EASTERN FEASTS - Blackberry and Buttermilk Tart / White Bean & Barley Salad with Beetroot & Yoghurt Dressing / Walnuts
'Feasts' (Mitchell Beazley, stg£20), a delightful new cookery book on the food of central and eastern Europe, has arrived on my desk and, given the number of people now living in Ireland who are native to those regions and - perhaps more surprisingly - the amount of ingredients that we share, it should find a niche here.

Spicy Lamb Jalfrezi / Belle Isle Blackberry Mousse / Garam Masala
Diwali, the five-day Indian Festival of Lights, begins today. This special celebration of togetherness marks the start of the Hindu New Year and is one of the largest festivals of its kind in India and amongst Indian people all over the world. The word Diwali means 'Group of Light' and it takes place in autumn each year for five days.

Warm Cashel mussels with garlic, tomato and chilli / Peach and Strawberry Parfait / Mussels
Like many other concerned consumers, I've been spending a lot of time reading the small print on labels recently - and finding that the information lurking there is often seriously depressing. Vacuum-packed crabmeat sold under a respected Dublin brand name, for example, seemed a very handy item to have in the fridge for quick summer salads and starters - until I noticed that the crab actually came from Peru. Is this madness or what?
