British recipes

Traditional British dishes that have stood the test of time and linger in our thoughts when we’re far away. Take mouthwatering roast chicken, creamy fish pie and a hearty beef Wellington, as gold star examples of comforting classics to enjoy with loved ones on the weekend or special occasions. No collection would be complete without teatime fancies, such as Victoria sponge and treacle sponge.
