The most popular recipes of spring

During early spring, as Australia's major cities battled the last months of lockdown, GT readers put bread-making and baking on the top of the to-do lists. The result? Roti canai, homemade crumpets and DIY flatbread were hot on readers' recipe radars.

As the weather warmed up, light and bright spring-friendly salads were in high demand – see the asparagus salad with walnuts and parmesan, or the beetroot number with lentils and feta. Plus, desserts of the fruity kind, in the form of lemon tarts, passionfruit and pineapple drizzle cakes, and Neil Perry's blueberry cheesecake. Cut us another slice.
