Savoury recipes from Mary Berry
Mary Berry’s vegetable and lentil cottage pie
This vegetarian spin on the comforting cottage pie is just as satisfying as the meaty version and brilliant if you're wanting the family to cut down on their meat consumption. You can make the filling ahead and chill it in its dish, which will give a really stable base for the mash; bake it for 5–10 minutes longer.
Roasted sausage and potato supper by Mary Berry
We're a huge fan of any dish that cuts down on the washing up, so this simple one dish dinner is sure to become a family favourite as it is so quick and easy to put together. If you’re making this for young children, you can replace the wine with stock, if you prefer. The choice of sausage is up to you - Mary has used British sausage for this recipe (we love leek and sage), but veggie sausages would also work fine.
Chicken tagine recipe By Mary Berry
Want your kids to try something a little different? The dried fruit in this dish gives it a delicious sweetness which your little ones might like, and it tastes even better if you cook ahead and then reheat. Carry on the Moroccan theme and serve with couscous which is also great for any younger babies who might be weaning.

Ginger And Chocolate Cake Recipe From Mary Berry
Mixing chocolate and a hint of ginger together creates an intriguing blend of flavours in this moist, rich cake, and with the nausea-easing flavours of ginger, we think this just might be our new favourite cake to make when expecting (although it tastes amazing when you're a mum, too!)
Mary Berry’s malted chocolate cake
This chocolate cake is the perfect family treat, and a real crowd-pleaser if you're hosting a party or get-together. The malt extract gives a lovely creaminess to the sponge, while the malted chocolate flavour is echoed in the cake’s topping.
