My mum has been making this meringue roulade for as long as I can remember, it's a much loved dessert during the Spring and Summer months and perfect for entertaining a crowd. It looks impressive and tricky but is actually quite simple. A bit of practice does go in to perfecting the rolling technique. For this recipe I've included the lemon curd from a previous post, available on my feed, and it adds a lovely tart flavour to cut through the sweetness of the meringue.

This is my famous recipe or honey-glazed rainbow carrots with ricotta, pistachio, chilli & orange. As you can imagine, it’s big on flavour. This elevates any roast dinner or family-style get-together. Roasting the vegetables this way brings out a lovely level of sweetness and a natural nuttiness and the accompaniments hit every flavour mark.

A fresh summer treat, nectarines are one of my favourite stone fruits. This dessert has the elements of a refreshing mint julep, with the citrus fruit bringing a nice balance to the sweetness of the sugar.
