My favourite Easter recipes!

Hello Reader

Easter always feels like the true turning point of the year, with lighter evenings, brighter flavours, and a table that invites everyone to linger a little longer.

Planning your Easter menu? These recipes hit that sweet spot: impressive enough to feel celebratory, but approachable enough that you'll actually enjoy the process.

Whether you're honouring tradition or reimagining it entirely, these dinner ideas prove that Easter cooking should feel joyful, not stressful and festive without the fuss.

Easter Main Courses

👉 Roast Leg of Lamb with Mint Sauce - A traditional main course for Easter, and perfectly complemented by homemade mint sauce.

👉 Maple Bourbon Glazed Ham - Slathered with a deep amber maple, mustard, whisky syrup and then roasted to caramelised perfection.

Easter Side Dishes

👉 Scalloped Potatoes with Caramelised Shallots - An instant upgrade on traditional scalloped potatoes, and the perfect side for any Easter table.

👉 Fresh Green Bean Casserole - Made entirely from scratch, with fresh green beans in a delicious mushroom cream sauce, baked with seasoned herbs and garlic Parmesan breadcrumbs.
