BudgetTriple Asparagus Spaghetti
The tough bottom third that usually gets thrown away is the best bit here — sliced thin and left in lemon juice it turns into a sharp raw pickle that cuts through the creamy sauce.
BudgetTriple Chocolate Gloop
Rim and swirl the glass before you blend, and chill it if you can. Once the mixture is made it starts softening straight away, so the glass wants to be ready and waiting.
BudgetTriple Honey Mustard Dressing
A sharp, sweet dressing built on Dijon, hot English and wholegrain mustard with honey and cider vinegar.
BudgetTriple Lemon Chickpeas
Chickpeas braised with charred, preserved and fresh lemon, finished with creme fraiche, parmesan and spinach.
BudgetTriple Tomato Salad with Lemongrass and Sesame Saté
Salt the big tomato wedges in a sieve while you make the saté. They shed their watery juice instead of releasing it onto the plate and diluting the oil.
BudgetTriple Tomato Spaghetti
A slow-simmered tomato sauce built from tinned, sun-dried and fresh tomatoes, tossed through spaghetti with basil and parmesan.
BudgetTuna Melt Enchiladas
Pack the tortillas in snugly, seam-side down. Left loose they unroll in the oven and the filling escapes into the sauce.
BudgetTuna Ragù
Stir the tuna in only once the sauce is off the boil and thickened. Simmering it breaks the flakes down into mush and the whole thing loses its texture.
BudgetTuna Salad with Spicy Mayo and Crispy Garlic
Fry the garlic chips first and drain them on paper while everything else comes together — they only stay crisp if they cool completely before they hit the salad.
BudgetTuna and Bean Salad with Green Beans
Blanch the green beans for one minute and refresh them under cold water straight away — that keeps them squeaky and bright green rather than dull and soft in the dressing.
BudgetTuna and Cherry Tomato Spaghetti
Using both fresh and tinned cherry tomatoes is the point — the tinned ones break down into the sauce while the fresh halves keep their shape and burst.
BudgetTuna and Egg Fried Rice with Avocado
Scramble the eggs in a cleared corner of the pan rather than over the rice — they set into proper curds instead of coating every grain and going rubbery.
BudgetTuna and Sweetcorn Linguine with Crispy Capers
Pat the capers and sweetcorn properly dry before they hit the oil, or they steam instead of crisping and the topping never gets its crunch.
BudgetTuna, Cannellini and Green Olive Spaghetti
Spaghetti with tuna, cannellini beans, green olives and capers, finished with lemon zest and chilli flakes.
BudgetTuna, Celery and Miso Smash
Miso replaces most of the mayonnaise here — one tablespoon of mayo binds it while the miso brings the savoury depth, so it stays high protein without tasting austere.
BudgetTuna, Egg and Tomato Grain Salad
Grating the eggs rather than chopping them is what makes this work — the yolk breaks down into the vinegar and oil and thickens the dressing like a rough mayonnaise.
BudgetTurmeric Miso Udon with Blistered Tomatoes
A fifteen-minute noodle bowl built on store-cupboard basics. Whisking the miso and turmeric into the pan before the noodles go in is what gets the sauce clinging rather than sitting at the bottom.
BudgetUltimate Tofu Scramble
Crumbled tofu fried until golden, then folded off the heat into a creamy blitzed sauce of soy milk and nutritional yeast.
BudgetWarm Tuna and New Potato Salad with Caper Dressing
Dress the potatoes while they are still hot and let a few break up. The broken edges soak up the dressing and thicken it, which is what makes this taste like more than the sum of its parts.
