How to make a Celery and Carrot Soup (Vegan friendly)

 This celery and carrot soup only came about on account of my late brother calling in one night around 9pm as he was passing. He hadn't had chance to get his tea, and when I looked in the fridge all we had was about three sticks of celery and a few carrots. The shopping was due to be delivered the next morning! So I just threw together a potato, an onion, the celery and the carrot, some oxo vegetable stock, plus some cornflour and ground black pepper and hoped for the best. When he tried it he said this is really good and finished up eating the whole panful. Not before I got a chance to have a quick taste though! And for an accidental soup it really does taste delicious, possibly one of the best. Ask your guests to see if they can guess what is in it - I bet you they can't and neither could he!

How to make Aubergine Parmigiana

 This is one of the specials recipes. You have to make it with the fresh pasta sauce, and aubergines done this way taste divine. Made up of three cheeses, cheddar, mozzarella and vegetarian hard cheese (the veg version of Parmesan), aubergines gently fried in olive oil and drained and the fresh pasta sauce, when it is baked it smells amazing. Served with a little garlic bread and a side salad this is a winner with the guests, and my daughter loves it!! As does mum and me.....

How to make Perfect Irish Coffee with Irish Whisky, Demerara Sugar, Instant Coffee and Squirty Cream

 Christmas isn't complete without Irish coffee, and you have to use proper Irish whisky as it has a mellow taste unlike Scottish. We used Nescafe because it's the best. I don't drink anything else! We also used squirty cream but you can use real cream if you want to as that's the correct way to do it! The squirty cream worked well though here too. These were served in Irish coffee style glasses too. Available here
