Italian stuffed cabbage rolls
These parcels are comforting, nourishing and such a lovely way to make use of the humble savoy cabbage. Cooked in the oven with a simple tomato sauce and served with mashed potato or soft polenta, it is one of my favourite winter meals.
Gluten-fee red velvet and barberry muffins with cream cheese icing
These gluten-free red velvet muffins are moist and delicious. The beetroot adds a pink hue and plenty of natural, earthy sweetness, which I find so pleasing with the chocolate flavour and sour zing of the dried barberries. Lime-scented cream cheese icing and crunchy pecans complete the picture. If you like, skip roasting the beetroots and buy them pre-cooked in vacuum packs; I wouldn't use tinned beetroot, though.
