Nigella's Recipes | Nigella Lawson
WEBRecipes by Nigella Lawson. This is, quite simply, a pie filled with potatoes, onion and butter; it has flaky pastry on the base, sides and top, and given the simplicity of its contents, a generous amount of salt and pepper.
Spaghetti Carbonara | Nigella's Recipes | Nigella Lawson
WEBThis is my favourite — along with all my other favourites. I love the buttery, eggy creaminess of the sauce, saltily-spiked with hot-cubed bacon: it’s comforting, but not in a sofa-bound kind of way. It feels like proper dinner, only it takes hardly any time to cook. This is my most regular dinner for two: I keep, at all times, the wherewithal to make it in the house. For US cup measures ...
Devilled Eggs | Nigella's Recipes | Nigella Lawson
WEBI cannot begin to tell you how good these are. There’s not much that can get me squeezing a fancy-nozzled icing bag, but I can’t get enough of these — and nor can those I make them for. Yes, they are retro, but they are no culinary exercise in irony. And while they are a bit fiddly to make, they’re not hard, and they are immensely rewarding. In order to help the yolk keep centred as ...
Victoria Sponge | Nigella's Recipes | Nigella Lawson
WEBA Victoria Sponge is one of the simplest cakes there is and quite one of the best. Plain, airy cakes, sandwiched with sweet jam and smooth, whipped cream: it is no wonder that it has been such a favourite through the generations. My version tinkers only a little with the traditional model: I use a mixture of flour and cornflour/cornstarch in the sponge, which creates cakes that are ...

Coffee and Walnut Layer Cake | Nigella's Recipes | Nigella Lawson
WEBNeither of my grandmothers, nor indeed my mother, was a baker but this cake is nonetheless the cake of my childhood. When I was little, I used to make it for my younger sister's birthday every year, beating away vigorously with my bowl and wooden spoon. This, however, is a simplified version: everything just goes into the processor. the cake I made and ate when young was more milky coffee than ...
My Mother-In-Law's Madeira Cake | Nigella's Recipes | Nigella …
WEBI don't know if I ever ate Madeira cake as a child, but just the sight of this golden-yellow loaf with its long crack down the middle makes me feel satisfactorily nostalgic. This recipe, given to me by my mother-in-law Carrie, is the best of any version I've tried. It's just one of those plain cakes you think you can't see the point of, until …
Basque Burnt Cheesecake With Liquorice Sauce - Nigella.com
WEBHeat the oven to 200℃/180℃ Fan/400°F. Get out a 20cm/8-inch springform tin and a roll of baking parchment. Unfurl a long piece from the roll, and when it looks like you’ve got enough to line the tin with an overhang of 5–7cm/2-3in, tear it off and press it into the tin, and down into the edges at the bottom.
