Delia's menu for March
Root vegetables are still good at this time of year, so what better to use in this month's starter? Then, for the main course, a true classic that's in need of a revival and, for dessert, a chocolate treat!
Starter
Slow-cooked Root Vegetable Soup
Something happens to vegetables when they're cooked very slowly for a long time: their flavour becomes mellow but at the same time more intense, and your kitchen is filled with aromas of goodness. This soup is also completely fat-free.
Main course
Coq au Vin
This makes a splendid dinner-party dish.I like to give this dish half its cooking time the day before, let it cool, then refrigerate and give it the other half of the cooking time before serving.
Dessert
Chocolate Creme Brulees
Crème brûlée is truly a great British classic that easily lends itself to variations like this one – a smooth, velvety chocolate custard topped with a very crunchy caramel.
