Recipes for Spring
The signs of spring are all around sweeping away winter gloom with shoots of green and buds aplenty.
Rhubarb, spring greens, leeks, cauliflower and spring onions are all perfect at this time of year. So now is the time to tuck into Ainsley Harriot’s char char chicken with leeks or our five-spiced pork belly with stir fried spring greens. Then from April, when cauliflower hits its stride, try Sophie Wright’s brilliant cauliflower fritters.
The season is peppered with religious and celebratory dates with food playing its part. Whether you will be treating your mum on Mother’s Day, whizzing up delicious pancakes on Shrove Tuesday, celebrating the home nations on their Saint’s days or baking cakes for Easter, check out our great recipe ideas on these pages.
