This is one of the most well-known Italian pasta dishes – it is simply pasta with an aubergine and tomato sauce.  Adding some of the pasta water to the sauce is a great tip:  it adds flavour, glues the sauce and pasta together and thickens the sauce. 

A classic dish: I like mine served with rice, grated cheese, coriander, a side of sliced avocado and maybe a dollop of Greek yogurt!

This recipe uses the cup method for cooking rice – I have put approximate measurements but these will vary depending on the size of the cup you choose! Whilst the rice is cooking you mustn’t be tempted to remove the lid – it needs to steam and if you don’ t soak the rice (or use white rice), your cooking times will vary.

I’m always looking for new ways to cook chicken: this is one of my favourites!  What’s not to like?  Creamy garlic, crunchy breadcrumbs, sweet tomatoes and earthy broccoli!   

I love mushrooms, not only are they a good source of B vitamins but they also contain a powerful antioxidant that helps to support the immune system and prevent damage to cells and tissues.

This is a really easy fish recipe with a super simple, zingy dressing!  The timings may vary slightly depending on the thickness of your fillets, but don’t be tempted to cook the fish for too long – less in definitely more when it comes to cooking fish!

This butter chicken recipe is mild, but can easily be spiced up with some extra chillies (my husband and I always add a sprinkling to ours!) I like mine served with a dollop of aubergine chutney and a sprinlking of fresh coriander.

Classic comfort food!  As a family we love Yorkshire puddings (they are definitely not just a beef accompaniment in our house!), so this has to be a family favourite! 

The simple onion gravy is from a lovely cook I follow on Instagram;
