Beef Ragu

This slow-cooked beef ragù is perfect for batch-cooking and because it’s cooked in the oven it’s low effort. Serve three tablespoons of ragù to every 100g/3½oz serving of fresh pasta.

Roasted lamb rumps with crushed Niçoise potatoes

A chic summer dish where lamb is the star. Great served with seasonal vegetables.

Cocktail

Watermelon and raspberry cooler

Here you can use frozen orange slices to cool the drink down. Ice cubes will do fine if you haven’t time to let the fruit freeze. You may fancy a splash of vodka in these, if that’s your thing.

Puddings

This ice-cream is rich enough without using cream, but you could replace half the milk with cream if you wish. If you can find a plump, sticky vanilla pod, then one will be enough. Failing that, two or three smaller ones will do.

Peach, raspberry and redcurrant sundae

The raspberry and redcurrant sauce is thickened with blackcurrant jam, but you could use apricot jam or redcurrant jelly. The sauce thickens slightly on cooling. Sweeten it once cooled with a little icing sugar if you wish.
