Pizza cones
Pizza, in the form of a cone, is officially a thing? What could be better than a pizza-dough cone filled with melty cheese and your favourite toppings (or, now, fillings)? We can report that, although a little unorthodox, pizza cones are a trend that is hard to beat – try making these a snack for the kids or for your next drinks party… they are ideal to eat with a glass of red wine in your other hand!

Old-fashioned English raised pork and chicken pie
There’s not really any way around this – this traditional pie takes a while to prepare; although there’s nothing difficult about it and most of the time it takes to make isn’t active prepping, but rather baking and cooling time. Make this when you have a few hours for leisurely pottering in your kitchen, and you’re in the mood for making something rewarding. I will say that the time spent is worth the final result!
