Patsy's garlic & chilli prawns
By: Jamie Oliver

“Patsy first tried these amazing garlic and chilli prawns in Torremolinos in southern Spain, where she enjoyed them as part of a delicious tapas spread. These gorgeous prawns are super-easy to recreate at home; the beachfront setting is optional, but for maximum Spanish effect, the chilled wine and crusty bread are not! ”

Ingredients
8 large raw shell-on king prawns , from sustainable sources
3 cloves of garlic
1 fresh red chilli
a few sprigs of fresh flat-leaf parsley
50 ml olive oil , ideally Spanish
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
1 lemon

Method
1)Peel the prawns, removing the heads and leaving the tails on. Run the tip of a knife down the backs of the peeled prawns and pull out and discard the dark vein.
2)Peel the garlic and finely chop with the chilli (deseed if you like). Pick and finely chop the parsley leaves.
3)Drizzle the oil into a shallow heatproof terracotta dish or a small frying pan over a medium-high heat, add the garlic and chilli and fry for 30 seconds to flavour the oil, before stirring in the paprika.
4)Add the prawns and fry for 2 minutes on each side, or until cooked through, adding most of the parsley when you turn the prawns.
5)Squeeze half the lemon juice into the dish, then remove from the heat and sprinkle over the remaining parsley and a pinch of sea salt.
6)Serve sizzling with warm crusty bread, the remaining lemon cut wedges for squeezing over.

Peach & almond Alaska
By: Jamie Oliver

80 g flaked almonds
1 x 410 g tin of peach halves in juice
4 large scoops of vanilla ice cream
2 large free-range eggs
100 g golden caster sugar

Method
1)Preheat the grill to high.
2)Toast the almonds on a tray as it heats up, keeping a close eye on them and removing as soon as lightly golden.
3)Slice up the peaches and divide between four ovenproof bowls, along with their juice. Sit a nice round scoop of ice cream on top of each, and place in the freezer.
4)Separate the eggs. Put the whites into the bowl of a free-standing mixer (save the yolks for another recipe), add a pinch of sea salt and whisk until the mixture forms stiff peaks (you could use an electric hand whisk).
5)With the mixer still running, gradually add the sugar until combined. Spoon into a piping bag (I like a star-shaped nozzle) or a large sandwich bag that you can snip the corner off.
6)Remove the bowls from the freezer and scatter over the toasted almonds.
7)Pipe the meringue over the ice cream as delicately or roughly as you like.
8)Now – I work two at a time to retain maximum control – pop the bowls under the grill for just 2 minutes, or until golden. Remove carefully and serve right away.

Beef Wellington for 2
By: Jamie Oliver

Ingredients
1 red onion
250 g mixed mushrooms
1 x 230 g higher-welfare fillet steak
olive oil
½ a bunch of thyme, (10g)
2 large free-range eggs
1 mug of plain flour, plus extra for dusting
100 g baby spinach
1 x 320 g sheet of all-butter puff pastry

Method
Peel the onion and roughly chop with the mushrooms. Put a 30cm non-stick frying pan on high heat. Season the steak with sea salt and plenty of black pepper and rub with 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Turning with tongs, sear the steak all over for 2 minutes in total, then remove to a plate. Return the pan to medium heat with the onion and mushrooms. Strip in the thyme. Cook for 15 minutes, or until soft, stirring regularly. Blitz in a food processor until spreadable, season to perfection, and remove. Blitz 1 egg, the flour, spinach, a pinch of salt, and 1 mug of water in the processor until smooth. Put your pan back on medium heat, rub with oil, then pour in a thin layer of batter. Cook for 1 minute on each side without color. Tip on to a plate to cool. Cover the leftover batter and chill for breakfast or brunch.

Preheat the oven to 220°C. Sit your pancake on a large sheet of clingfilm. Evenly spread over the mushroom pâté. Place the steak in the center, then gather up the clingfilm and twist into a parcel. Set the wrapped steak (clingfilm discarded) on the pastry, 2cm from one side. Eggwash all the pastry, then fold and mold the excess over the wrapped steak, leaving a pastry border around it. Trim to 2cm, pinch the edges to seal, eggwash, and decorate with the trimmings, if you like. Cook on the bottom of the oven for 25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden on top and crispy underneath, for blushing juicy beef. Rest for 2 minutes, then serve.

