For sure, some of the foods served at Hogwarts may not always be to everyone's liking but many are. These British recipes all appear in the Harry Potter books and films and are guaranteed to thrill children and adults alike.School Dinner FoodPhoto © istock.comMany of Harry's favorites are classic British school dinner dishes; hearty food to fill rumbling tummies. Hefty pies, stews and casseroles make great dishes for everyone to dip into. Cook large portions and put them on the table so everyone can help themselves. Easy.A Shepherd's Pie (lamb) or a Cottage Pie (beef) are perfect foods for large numbers. They are quick and easy to make plus as it is mainly ground meat and mashed potatoes is also cheap, so you can make lots - good dishes after a cold night of Trick and Treating.Stews and casseroles are also warm and filling. Here's a collection of casserole recipes that Harry and his chums would certainly enjoy. Watch my video on making Shepherd's Pie Small BitesPhoto © istockYorkshire Puddings feature frequently in the Harry Potter books and films and are a perfect party food. Rather than make dinner size portions in 12-hole muffin tins make tiny, bite sized puddings in mini muffin pans. Cooked Yorkshire Puddings make great savory or sweet treats. Pop chunks of cooked sausages into each pudding for bite-sized " Toad in the Holes " or a blob of strawberry jam for the sweet-toothed. Another food loved by Hogwarts pupils are Cornish Pasties. Adapt the recipe to make mini sized pasties to eat at the party by shaping the pastry into 8 instead of 4.

A Spotted Dick, a Treacle Tart or a Rhubarb Crumble will all do the trick. Spotted Dick isn't the easiest pudding to make but as it very filling can be cut into at least 12 slices - even Dudley Dursley couldn't eat more than one slice.If stodgy puddings are too much then a tray of warm Rock Cakes are quick and easy to make as is Parkin is the British form of gingerbread. Made in advance it creates a, sticky, sweet ginger cake which can be eaten with the fingers or warmed with a large dollop of Harry's favourite custard sauce on top.Even simpler to make is an Easy English Trifle or dish of splodgy Eton Mess.Sweets and CandiesPhoto © istock.comNo party would be complete with out a selection of Harry's favorite sweets and candies. Marshmallows, Fudge, and Nut Brittle, and my favorite Sticky Treacle Toffee which will keep jaws clamped firmly shut for at least five minutes chewing on this delicious treat. All the sweets and candy recipes are very easy to make so no excuse to not make lots.Harry Potter Fun Stuff and Turn Your Home into HogwartsPhoto © StockXpertThe drink Butterbeer pops up all over the Harry Potter books, About.com's Guide to Home Cooking, Peggy Trowbridge Filippone, has developed this yummy recipe for a non-alcoholic version for kids and adults alike.

Occasionally the menu contains foods that Harry and friends are not quite so keen on. Tripe which is the lining of a cows stomach. Some people love it? Sir de Mimsy-Porpington may have thought offering maggoty Haggis to guests at his party, but it really is better eaten without the maggots. I recommend you only make these dishes if you want to scare people away or to make sure they never eat British food again!Harry Potter Goodies· Harry Potter - Favorite Harry Potter Recipes· Harry Potter Fun - Enjoy Some Harry Potter Fun· The Best Harry Potter ToysMore Harry Potter Stuff· Harry Potter Party - Birthday Cupcakes - Harry Potter Party Ideas· How-to Harry Potter Costumes· Harry PotterSuggested Reading· Harry Potter Fun - Enjoy Some Harry Potter Fun· Harry Potter Jokes - The 13 Funniest Harry Potter Comedy Videos OnlineRelated Articles· Harry Potter Halloween Party - Harry Potter Party - Halloween Recipes· Harry Potter - Favorite Harry Potter Recipes- Harry Potter Party· A Harry Potter Halloween Party· A Harry Potter Party for Halloween· Harry Potter Cookbook - The Unofficial Harry Potter CookbookElaine LemmBritish & Irish Food GuideSign up for My NewsletterHeadlinesForumRelated Searches harry potter books classic dishes dinner dishes british recipes casserole recipes s pieExplore British & Irish FoodMust Reads· Mother's Day and Mother's Day Recipes· Easter and Top 10 Easter Recipes· Asparagus Recipes· 5 Ways with Yorkshire Puddings· St 's Day RecipesMost Popular· St Day Recipes· Easy Yorkshire Pudding Recipe· Flapjack Recipe· Sausage and Mash· St 's RecipesSee More About:· halloween· halloween recipes· harry potterBy Category· A - Z Recipe Index· Intro-British & Irish Food· Traditional British Recipes· Traditional Irish Recipes· Drinks and Spirits· Food Traditions· Festive Cooking· Cooking Tutorials· Glossary and FAQ's · Recommendations & Top Tips· Eating Out - Britain· Eating Out - IrelandBritish & Irish Food1.
