her skill in being able to produce something incredibly impressive out of everyday items.
Serves: 4
Moroccan Spiced Chicken
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
This is a brilliant combination of warming flavours and pure fresh spice. A lovely, quick way to make a meal a little different whilst keeping things really simple and light. Spiced chicken, zingy mayonnaise and crisp green salad, yum!
Serves: 2
Smoked mackerel salad
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
Simple, tasty and fresh, use only the freshest possible.