Strawberry & cream sandwich sponge
By: Jamie Oliver

“This classic cake is, of course, named after Queen Victoria, the only monarch to reign longer than the current Queen. It’s relatively easy to make but does have a few quirks: you need to get as much air into it as possible and be mindful of its sensitivity to variations in heat. Know your oven well and invest in an oven thermometer! ”

Ingredients
225 g unsalted butter (at room temperature), plus extra for greasing
225 g white caster sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 large free-range eggs
225 g self-raising flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 splash of milk
FILLING
200 ml double cream
1 vanilla pod
1½ tablespoon of icing sugar, plus extra for dusting
250 g fresh strawberries

Method
1)Preheat the oven to 180ºC/gas 4. Grease and line the bases of 2 round 20cm sandwich tins.
2)Cube up the butter, then cream together with the sugar in a large mixing bowl until pale and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla extract.
3)Beat the eggs, then gradually mix into the creamed butter and sugar. Sift, then fold in the flour, baking powder, and ¼ of a teaspoon of sea salt with a large metal spoon until just incorporated (don’t overmix).
4)Stir in 1 splash of milk to loosen the batter, then evenly divide it between the 2 cake tins.
5)Bake the cakes in the oven for 22 to 25 minutes, or until golden and cooked through. To test, insert a skewer into the middle of a cake; it’s ready when the skewer comes out clean. Leave to cool in the tins for 5 minutes, then turn onto a wire rack to cool completely.
6)Once completely cool, pour the cream into a large bowl, scrape in the vanilla seeds and whisk until you have soft peaks.
7)Sift in icing sugar and gently fold through. Place one of the cakes on your chosen plate or cake stand and spread over the vanilla cream, but not right to the edges or it will spill later.
8)Hull and roughly slice the strawberries, then scatter on top of the second cake. Dust with icing sugar and decorate with extra strawberries, if you like.

500 g unsalted butter , (at room temperature), plus extra for greasing
250 g self-raising flour , plus extra for dusting
250 g golden caster sugar
5 large free-range eggs
100 ml milk

7)Repeat with the remaining cakes, then once set, tuck in!

Black forest frozen cheesecake
By: Jamie Oliver

“This is a great make-ahead dessert that will definitely impress your guests! ”

Ingredients
BISCUIT BASE
75 g unsalted butter, plus extra for greasing 
300 g dark chocolate biscuits
FILLING
2 x 425 g tins of dark cherries in syrup
2 clementines
350 g caster sugar
6 large free-range eggs
400 ml double cream
560 g Philadelphia plain cream cheese
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
TOPPING
200 g dark chocolate (70% cocoa solids), plus extra for serving
1 dash of double cream
50 g unsalted butter
1 clementine

Method
Preheat the oven to 180ºC/350ºF/gas 4. Grease the sides and line the base of a deep 23cm loose-bottomed cake tin.
To make the biscuit base, melt the butter in a pan over a low heat. Blitz the biscuits in a food processor until they resemble fine crumbs, then add to the melted butter.
Mix well to coat the crumbs, then tip into the prepared cake tin, spreading it out evenly.
Place in the hot oven for 10 minutes, or until darker in colour, then remove and leave to cool.
Meanwhile, to make the filling, add the tinned cherries and their syrup, the clementine zest and juice and 150g of sugar to a pan over a medium heat.
Cook for around 20 minutes, or until reduced to a syrupy consistency. Leave to cool and set aside.
Separate the egg yolks and whites into 2 separate bowls. Add the remaining 200g of sugar to the yolks, then use an electric whisk to beat for 5 to 7 minutes, or until pale and fluffy.
Whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
Place the cream, cream cheese and vanilla extract into a third bowl and beat into soft peaks.
Fold the egg yolk mixture into the cream cheese mixture and gently fold through the egg whites. Spoon the mixture onto the biscuit base, then gently swirl through the cherry syrup.
Place the cheesecake in the freezer to set overnight.
When you’re nearly ready to serve, make the chocolate glaze topping. Place a medium heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water, then add the dark chocolate, cream and butter. Allow to melt, stirring occasionally.
Remove the cheesecake from the tin and place on a cake stand.
Pour over the chocolate glaze, then decorate with some gratings of dark chocolate and clementine zest. Serve with a gold leaf and sparklers to make it extra special.
