Cocktail party

Some purists believe there is no room for beans, but we think they add a rich, earthy flavour.

All the crisp and crunch of the fried-pasta snack, with minimal fuss.

We've brightened up the haloumi with the crunch of zucchini and a fresh, vibrant mint dressing.

Cross baba ghanoush with muhammara, and the result is this smoky dip that you'll proudly take to your next party.

For easy summer sipping.

This could very well be your new favourite dip.

Get the party started with this tickled-pink drink.

Yoghurt dip with sesame seeds, pepitas, cumin, caraway and mint recipe - Spoon yoghurt into a muslin-lined sieve over a bowl, cover and refrigerate until whey drains and yoghurt thickens slightly (1-2 hours). Stir in garlic and season to taste.

We're saying cheers to a classic with this tweak of the unbeatable prawn cocktail. Thinly mandolined rockmelon adds a sweet touch, which you can always offset with as little or as much Tabasco as you'd like.
