With Easter almost here, it’s time to start thinking about the special seasonal dishes you may be eating over the bank holiday. It’s a tradition for people to eat fish on Good Friday, and may also enjoy a lavish meal on Easter Sunday which includes lamb or chicken. Plus, let’s not forget hot cross buns for breakfast and of course many chocolate eggs.
