Upcycle leftover Christmas ham into the perfect Boxing Day breakfast: ham crescents and serve them with a jammy spiced mango dipping sauce. They are great as a starter or finger food, if you’re planning to entertain beyond Christmas Day.

Ham & Cheese Croissant

A simple tart for an easy weekend supper for two, double the recipe if serving more people. We love the crunch of the puff pastry under the zingy flavour combination of zucchini, feta and dill. The whipped feta in this recipe comes from the very clever Hetty Mckinnon of Arthur Street Kitchen fame, it is sure to become a favourite and as Hetty says it also makes a great dip!
