CUMBERLAND SAUCE

Steps:

• First, thinly pare off the zest of both the lemon and the orange, using a potato peeler, then cut them into very small strips ½ inch (1 cm) long and as thin as possible. Boil them in water for 5 minutes to extract any bitterness, then drain well. Now place the redcurrant jelly in a saucepan with the port and melt, whisking them together over a low heat for about 5 or 10 minutes. The redcurrant jelly won't melt completely, so it's best to sieve it afterwards to get rid of any obstinate little globules. In a serving bowl, mix the mustard and ginger with the juice of half the lemon until smooth, then add the juice of the whole orange, the port and redcurrant mixture, and finally the strips of lemon and orange zest. Mix well and the sauce is ready to use. Cumberland sauce stores well in a screw-top jar in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

QUICK SAUSAGE MEATBALLS WITH A TOMATO AND BASIL SAUCE, SPAGHETTI AND SWEET RAW PEAS

Steps:

• Heat a large saucepan and add a few glugs of olive oil. Snip the sausages apart, then squeeze and pinch the meat out of the skins so that you get little meatball shapes - don't make them too big or they will take too long to cook. Try to get at least 3 balls out of each sausage. Don't worry about rolling them into perfect balls and making them look all fancy - rough and rustic is good! Put them into your pan. Keep frying and turning the meatballs until they're golden brown and cooked through.
• Meanwhile, put the spaghetti into a large pan of salted boiling water and cook according to the package instructions until al dente.
• To make your tomato sauce, heat a separate pan and pour in some olive oil. Add the garlic and the chopped basil stalks and move them around the pan for a couple of minutes. Put some small basil leaves aside for later, and sprinkle the rest into the pan. Add the tomatoes and season carefully with salt and pepper, to taste. Bring to a simmer, break up your tomatoes a bit more with a spoon and add a swig of balsamic vinegar - it's lovely for adding sweetness to the sauce.
• Add the herbs to the pan of sausage meatballs, tossing everything in all the lovely flavors. Cook for around 30 seconds. When your spaghetti is cooked, drain it and divide the pasta and meatballs between 4 bowls. Spoon over the tomato sauce. Sprinkle over the reserved basil leaves and serve with a handful of fresh peas per person in the middle of the table, so that everyone can have a go at shelling their own, and a little Parmesan for grating or shaving over the top.

JAPANESE ROLLED PORK WITH PLUMS, CORIANDER, SOY SAUCE AND SPRING ONIONS

Steps:

• Wash the plums, then run a knife around them, twist them and remove the stones. Cut the halves into 1/2-inch (1 centimeter) dice. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the star anise, ginger, and garlic for 1 minute. Add the plums and sugar with a couple of tablespoons of water, place a lid on, and simmer slowly for about 20 minutes until chunky and pulpy. Allow to cool down in the refrigerator. Take your pork and trim off all the fat and sinews so that you are left with completely lean eye of meat. Cut into 1/4-inch (.5 centimeter) thick slices and 1 by 1 bash the slices between 2 pieces of plastic wrap, using something flat and heavy like the base of a heavy pan, a meat hammer or a cleaver. Try to retain the pork's shape. When each piece is around the thickness of 2 beer mats, carefully peel the meat away form the plastic wrap in 1 piece. Do this with all the meat and lay it out on a tray. Season the plum sauce, then stir in half the coriander. Smear 1 tablespoon of your sauce in the middle of each slice of pork. Spread out slightly so that the sauce covers about 3/4 of each slice and roll each one up like a Swiss roll. Put the rolls into a bamboo steamer (if you have one) or a normal steamer, or even use a colander covered in tin-foil. Place the steamer over simmering water and steam for 10 to 15 minutes until the meat is just cooked. Remove from the steamer and serve the pork rolls on a bed of finely sliced spring onion, sprinkled with the rest of the coriander and doused with lots of soy sauce.;
