all recipes
breakfast burritos
Burritos make the best on-the-go breakfasts. Simply wrap them up in some kitchen foil to keep them hot!
coffee and cream french toast
Serve this indulgent delight for breakfast, brunch or dessert (or any time in between).
tuscan bean and pasta soup
The reassuring texture and flavour of white beans and pasta are brought together in this simple soup, which is filling and warming.
skin-on seaside chips
I couldn’t write this book without including my favourite comfort food: chips. Let this recipe transport you to the great British seaside, tucking into a bag of hot, vinegary chips by the sea.
pitta pizzas
Pitta breads make wonderful pizza bases that can be loaded with toppings before being baked until golden. Little hands love to help too!
chestnut mushroom bourguignon
Delight dinner guests with this deep, boozy, herbed bourguignon.
cherry pot pies
Dark, juicy cherries are sweet, sticky and zesty in these golden pastry-topped pies.
carrot and onion bhajis
My favourite Indian snacks are onion bhajis – not the type that come from a packet in the supermarket, but the aromatic, straight-out-of-hot-oil kind.
rustic ribollita
Traditional Italian ribollita is a hearty and economical dish that uses up kitchen leftovers, including bread. It’s somewhere between a stew and a soup, with a chunky yet starchy base and a substantial bite from the cannellini beans.
soy-roasted broccoli green curry
Broccoli takes on a wonderful, nutty flavour when roasted. Serve it over this Thai green curry for a simple dinner that is full of flavour.
giant spring rolls
I’m sure I don’t speak for just myself when I say that I want more than a bite-sized spring roll.
satay noodles
If you’re a lover of peanut butter, this bowl of creamy noodles is designed for you.
traditional sultana scones
Quintessentially British and perfect with a pot of tea, there’s little in life that can beat a sultana scone.
beer-battered onion rings
These pub-style onion rings make a great sharing starter using store cupboard ingredients.
monday’s root vegetable bhuna
I always roast up too many vegetables to go with Sunday lunch. Sometimes accidentally, sometimes intentionally; either way, they make a perfect addition to this simple and spicy bhuna.
edamame, lime, and sesame jar salad
This is a make-now-and-enjoy-later salad that looks as pretty as it tastes.
2 minute chocolate chip and pecan cookie
Yes, you read that correctly! You will have this comforting cookie in just 2 minutes.
sweetcorn chowder
I love the smoky background to this classic soup, which is sunny in both colour and flavour.
savoury pancakes with garlicky mushrooms
A simple, thrifty, yet luxurious dinner that transforms basic ingredients into a hearty meal. Why wait until Shrove Tuesday to flip the pancake pan?
raspberry, rose, and pistachio crumble
Crumble is my ultimate pudding. The sweet, baked fruit and crunchy topping make it the most comforting bowl there is.
kedgeree with paprika yoghurt
Perfect for breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinner, this kedgeree has plenty of dill and lemon and is great served hot with cooling salted yoghurt and paprika. A balanced dish that everyone will love.
pea guacamole toasts
Avocado toast makes for a delicious brunch, but let’s face it, avocados are an expensive ingredient to purchase frequently. This guacamole uses frozen peas in place of avocado for a fresh, cost-effective brunch.
peanut butter melt-in-the-middle chocolate pudding
Unexpected dinner guest? Mix up this decadent dessert in mere moments.
butternut squash and sage macaroni
One of the most popular recipes on my website is a twice-baked butternut macaroni. It’s one of my favourite comfort foods. After having a craving for this slow-cooked dish, but being too hungry to wait, I recreated this creamy classic, which can be in your bowl within 15 minutes.
three ingredient banana pancakes
These fluffy pancakes are my favourite way to start the day. The riper the banana, the sweeter the pancakes, so use up that banana you’re ready to throw away.
thai slaw
Give your classic coleslaw an Eastern twist. Store-cupboard ingredients make a no-cook sauce, which is delicious with crunchy, raw vegetables. Also delicious with Soy-roasted broccoli green curry from the 15 Minute Vegan on a Budget book.
speedy samosas
This recipe was born when I had a craving for samosas, but not enough time to make the traditional recipe. These speedy samosas have all of the authentic flavours you’re familiar with, but use soft tortillas as the wrapping. Samosas in under 15 minutes? You’ll be hooked.
chocolate ganache-dipped churros
Spanish-style churros are the ultimate sweet finger-food, perfect for dipping into a thick chocolate ganache. The quantity of the ganache is generous, so you can relax the double-dipping rules.
spaghetti alla puttanesca
I first came across this classic Italian dish in Nigella’s Kitchen cookbook. Traditionally, the sauce contains anchovies, however, the olives and capers add all the saltiness it needs to be seasoned and addictive.
