When it comes to strange names for culinary dishes, the English can boast a few. Pan Haggerty is a traditional Northumbrian dish of potatoes and onions flavoured with cheese. But perhaps it's Bubble & Squeak that takes your fancy? A traditional breakfast dish, it gets its name from the cabbage which makes bubbling and squeaking sounds during cooking.

With a harvest of fresh beans, peas, carrots and courgettes you have all the ingredients to make a rich terrine of vegetables that looks great too. It could be that an asparagus and pecorino risotto or a roast squash salad with feta cheese and toasted seeds is most tempting, but then again some of the most popular pub foods in England at the moment are a good vegetarian curry or mac 'n' cheese.

Then there is always the delicious Cumbrian Ham produced by the Woodall family or even some beetroot salad with warm black pudding a product synonymous with Lancashire cuisine.

As an island surrounded by the sea, it's no wonder that fish have always played a major part of the English diet. Way back in the 18th century the most popular fish dishes in London were jellied eels and oysters while on the south coast of Kent sole were so prolific that they became known as Dover sole, and along the Northumberland coast smoke houses were built to produce delicious kippers. In fact, the 19th century novelist Arnold Bennett had a smoked haddock omelette created for him by the chef of the Savoy Hotel. English rivers are famous for producing hours of marvellous salmon and trout fishing; head to the Lake District to find dishes of salmon or the Avon river in Hampshire for trout.
