Texas-Inspired Chili
No beans, no apologies. Slow-cooked beef chuck with dried chilies, cinnamon and masa harina. The real thing.

Sausage Rolls
Proper homemade sausage rolls with buttery shortcrust pastry. The kind that make shop-bought ones taste like cardboard.

Sourdough Crumpets
Proper homemade crumpets made from sourdough starter. All those bubbles aren't an accident — they're the whole point.

Tilapia Coconut Curry with Tamarind
A golden, fragrant coconut curry with tilapia, tamarind and kaffir lime. Looks like a restaurant dish. Tastes like one too. Easier than you'd think.

Simple Italian Tomato Pasta Sauce
The sauce every cook needs to know. Onion, garlic, tomatoes, herbs. Thirty-five minutes and you'll never buy a jar again.

Pozole Verde
A proper Mexican pork and hominy stew with a vivid green tomatillo and roasted chili sauce. One of those dishes that looks impressive and tastes even better.

Sautéed Okra and Tomatoes
A Southern classic that converts okra sceptics. Cooked hot and fast first to kill the slime, then slow with tomatoes until everything collapses into something deeply savoury.

Roasted Acorn Squash
Wedges of acorn squash roasted until the edges caramelise and the flesh goes soft and sweet. Five minutes of work, the oven does the rest.

Garlic Sautéed Rainbow Chard with Yellow Courgette
A fast, vibrant side dish that makes rainbow chard the star. Ready in 20 minutes and makes you feel like you know what you're doing.
