We shall be celebrating the phenomenal occasion of Queen Elizabeth II's 70 years on the throne with a four-day bank holiday weekend this June.
Opies have some happy and glorious ways to celebrate the Platinum Jubilee with a right royal line-up of recipes. Here are their impeccable ideas for a neighbourhood knees-up, street party shindig or family jamboree.
P.S. Don't forget the bunting!
For savoury tastes ...
Mini Coronation Chicken Pies with Pickled Walnut Chutney
When it comes to Royal celebrations, there's nothing with greater heritage than Coronation Chicken. Originally created in 1953 for the Queen's coronation, it was believed to be inspired by Jubilee Chicken created for George V's silver jubilee in 1935. Opies have cleverly blended this heritage recipe with a party favourite - a mini pie!
