Greendale Gin & Lemon Drizzle Loaf Recipe

Flavoured with our own, locally-distilled gin, this special twist on the classic Lemon Drizzle cake is a perfect teatime treat for G&T-loving mums everywhere.

Pesto Peas & Egg on Toast Recipe

Despite sounding like a bit of a faff, this is actually a quick, easy recipe, made with ingredients you’ll probably have to hand in your freezer and store cupboard. It also happens to be delicious!

Leftover Lamb Ragu with Fettucine Recipe

This rich, slightly spicy sauce is a great way to make a satisfying family meal from leftover roast lamb – best of all, it can be ready and on the table in about half an hour. Serves 4.

Greendale Green Shakshuka

Traditionally made with tomatoes, this tasty alternative Shakshuka is a celebration of all things green – we’ve used leeks, spring greens and green peppers here, but feel free to swap in other veg (spinach, shredded savoy cabbage, broccoli and even peas are all good).

Moussaka Recipe

Based on a classic Greek dish, this delicious recipe is so much more than just a good way to use up leftover lamb. Wonderful Mediterranean flavours mingle with the rich lamb, and (because it’s all topped off with crème fraîche and cheddar instead of a flour-based white sauce) it’s a little lighter than normal moussaka, too. Serves 4.

Butterflied Leg of Lamb with Mint Raita Recipe

Juicy lamb works perfectly with fiery harissa and a cooling yoghurt raita in this Moroccan-inspired recipe. If you have time, leave the meat to marinate overnight for maximum flavour. Serves 6.

Leek, Cheddar & Thyme Croustade Recipe

Slow-cooked leeks, rich Cheddar and fresh herbs make this a super meat-free centrepiece for your festive table. Serve with roast potatoes, a tangy chutney or cranberry sauce and a selection of your favourite veg. Serves 4.

Garlic Lemon Roast Chicken Recipe

Flavoured with delicious lemony garlic butter, this easy one-tin roast chicken recipe is perfect for a spring celebration. The gravy couldn’t be simpler – if you’re feeling adventurous, you can use the giblets (packaged separately and supplied with the chicken) to make your own stock. Either way, the end result is worth the wait!

Thumbprint Cookies Recipe

With a little adult help, young children can have a go at making these easy cookies – whether they enjoy weighing ingredients, rolling dough, making thumbprints or adding the Nutella and decorating, there are plenty of ways for them to get stuck in! Makes about 25 cookies, but dough can be divided and frozen before cooking, if fewer cookies are needed.

Chicken & Leek Pot Pie Recipe

This delicious, savoury pie is pretty straightforward to put together (you can even make the filling ahead of time and refrigerate it until needed). Serve with salad or your favourite seasonal veg. Serves 4.

Yorkshire Puddings with Hawkridge Cheddar

Representing deliciousness from the two largest counties in the UK, these easy individual Yorkshire puddings will make a super side-dish for your next Sunday roast.

Roast Leg of Lamb in a Honey Marinade

This impressive-looking roast is perfect for entertaining, especially as it’s quick and easy to prepare; the simple marinade works its magic overnight, so all you need to do is put it in the oven the next day! Serves 8.

Greendale Kedgeree

This delicious spiced fish dish makes a perfect brunch or dinner with friends. It’s a great showcase for tasty smoked haddock, though other smoked fish (such as hake) can be used equally successfully. Serves 6.

Cauliflower Steaks with Caper Butter Recipe

Cauliflower is quartered into chunky steaks, then oven-roast before being topped with caper butter, crunchy herbed breadcrumbs and slivered almonds. Serve with cooked grains and a dollop of your favourite hummus for a main meal. Serves 2

Shin of Beef in a Rich Mushroom Stew Recipe

Shin of beef is simmered until meltingly tender in this rich, savoury stew. Served with creamy mashed potatoes, this is a hearty, warming meal that’s perfect for chilly evenings. Serves 6.

Moroccan-Style Stew

This fragrant, subtly-spiced stew will make a hearty meal out of left-over roast lamb. Despite the fairly long list of ingredients, it’s a simple, flexible recipe - you can change it to include your favourite pulses and vegetables, and swap the cayenne pepper for a chopped fresh chilli if you prefer a little extra heat! Serves 2-4.

Moroccan Fish Stew Recipe

Inspired by the classic Moroccan Tagine, this spicy, warming stew is just the ticket for cold evenings. We’ve used Whiting for this recipe, but you can happily substitute Hake, Pollock or any other sustainably-fished white fish. Serves 4.

Pork & Lemon Casserole

Made with fresh lemon zest and simmered ‘low and slow’, this simple but delicious recipe produces a mouth-wateringly tender finished dish. Serves 4.

