СКАЧАТЬ the roulade by first melting the margarine. Beat in the flour and then incorporate the milk until you have a smooth sauce. Season to taste with thyme, salt and pepper. Stir in the grated courgette (zucchini), half the mixed nuts and the egg yolks and remove from the heat.

      In a large bowl, whisk the egg whites until stiff, then spoon one tablespoonful into the courgette (zucchini) mixture and blend gently. Now fold in the remaining egg whites very carefully using a metal spoon.

      Scrape the mixture into the prepared tin and sprinkle with a little cayenne pepper.

      Bake for 15–20 minutes until puffy but firm. Turn the roulade onto a piece of baking parchment (wax paper) that has been sprinkled with the remaining nuts.

      Peel off the baking paper. Slice off the ends if they look a little dry. Spread the warm filling mixture over the roulade and gently use the paper underneath to help you roll up the roulade.

      Slide the roulade carefully onto a warm serving dish and decorate with fresh parsley. Accompany the dish with Cranberry Sauce (see page 83).

      Wild Mushrooms with Lentils Provençal

       Autumn walks in the woods, with glorious coloured leaves and crisp, clean air is to me one of the marvels of nature. Nestling under the leaves and around the huge old trees bloom delicious wild mushrooms to be collected along the way.

       This lovely French recipe can be used with fresh or dried mushrooms of your choice.

       Serves 4

      1 litre/35fl oz/4 cups of water

      1 large red onion, peeled and thinly sliced

      255g/9oz/1½ cups of Puy or green lentils

      240ml/8fl oz/1 cup of sweet red vermouth

      1 tablespoon of (GF) vegetable stock (bouillon) powder

      Salt and freshly ground black pepper

      Freshly grated nutmeg

      3 sprigs of fresh rosemary

      40g/1½oz/2 cups of dried, mixed wild mushrooms (any quantity of fresh ones)

      Boil the water in a non-stick pan, add the onion and cook for about 10 minutes. Add the lentils and continue cooking over medium–high heat for another 10 minutes, stirring from time to time. (If the liquid reduces too much, add some more water.)

      Pour in the vermouth and cook for 5 minutes. Now stir in the stock (bouillon) powder, salt and pepper, nutmeg and rosemary, reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.

      Finally, mix in the mushrooms and leave the pot to simmer for about 20 minutes. Adjust the seasoning and serve with warm bread and a fresh green salad.

      Honey Glazed Turnips

       It’s virtually impossible to get me to eat a turnip, but seduced by the idea of wild honey and thyme I succumbed to bribery. I now treat them with respectful awe, amazed that anything so bland can be transformed into something so delicious.

       Serves 6–8

      24 baby turnips, peeled and trimmed

      2 heaped tablespoons of (GF/DF) four-grain mustard

      6 tablespoons of wild runny honey

      2 tablespoons of sunflower oil

      Salt and freshly ground black pepper

      2 heaped teaspoons of fresh thyme leaves

      Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas mark 4

      Add the turnips to a pan of boiling water. Return to the boil and cook for 5 minutes just to soften them. Drain and refresh under hot water and leave to dry out a bit.

      Gently heat the mustard, honey and oil together and season with a little salt and pepper.

      Place the turnips on a non-stick baking sheet, pour the honey over them and sprinkle with thyme.

      Bake in the oven until golden brown and sticky, about 1¾ hours, or until cooked through, basting occasionally with the glaze so that they brown evenly.

      Celeriac Dauphinoise

       You can always replace half of the celeriac with potato slices if you find this recipe too expensive. It has a soft and delicious flavour and is ideal with grilled (broiled) fish, game and roasts of all sorts.

       Serves 8

      2 celeriac roots, peeled, quartered and very thinly sliced

      1 large onion, peeled, halved and very finely sliced

      Salt, freshly ground black pepper and nutmeg (DF) margarine

      1 plump clove of garlic, peeled and crushed

      A few thyme leaves

      300ml/10fl oz/1¼ cups of (GF) vegetable stock (bouillon)

      Cayenne pepper

      Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas mark 4

      Layer the celeriac with the onion in an ovenproof dish, sprinkling each layer with salt, pepper and nutmeg, and dotting with margarine, garlic and thyme leaves. Continue until all of the celeriac and onion have been used up.

      Pour the stock (bouillon) over and sprinkle cayenne pepper over the top.

      Bake in the oven until crispy on top and soft all the way through, about 2 hours.

      Check occasionally – if it looks as though it is starting to dry out add a little more stock.

      Serve the Celeriac Dauphinoise piping hot.

      Roast Squash, Chestnuts and Sweet Potatoes

       This is a robust accompaniment to roast turkey, pheasant or grouse, especially at Christmas time. It is also unusual and delicious with roast pork or wild boar.

       Serves 6–8

      1 butternut squash, peeled, halved and seeded

      1kg/2.2lb/7 cups of sweet potatoes, peeled (1.5kg/3.3lb for 8 people or more)

      200ml/7fl oz/¾ cup of olive oil

      Salt and freshly ground black pepper

      A little sprinkling of grated cloves and nutmeg
