Grilled mackerel with carrots and cucumber salad

Lamb kebabs with cucumber-feta relish
Food like this meaty, slightly sweet lamb tastes so much better cooked outside

Taramasalata and watercress pitta
This is really delicious and only takes a minute to make. Watercress is really healthy, while the taramasalata is high in unsaturated fats

Pea shoot and horseradish salad
For a delicious light lunch, serve this salad with blinis or potato farls (Irish potato bread)

Duke of Manchester punch
Blackberry-infused gin and summer berries are a winner

Melon Soup with Serrano Ham
The sweetness of the melon and slight saltiness of the ham compliment each other very well

Exotic lamb koftas with mango salad
Make and refrigerate the koftas the day before you cook these

Peking-Style Beef Fried Noodles
Chinese people refer to Peking as being ‘the real China’, and this recipe is certainly authentically Chinese

Antony Worrall Thompson's prawn and mango ceviche
The citrus-base of this popular marinated Latin American dish is sweetened with a delicious hint of mango

Chicken satays with sun-dried tomatoes
If using wooden skewers, presoak in cold water for at least 20 minutes before using as this prevents them burning during cooking
