1.    Pass the berries through a food mill fitted with a fine disk or force them through a through a fine sieve, mashing with a wooden spoon, into a medium bowl. You’ll have about 1/2 cup raspberry puree; set it aside and discard the contents of the strainer.
2.
Put the chopped chocolate in a medium bowl.
3.
In a small saucepan, heat the cream, just until boiling.
4.
Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate; whisk to blend.
5.
Stir in the raspberry puree and the salt.
6.
Refrigerate the mixture until completely chilled, about 1 hour.
7.
Pour the cocoa powder onto a plate.
8.
With a melon-baller or spoon, scoop the chocolate-raspberry mixture and shape it into 1-inch balls.
9.
If the truffles are very soft, put them on a baking sheet and refrigerate briefly to firm.
10.
Roll the shaped truffles in the cocoa, coating them thoroughly.
11.
If sealed and refrigerated, these truffles will keep for about 1 week.

Mix all the ingredients (except the steaks!) in a bowl. Turn the mixture out onto a sheet of greaseproof paper and roll into a sausage shape. (You could use cling film if you wish instead.) Chill the butter mixture for at least one hour. Remove just before serving on top of the steak, and cut into rounds.

Cook the steaks to your liking and leave to rest for 2-3 minutes to allow the juices to run back into the meat.

Just before serving, place a couple of rounds/discs of mustard butter on top of the steaks and serve with chips (fries) and grilled tomatoes or fresh salad leaves.

1.    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2.    To make the dough cut 1/2 cup butter into 1 cup flour using a knife or pastry blender. Add water as needed and mix until crumbly, leaving pea sized chunks. On a floured surface roll the dough out to 3 or 4 inches in width. Place on a rectangular cookie sheet.
3.    In a small saucepan over high heat, bring 1 cup water and 1/2 cup butter to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in flour; mix until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in 1 teaspoon almond extract. Spread over dough.
4.    Bake in preheated oven for 55 to 60 minutes. The pastry will fall a little as it cools.
5.    Meanwhile, combine confectioners’ sugar, cream, 1 tablespoon butter and 1 teaspoon almond extract. Spread over pastry as soon as it’s removed from the oven.

n a skillet, melt 2 Tbsp butter, heating until melted and just starting to brown. Add onion to skillet, saute until onion is golden.

Mash potatoes.

To the bread crumbs, add 2 Tbsp milk to moisten.

In a large bowl, combine beef, pork, egg. Add onion, mashed potatoes, and moistened breadcrumbs. Add spices (salt, pepper, allspice). Add remaining milk a little at a time; stop before the mixture gets gloppy. If the meat mixture gets too gooey to form nice, neat meatballs, add a more breadcrumbs.

Use a pair of spoons rinsed in water and shape the meat mixture into small round balls.

In a large skillet, heat remaining butter over medium heat. Add meatballs to skillet, being careful not to crowd the pan. Shake periodically so that the meatballs don’t develop flat spots. Cook until meatballs are done through.
