Looking to recreate your favourite classic British dishes with a twist? Read on for our fresh spin on the nation’s favourite recipes.
Fish and Chips, scotch eggs and a traditional Sunday Roast – sometimes you can’t beat classic English grub. However, if you’re tired of rustling up the same old dishes, or are looking to try some new flavour combinations, then this article is for you!
We at The Artisan Food Company have put a fresh spin on some of the nation’s favourites. From party food to desserts, this guide has it all. Read on to spice up your next English soirée!
Smoked Salmon Scotch Eggs
Supposedly originating in 19th-century Yorkshire, this popular English snack is perfect for any occasion. Once made with fish paste, Scotch eggs are now formed of a boiled egg wrapped in sausage meat and coated in crispy breadcrumbs.
We’re all for a traditional combination, but if you’re looking to elevate your next batch of homemade Scotch eggs, then this recipe is for you. Smoked salmon and eggs are a well-loved breakfast pairing, and when combined in a Scotch egg with lemon and capers, that arguably takes them up a notch.
Get Creative with your English Roast
With the colder months quickly creeping up on us, there is nothing quite like a warming, hearty Sunday roast. If you’re looking to switch up your classic roast meat choices, then these unique flavour combinations may just be for you.
For a little extra heat, try basting your roast chicken in chipotle and red pepper paste!
Taking a leaf out of Nigella’s book, we at The Artisan Food Company are impartial to glazing our roast ham with ginger beer for a sticky and sweet finish, and a heartwarming flavour.

Cheese and Marmite Sausage Rolls
Here we are, throwing in a controversial recipe into the mix. If you’re a lover of Marmite, then you’ll definitely want to get your hands on these cheesy, salty English classics. Simply spread some Marmite on rolled-out puff pastry, sprinkle over cheddar cheese, add your sausage mix, and bake for the ultimate umami creation.
Cut into bite-size pieces for an English party favourite.
Arctic Roll
Teleport yourself back to the 80s with this nostalgic English dessert. Artic Rolls are a timeless favourite: vanilla ice cream wrapped in a light sponge cake with strawberry jam. For a spin on this retro sweet treat, why not try out one of our favourite flavour combinations? For a chocolate gâteaux-Artic roll mash-up, try a chocolate sponge with vanilla ice cream and kirsch-soaked black cherries.
Not a fan of fruity desserts? Try an Italian chocolate sponge cake with vanilla ice cream and top the roll with freshly piped meringue.
