All hail the pea and ham soup. There’s something about that marriage of pea and pig that makes it the most-wanted winter recipe for Gourmet Traveller readers and cooks. Our version featured a double dose of peas in fresh and dried form, turning the soup a vibrant green hue.
Winter means plenty of inside hibernation, and with it, time – luxurious time! – to spend in the kitchen. That likely explains why our how-to guides on making roti canai and lemon tarts from scratch also featured.
Soups, stews and curries – be it spiced chicken soups, cassoluets or Massaman beef curries – also made the list. Of course, puddings are also popular this time of year, including our lemon delcious pudding and Curtis Stone’s Dutch baby with clotted cream.
