creamy tomato soup recipe

There’s nothing quite like a bowl of creamy tomato and basil soup to bring comfort on a chilly day. Sweet carrots, fragrant basil, and a hint of chilli blend with rich tomatoes and a splash of cream to create a velvety, flavour-packed dish. Served with crusty bread or crunchy croutons, it’s simple, nourishing, and always a crowd-pleaser - whether you’re making it for a quick family supper or a big batch to tuck away in the freezer.

Madhu’s Masala Lamb

This rich lamb curry is slow-cooked with layers of flavour that build from the very start — caramelised onions, ginger, garlic and warming spices. The meat is coated in a thick, fragrant sauce that deepens as it simmers, leaving the lamb tender and full of warmth. Finished with a scatter of fresh coriander, it’s the kind of dish best enjoyed gathered round the table with chapatis or a bowl of pilau rice, perfect for sharing on a Sunday or whenever comfort is needed.

Mini pumpkin pie

There’s nothing quite like the mix of pumpkin and spice to bring a bit of warmth and comfort. These little tartlets have a crisp pastry base and a smooth, custardy filling flavoured with cream, nutmeg and cinnamon. They bake gently until they just hold together with a soft wobble in the middle, then are best served with a spoonful of thick cream on top. Simple, cosy and just right for sharing.

We recently caught up with three wonderful chefs, Ryan Thompson, Poonam Ball and Sean Da Silva, who opened up their kitchens to share favourite family-friendly recipes you can easily recreate at home. Perfect for bringing a little taste of The Grove to your table.
