Sometimes it pays to keep it simple. Toasty bread, butterflied sardines, agrodolce. Dinner done.

A twist on traditional onion bhaji, this is a simple crowd-pleasing snack that’s given a lift with a good-quality eggplant pickle or eggplant brinjal on the side.

A combination that just works.

A cure-anything chicken soup that’ll become a weeknight staple.

A fresh, crisp partner for roast chicken or a satisfying dish in its own right, this salad has zest and crunch in all the right places.

It may feel sacrilegious to mess with a childhood favourite, but this spin on rocky road adds goji berries and freeze-dried strawberries to balance out the sweetness. It’s all the better for it.
