    Cooking for a gathering of friends is extremely easy with one of our dual fuel range cookers. They have more hobs and cooking areas than a standard cooker which means less stress!

    This menu is a lighter take on the traditional rich dinner party feasts. The quick and simple starter is followed by a flavourful main that makes the most of locally sourced salad ingredients and a criminally underused cut of beef. The whole meal is finished off with a crisp, fruity dessert: a delicious pavlova. The key to making this popular dessert is to leave it to cool in the oven without opening the door. With one of our 100cm range cookers, this is incredibly easy. Multiple ovens mean you won’t have to disturb your wonderfully crisp creation as you can use a different oven for other dishes you’re cooking at the same time.
