UNDER-THE-GRILL SPRING TRAYBAKE

My latest recipe video for The Pool, this traybake is a midweek staple at this time of year. Giant cous cous, halloumi, asparagus and plenty of dill.

ANY NIGHT OF THE WEEK PIZZA

Unlike a traditional dough based pizza this has a crispy base made from cauliflower. Yes, I know it sounds weird but trust me, it’s absolutely delicious. Baked until  golden and topped with a homemade tomato sauce, fresh greens, shaved fennel and a scattering of basil and pecorino.

SMOKY WHITE BEAN QUESADILLAS

Quesadillas, like a lot of Mexican food, get a bad write-up as being cheese- laden and lazy, but they are a truly quick meal, and by filling them with not just cheese they become more nourishing and much more delicious. Here I have stepped away from the straight-up Mexican quesadillas and introduced some Spanish flavours.

STRAWBERRY + ELDERFLOWER SORBET

Just three ingredients go in to making this sweet and refreshing sorbet recipe. Plump, ripe and juicy strawberries blended with sweet elderflower cordial and a whole lemon for a sherberty tang.
