Summer fruit bake recipe. Readers' recipe swap: nostalgia. Thanks to everyone who sent in family recipes this week – beloved biscuits, great-nan's pickled shallots (currently maturing below the sink) and the kind of simple soup that's so much more than the sum of its humble parts. I loved them all. Indeed, spaghetti and fried eggs might well become a bit of a regular treat when the fridge is bare, but in the end, I was powerless before the magic of Carolyn George's saucy American pudding. It's a delicious dessert and children's entertainer in onesuper-sweet package – adults might well want to add a little tangy creme fraiche ... but then again … The winning recipe: fudge brownie pudding This was a favourite when I was a child growing up in the US in the 1950s.

It was a wickedly delicious science lesson – in that the sauce ended up on the bottom but had started on the top.

Readers' recipe swap: Poached | Felicity Cloake. Lots of mouthwatering poached egg pictures were submitted this week, but the recipes were rather more ambitious. Far Eastern cooks know that slow simmering gives gorgeously tender results, and finally, thanks to Rachel Kelly, I now know the secret of melt‑in‑the-mouth stir-fried meat. Anyone with little imaginations to feed should try Mary-Anne Boermans' spaghetti monsters – but they'll love helping out with the magical floating islands in my winning recipe, too.

Sweet, easy and the colour of a fiery sunset, it's the perfect summer dessert. The winning recipe: Islands in the sun My take on a classic French dessert.

Blueberry recipes | Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall. It's fair to say that the term "health nut" is unlikely ever to be applied to me, but I like to think I generally balance the books when it comes to the profit and loss of the good and the greedy.

I don't obsess over food groups, or count calories, or tot up my five a day. I do, however, sometimes find myself saying, "That's probably enough cheese/ice-cream/cake for now. Or at least until elevenses. " I think I more or less pull off the nutritional balancing act because I'm as likely to pile into something that's good for me as I am into something that's a tad indulgent. Provided, of course, I can get excited about its taste. But, for me, the perfect coincidence of the delicious and the nutritious is our summer berries. I won't lecture you on vitamin C, antioxidants and fibre – blueberries are one of those foods you only have to taste to know that they're doing you good. I'm hoping they'll get cheaper, too, because right now this is one pricey little berry.
