Slow cook

Slow-cooked until pull-apart tender, beef brisket makes a great alternative to mince in this beer-braised chilli

Everything bakes in the same tray, making this one of the easiest Sunday roasts.

Hearty and comforting yet zingy and fresh, this low-effort pork is braised with citrus and spices for hours in either a slow cooker or on the hob, then finished with a marmalade glaze and served with an almond and herb pilaf

Made with meltingly tender brisket instead of mince, this rich, smoky beef chilli is perfect bowl food for Bonfire Night or cold winter evenings

This recipe gives you a delicious, lip-smackingly good sauce, which is soaked up perfectly by the mash. If you're planning to eat this on Bonfire Night, then wrap the potatoes in foil and cook them in the embers for an even more special smoky flavour

These fragrant plums, pickled with ginger and star anise, are the perfect foil for the richness of slow-roast pork belly in a Chinese-style sauce, but they also work brilliantly with roast duck

All the comfort of the classic French stew but with a Chinese flavour twist. Meltingly tender beef in a rich red-wine sauce is flavoured with Chinese 5-spice, star anise and shiitake mushrooms for a hearty winter warmer. Let the casserole take centre stage on the table and serve with buttery mashed potatoes and steamed green beans

A hearty bowl of dhal is the ultimate winter warmer – it’s comforting and nourishing at the same time. Feel free to add any veggies that you have to hand, and serve with warm naan for scooping
