Jack Monroe's Ultimate Mother's Day Menu

With this Ultimate Mother's Day Menu, Jack Monroe shows how easy it is to create a truly special celebratory meal without spending a fortune.

Starter: Love Soup

Pure comfort in a (heart-shaped) bowl, this warming carrot, onion and ginger soup is the perfect way to start your special meal.

Main: Earthy Red Wine and Mushroom Risotto

This hearty risotto is packed with bags of flavour and is perfect served with green vegetables on the side.

Dessert: Paddington Bear Sponge Puddings

These cute little marmalade sponge puddings are a gorgeously nostalgic way to end your Mother's Day meal. Serve with lashings of custard.
