Nadia Sawalha cooks beef stew with herbs (parsley and chives) dumplings for a cold November day on The Alan Titchmarsh Show.

Nadia used a few star ingredients to flavour her stew including star anise, sticky matured dates and a Clementine.

Nadia’s recipe is available in her new book Fabulous Family Food: Easy, delicious recipes you’ll cook again and again, available from Amazon.
