Steak au Poivre
From: Rachel Allen's Dinner Parties
One of my favourite ways to serve steak is this traditional French bistro method. Pepper, a seasoning that often hides in the background barely noticed, is thrust onto centre stage. Where normally we grind peppercorns into a fine powder, here they are left in larger chunks so you notice the flavour and texture as well as the heat.
Chocolate Crèmes Brûlées
From: Rachel Allen's Dinner Parties
My brother-in-law makes this divine chocolate variation of the classic crème brûlée. It is such a pleasing thing to eat, using your spoon to break the crisp sugar barrier to invade the creamy chocolate custard it protects.

Chocolate pecan muffins with a maple glaze
From: Rachel Allen's Cake Diaries
Pecans and maple sauce are a staple of North America, so Rachel encorporates them into a delicious muffin recipe
Smoked Mackerel and Goat's Cheese Soufflé
From: Rachel Allen's Dinner Parties
Cheese soufflé is a classic and not nearly as scary a dinner party prospect as you might imagine. This version, with goat's cheese and smoked mackerel, is a fantastic variation on the theme.
Total Time: 5
Instant Dips
From: Rachel Allen: Easy Meals
These are seriously quick to make and burst with flavour. Paired with some crunchy fresh vegetables this dish is also healthy and light.
Steamed Mussels with Cream and Herbs
From: Rachel Allen Home Cooking
A great big bowl of steaming mussels in the centre of the table is a tempting treat for everyone!
Serves: 4
