sicilian meatballs

Another one from someone who's becoming a quiet hero of mine, Angela Boggiano, as usual crafting taste, thrift and technique in a clever way.

Meatballs: turkey mince, lemon zest, breadcrumbs, paprika, a little cayenne, parsley. I fry them all ove, then add some chicken stock to the pan. This gets them all moist and part-poaches them. Toss in some cooked spaghetti and a little more parsley, and you're there. Easy and tasty.

turkey, broccoli & stilton pie

I bloody love filo pastry. Crispy, buttery and melt-in-the-mouth, can't get enough of it. I've pressed it into service here (ready-rolled stuff -blow making it from scratch!) atop an unctuous savoury pie.

The filling is dead easy. Turkey is fried to browning, then a few chopped broccoli florets are added. After a few minutes a can of Baxter's Ham, Broccoli & Stilton soup is added, and once warm put into a dish and topped with pastry. Lovely.
