Delia's Summer Lunch or Supper for 8

Because of the vagaries of the British summer, this menu has been designed with sun or rain in mind.

If you find the weather’s not that good, it helps to serve a hot watercress soup and, as the main course is served cold, you could also serve the potato salad warm. On the other hand, if it’s a hot day the soup can be served cold, in chilled bowls with ice cubes. MA014 Gooseberry Cr Frai T1
There is nothing, but nothing quite like serving a whole salmon on a summer’s day. Because the salmon is cooked slowly in kitchen foil, with bone, skin and head intact, the flavour will be far superior to cooking it any other way.
