Good old-fashioned mint jelly is easy to make and especially useful if you have the herb growing rampant in the garden. Try using different mint varieties such as peppermint, spearmint or apple mint. You don't need to add food colouring but it adds to the effect. It's perfect with crumbed cutlets or a lamb roast. Herbs are easy to grow, even if you only have room for a few pots on a windowsill.
