Favourite festive recipes

Celebrate with us, Halen Môn style. These are a few of the recipes that make it to our table over the Christmas season, all perfectly seasoned crowd pleasers. 

Christmas morning buns

Light and fluffy buns, inspired by the classic Chelsea bun. These gently spiced buns, studded with fruit, make the perfect Christmas morning breakfast. They are a great way to use up leftover mincemeat or even convert a mince-pie-hater to the joys of mincemeat with a fresh, sticky bun instead. Our Salted Caramel Spread glaze adds a delicious salty edge to the sweetness of these morning buns too.

Very crispy roast potatoes

Any roast worth its salt counts roast potatoes as an essential component, and this is our favourite way to make them. As with our Perfect Oven Chips recipe, we soak the potatoes first to draw our excess starch and encourage those crisp edges that we all know and love. Here, we roast a lemon alongside, which goes beautifully with the potatoes as it caramelises and turns jammy in the oven.

Lamb chops with black garlic roasted squash

A clever use of Black Garlic Ketchup in Sam’s Lomas recipe, which uses Welsh lamb for a sophisticated dinner.

Smoked galette of stilton, squash + thyme

This wonderfully savoury galette is perfect for a celebratory supper and comes together much quicker than you might think. A wonderful vegetarian tart that everyone will want a slice of.

Roasted grape + ricotta crostini

Roasted grapes with a dash of vinegar and our Pure Sea Salt Smoked over Oak with creamy ricotta and crispy sage. Serve them on little crostini. Sweet, sour, salty and smoky – they’ve got it all going on. (Serve with napkins, this one is messy!)

 

Seville orange chocolate tart

This is a very indulgent no-bake chocolate tart, making it an easy Christmas dessert that will still impress. The salted dark chocolate pecan and biscuit base is filled with rich chocolate and Seville orange ganache. Seville oranges are sharp and bitter, beautifully balancing the sweetness of the chocolate. Serve with our Salted Caramel for extra deliciousness.

Bloody Mary devilled eggs

 

Devilled eggs are having a comeback in the UK, and this Halen Môn twist makes us glad that they are. Our Popeth seasoning adds a delicious crunch but toasted seeds and a generous pinch of our salt would also work very nicely.

Frozen blood orange Margarita

An absolutely excellent cocktail to create some magic even on those darkest of winter days – deliciously balanced and a very pleasing colour.

The key to a good cocktail, as is the key to much good food, is to keep tasting and adjusting.