Lamb Salad with Feta

Heavy roasts and indulgent desserts (not to mention all that chocolate!) can leave you wishing for a lighter meal. Fresh-tasting and full of flavour, this easy salad is a great way to enjoy left-over roast lamb and takes just minutes to put together. Serves 2 generously.

Easy Tray-Bake Sponge Cake

With a bit of adult help, mini-bakers can cook up a sweet Mother’s Day Treat with this simple sponge-cake recipe. As well as the basic cake mix, we’ve suggested some flavour variations and a couple of icing ideas – feel free to tweak them as much as you like, and make a special, one-off cake for your special, one-off mum! Makes one large tray-bake, which you can cut into large or small squares.

Boeuf Bourguignon Recipe

This traditional French recipe has several variations, but all feature meltingly tender beef steak braised in a rich, savoury red-wine sauce. Serve with lots of creamy mashed potato, crusty bread (or any other good sauce sopper-upper!). Serves 4-6.

Warming Braised Venison

Rich, warming and delicious, this generously-sized dish is great for entertaining.

White Fish with Leeks & Soft Herbs

Fresh from West-Country waters, hake is a great-tasting and more sustainable alternative to cod. Here, it’s paired with a creamy leek sauce and fresh herbs, for a taste of springtime. Serves 4.

Lamb Chops with Roast Veg & Feta

Flavoured with fresh herbs and topped with feta cheese, juicy lamb chops are cooked on a colourful bed of veg in this Mediterranean-inspired recipe. Serve it with warm ciabatta and a mixed-leaf salad - it’s sure to make a delicious dinner for that special someone! Serves 2.

Celeriac, Walnut and Devon Blue Gratin

Celeriac may not be the prettiest of vegetables, but give it a chance and you will be pleasantly surprised. It has a nutty flavour, akin to that of celery, and complements the blue cheese and walnuts in this creamy gratin perfectly. Serves 4.

Lamb Steak, Rosemary Butter & Asparagus

Tender lamb with herb-scented butter and griddled Asparagus spears.

Griddled Lamb with Tenderstem Recipe

A quick, simple and super-tasty meal – perfect when time is short and stomachs are rumbling! We like to serve this with mash or new potatoes alongside.

Blueberry Muffins Recipe

Great fun to make with kids, these tasty muffins are perfect for special breakfasts or teatime treats. The blueberries will burst inside the muffins during cooking, leaving sweet-tasting pops of juicy squidginess – if (like us) you can’t resist eating these muffins straight from the oven, be aware that the burst berries can be pretty hot! Makes approximately 12 muffins.

Roast Shoulder of Lamb with Tomato Sauce

A 'low and slow' cooking method makes this shoulder of lamb incredibly tender (and gives you time to get on with other things while it’s in the oven). The rich tomato sauce is the perfect accompaniment – we also like to steam some broccoli or green beans to serve alongside. Serves 4-6.

Lamb and Potato Pie Recipe

This hearty pie recipe takes a little longer to make, but it’s worth the time and effort when you taste the rich, savoury lamb, leek and potato filling and the crisp pastry topping. Serves 4.

Spicy Lamb & Egg Wraps Recipe

Lean minced lamb is cooked with aromatic spices and spinach, then piled on to flatbreads and topped with a perfect fried egg – delicious!

Wild Garlic & Pea Risotto Recipe

We know spring has arrived here in Devon, because the green lanes and woodland are currently bursting with wild garlic leaves – you can smell it from quite a distance! Handily, this unique smell makes Wild Garlic (also known as Ramsons) one of the easiest and safest wild foods to forage, as it’s pretty unmistakeable. Seek out a Wild Garlic colony that’s growing above dog-level and away from busy roads or footpaths, and pick only one or two leaves from each plant to minimise damage. The beautiful starry white flowers and buds make a pretty garnish, though again, be sparing if you pick them. Recipe serves 4, generously.

Rack of Lamb Rosemary, Dijon Mustard

Rack of Lamb always makes a great centrepiece – this recipe uses simple ingredients that really let complement the rich flavour of the meat. Serves 4.

Venison Steaks with Mushroom & Whiskey Sauce Recipe

Make the most of seasonal venison with this simple but hearty dish. We like to serve it with mash or chunky bread, to soak up all that delicious sauce! Serves 2

Venison Sausages Braised in Red Wine Recipe

A cracking cold-weather recipe, this savoury sausage braise is fragrant with winter herbs and rich with the flavours of red wine and venison.

Potted Shrimps

This simple recipe uses spiced, clarified butter to preserve the shrimp for later use. Originally hailing from the north of England, where it’s still made with tiny brown Morecambe Bay Shrimps, it’s a great way to use Brown Shrimps (or any other shrimps). Best served with a big plate of warm toast. Serves 6.
