Delia's menu for November

Warming comfort food is the order of the day this month, which is why this menu for 6 is so appealing: chicken liver pate, luxury fish pie and chocolate rum souffle.

Starter

Chicken Liver Pate with Brandy, with Sweet-and-Sour Red Onion Salad - recipe cost £3.34 (56p each)

Chicken Liver Pate with Brandy, with Sweet-and-Sour Red Onion Salad - recipe cost £3.34 (56p each)

This is smooth and velvety and also works well with duck livers, if you can get them. The salad helps to cut through the richness. I like to serve this with toasted multi-grain bread.

Main course

Luxury Smoked-fish Pie

Luxury Smoked-fish Pie

I first introduced this in 1978, but I've changed it into less of a family supper dish and into something more suitable for entertaining. Serve it with some sprigs of watercress for garnish, and I always think fish pie is lovely with fresh shelled peas.

Dessert

Hot Chocolate Rum Soufflé with Chocolate Sauce

Hot Chocolate Rum Soufflé with Chocolate Sauce

This is very light and chocolatey, and made even more wonderful by the addition of cream. It is also reasonably well behaved and though it may shrink a little, it won't collapse.
