ART OF FRIDAY NIGHT DINNER (HB)

Make Friday the best night of the week, whether you’re planning to spend the evening on the sofa, have your closest friend over or host the masses. Over a hundred fail-safe crowd- (and self-) pleasing recipes include: frozen jalapeno margaritas; baked potato with hot smoked salmon, soured cream and pickled radishes; bucatini with mushroom cream and crispy sage; sausages with lemony, caraway cabbage and apples; roast chicken with chicken juice rice and orange and onion salad; ginger, prune and PX cake with cardamom custard.
