This delectable chocolate cookie, baked in the AGA Cast Aluminium Sauté Pan on the simmering plate, results in a gooey texture that is simply irresistible. For the last two years I’ve bought a pudding from Bertinet’s in Bath and they’ve gone down well with my family. The lamb was cooked with a little port and redcurrant jelly and the mash topping was a mixture of potato and celeriac. On reflection, I think breasts, whether of the pheasant or chicken variety, should not be cooked for very long, so my suggestion for adapting this recipe for the Aga would be only to cook it (in the simmering oven of course) for the initial 45 minutes. The gentle radiant heat of the AGA is perfect for vegan baking where traditional convection and fan ovens can produce a dry, crumbly texture.

Perfect for a meat free menu, this filling dish is a delicious main meal or part of a selection of dishes. What is more, I chose the recipe because it was a slow braise, which in my opinion ought to have ensured tender, succulent meat. I don’t think Mary would mind me saying that the recipes are a little old-fashioned now because this must be partly why she, her assistant, Lucy Young, and Aga have published a new, updated book.By using the Web site, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by the Terms and Conditions. In their defence, they “inherited” their Aga when moving into their house whereas I made a deliberate choice to become an Aga owner and cook and saw it as a kind of project. A delicious and vibrant Coconut, Tomato and Tamarind Whole Roasted Cauliflower, this recipe is a great vegan option. However, don't think you have to have an Aga as Mary gives instructions for cooking on gas or electric cookers too.

Mary Berry's technique is nothing if not confidence-building; and from advice regarding how to line roasting tins with foil. We will process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case within thirty (30) days of the day we confirm via e-mail that you are entitled to a refund for defective goods. Mary has incorporated her 'all-in-one' method of preparation into as many recipes as possible, so her recipes are faster to make than ever. I used this recipe by Diana Henry but was able to omit several stages and go straight from chilling the lined tart tin to adding the filling and baking it.Please remember it can take some time for your bank or credit card company to process and post the refund too. I still use this book a great deal but some of the recipes are somewhat dated and I suspect that nowadays new owners get her updated “The Complete Aga Cookbook”, which also includes the rice instructions. I am not very good on social media but we do have a Facebook page which gives you latest news and stories.
