Courgette and Lemon Spaghetti

After seeing this Courgette Spaghetti dish on Stanley Tucci’s: Searching for Italy I was inspired to create a weeknight version with a spritz of lemon.

Baked Brisket Penne

I always keep some beef brisket aside after slow roasting a joint for Sunday lunch so that I can make this deeply delicious baked pasta dish.

Wild Boar Ragu

Wild Boar is becoming much more readily available in UK supermarkets and Food Halls. It has less fat and cholesterol than pork and tastes amazing in this slow cook ragu.

Oven Baked Meatballs

It’s easy to make big batches of meatballs by baking them in the oven. It’s far less messy than cooking them on the stove top.

Smoked Salmon Pasta

Smoked Salmon has such a fantastic flavour you don’t need much more to make this pasta dish sing. It’s somehow light and comforting at the same time.

Tortellini in Broth

A package of ready made tortellini can be transformed into this beautiful, comforting and nutritious meal in less than 20 minutes. Just make sure you’ve got stock vegetable stock to make the whole thing sing.

Puttanesca

Puttanesca is a classic pasta sauce that is ready incredibly quickly and relies on tinned and jarred ingredients. It’s incredibly good for you and once of my favourite salty dishes.
