Starters

Whilst there are a few ingredients with this dish, most are in store cupboards so it shouldn’t be too difficult. As you’re using raw beef, it’s a pretty quick dish to put together, however its important you spend time to get the best quality beef you can! This recipe is very French and, although The Corner House is all about celebrating great British food, I wanted to include it as they are friendly neighbours, who know more than a thing or two about great food.

This dish has been on the menu since we opened The Corner House at Minster. It is one of my personal favourites. The sweetness of the port jelly perfectly complements the savouriness of the chicken livers and gives the dish balance. It’s also a great dinner party starter as it can be prepared in advance and stored in the fridge. All you have to do when your guests arrive is serve it with toast.

This is a very simple recipe. It’s a dish that I genuinely love because it shows the humble cauliflower in all of its glory. Cauliflower is a beautiful vegetable that is frequently under- utilised; though I’m not sure why when it’s packed with so much flavour. When cauliflower is roasted in the oven, it caramelises and takes on a delicious nutty flavour as the natural sugars intensify. This creamy and indulgent soup puts a smile on people’s faces in the winter months.
