Our easy recipes include plenty of quick weeknight options. Rustle up a big bowl of summer pasta, like caramelised fennel gnocchi or comforting norma al forno (aubergine pasta bake).

Get the barbecue out – it’s time for dinner on a stick! Our delicious skewer recipes include halloumi and apricot, tamarind chicken or filling prawn and new potato skewers with fiery red-pepper dip.
