This is a magnificent dish to serve to a hungry crowd – it’s effortless to prepare, uses a cheaper cut of meat and is simply delicious to eat.


This dish is a quick, pared-back version of the classic winter staple, slow-cooked red cabbage with onion, apple, bacon, vinegar and brown sugar. I love it midweek with mash and sausages.

This rich and buttery pilau is based on a recipe from my gracious friend Joyce Westrip’s seminal book Moghul Cooking. It’s more than just a dish of rice, with delicious pops of cardamom and sweet sultanas threaded throughout.

Proper baked beans – utterly scrumptious.

Bursting with flavour and a fantastic way to use up a variety of vegetables, especially if you’re happy to stray from the traditional Thai curry ingredients.

Midweek, when you wish the taco truck would roll by, get your A into G and whip up a quick tomato and sausage salsa.

Midweek meal ideas a headache? Here’s a quickie.

While every meal was wonderful growing up, there was one my father, Roger, made that remains a favourite to this day.

Homely, sweetly scenting the kitchen, tender fall-off-the-bones …

Schnitzels are always popular, capers add a zing to the crust.

When made well, this is a satisfying and delicious dish.

Mid-week substantial fare. Packs a punch, fills everyone up = everyone happy.

Nostalgic comfort food at its best.

Little cuties, short cylinders of crêpes filled with ricotta and parmesan.

Easy to make and can be used in sweet and savoury dishes.

Cheesy, crusty and all things good.

Hot work, hot oil, hot hot hot! Dinner cooked in 7 minutes.

The aromas given off as this dish cooks propel me right into the heart of my late Italian mother-in-law Mamma Rosa’s kitchen.

The title may sound a bit ho-hum, but the flavours are anything but. I’d go so far as to say it’s super delicious.

Everythinhg tastes better in pastry!

This is such a cool idea. It makes a dish of meatballs an easy job for a midweek meal.
