As we embrace the last of the cold temperatures it’s a good idea to stock up on hearty foods that are full of flavour. Although filling and satisfying, most of our favourite February foods are healthy too – keeping you feel full while still sitting perfectly alongside your 2016 diet.
Root vegetables are a great option at this time of the year. Potatoes, celeriac, swede and turnips all taste great and add bulk to your dishes. Horseradish, chicory, shallots and black truffles also start to come into season making for some interesting vegetarian options too.
Kiwi fruit, passion fruit, clementines and pomegranate are just some of the February fruits you might like to experiment with. If you prefer the more traditional staples, why not opt for pears and bananas, which taste great the majority of the year.
From langoustine, oysters and scallops through to skate, lemon sole and mackerel, there’s plenty of choice when it comes to seasonal fish.
If you prefer a meat main why not opt for game? Guinea fowl, hare, mallard, partridge and venison are all highly desirable at this time of year.
From warming soups to delicious two-course meals, ideal for the family and those dinner dates, the Neff team have some great meal ideas for February…
If you’re looking for a yummy lunch or light dinner we recommend a homemade soup. Ideal for the chilly month of February, our Bake It Yourself soups are sure to warm you up…
Root vegetables are still in abundance in February – so why not put them to good use with this spicy soup? Carrots, onion, lentils and parsnips all come together to create a winter taste sensation. Best of all, all you need is a hand blender and your Neff hob.
Sweet Potato, Red Pepper & Coconut Soup
For those of you with a sweet tooth, this coconut soup is sure to be a winner. While warming it also has a real feel of summer with its fruity, coconut kick. Cook your veggies in your Neff Oven, and then heat the whole lot up on your hob for thick and creamy soup perfection.
With many of us still trying to keep an eye on our waistlines a healthy fish dish is a great choice…
This oily fish is full of nutrients, including all your essential fats. Enhance the flavour with herbs for a dish the whole family will love. To ensure the fish remains moist, rather than dry, cook at 160 degrees in your CircoTherm for the recommended time.
While it’s not quite time to get the berries and cream out, you can still enjoy a delicious cakey feast…
This yummy cake makes use of one of our favourite root vegetables and teams it with orange and mixed fruit for a great sweet treat. The nuts and seeds also provide those all-important healthy fats, turning something that one might consider sinful into something that’s almost healthy! Cook to perfection in your CircoTherm in 75 minutes.

AS SEEN ON GEORGE CLARKE’S BEAUTIFUL BUILDS: FROM DATED LAYOUT TO DREAM ENTERTAINING SPACE
When Katherine and Andrew purchased their property, they always knew a full renovation would follow.
With both the outdated kitchen and untouched garden requiring significant transformation, the project soon became part of Channel 4’s George Clarke’s Beautiful Builds – it was an opportunity they felt perfectly aligned with their vision for the property.
While searching for a local kitchen specialist, Kitchen Design Centre immediately stood out thanks to its long-standing reputation, glowing customer reviews and welcoming showroom experience.
The brief focused on creating a sleek, contemporary kitchen that would feel open, social and highly functional, while complementing the wider architectural renovation of the home.
The finished design delivers a beautifully balanced space that combines clean lines with luxurious detailing.
One of the standout features is the striking worktop design. The waterfall edge peninsula creates a bold focal point within the room, while the continuation of the material across the side panels introduces a seamless, premium aesthetic.
Functionality was equally important throughout the design process, with carefully considered storage solutions and high-quality appliances helping to simplify everyday living. Among Katherine and Andrew’s favourite additions is the Neff oven, praised for both its versatility and pyrolytic self-cleaning function.
The completed result is a sophisticated contemporary space that completely transforms how the home looks, feels, and functions, perfectly reflecting Katherine and Andrew’s original vision from the moment they moved in.
