Accessible IngredientJuicy Turkey Burgers with Burger Sauce and Pickles
Mayonnaise in the mince is the trick — 3% fat turkey has almost nothing to keep it moist, and the fat in the mayo does that job without making the patties greasy.
Accessible IngredientMozzarella-Topped Turkey Steaks with Tomato and Caper Sauce
Turkey steak is lean and turns dry fast, so it goes into a properly hot pan for two minutes a side and finishes under the grill rather than cooking through in the sauce.
SpeedyMushroom & Tofu Butter Curry
A creamy coconut butter curry with caramelised mushrooms and browned tofu.
EasyOne-Tin Thai Green Cod with Coconut Rice and Greens
Cod, rice and greens baked in one tin under a blended Thai green coconut sauce, with lime-pickled onion and chilli.
BudgetPappa al Pomodoro (Tuscan Tomato and Bread Soup)
Trim the crusts and tear the bread rather than cutting it — ragged edges break down into the soup and thicken it, where neat cubes just sit there as cubes.
Packed LunchProper Tomato Soup
The tablespoon of vinegar at the end is what stops it tasting flat — long-simmered tinned tomatoes go sweet, and the acid brings the tomato flavour back into focus.
Accessible IngredientRed Curry Spaghetti with Roasted Cherry Tomatoes
Spaghetti tossed with fried red curry paste, roasted cherry tomatoes, lime and fish sauce.
BudgetRoasted Squash, Tomato & Feta Gnocchi
A one-tray roast of gnocchi, butternut squash, chickpeas and burst tomatoes around a block of baked feta.

Good To FreezeSeared Tuna Caesar with Roasted Butternut Squash
Scrunch the shredded cavolo nero with salt and lemon juice before dressing it. Raw kale stays tough and waxy otherwise, and a minute of squeezing does what cooking would.
SpeedySichuan and Black Pepper Beef Mince Stir-Fry
Beef mince and green beans in a sticky oyster sauce, spiked with crushed black and Sichuan pepper, over rice.
BudgetSizzling Chilli Oil Udon with Pak Choi
The whole dish turns on the last step: the oil has to be shimmering when it hits the chilli and garlic, so it blooms rather than sits. Ten minutes start to finish.
BudgetSlow-Roasted Tomato & Aubergine Linguine
Linguine with slow-roasted cherry tomatoes, aubergine and capers, finished with lemon and parmesan.
BudgetSouth Indian Tomato Chutney
A smooth, tangy South Indian tomato chutney finished with a tempering of mustard seeds, curry leaves and dried chilli.
Good To FreezeSpiced Tea-Soaked Hot Cross Buns
Steeping the dried fruit in tea plumps it and carries flavour through the crumb. The dough is very sticky at first - keep kneading and it comes good rather than adding more flour.
Accessible IngredientSpiced Turkey and Pearl Barley Soup
Give the vegetables the full 15 minutes to collapse before the spices go in — that slow start is what gives the broth its body, and no amount of simmering later makes up for rushing it.
SpeedySpicy Tinned Tuna Rice Bowl with Miso Slaw
Sriracha-mayo tuna, miso-dressed carrot and cabbage slaw and edamame over sushi rice, scooped up with nori.
Accessible IngredientSticky Thai Red Curry Salmon with Coconut Lime Rice
Golden salmon bites in a sticky Thai red curry and honey glaze over coconut lime jasmine rice with steamed green beans and coriander.
BudgetStir-Fried Tomato & Egg Noodles
Soft scrambled egg and tomatoes cooked down into a sweet-savoury sauce, spooned over wheat noodles and finished with chilli oil.
BudgetStore-Cupboard Tuna and Olive Spaghetti
Give the onions the full 15 minutes to soften and catch — they are the only fresh aromatic in a tin-and-jar sauce, so they carry the sweetness the whole dish is built on.
