Mains
A great way to make the most of a glut of sweet vegetables such as red onions, aubergine, baby courgettes and orange peppers. The addition of fresh tomatoes and marjoram really lifts this dish and the colours look wonderful on the plate. Cook until tender and serve with crusty bread or a side of fluffy couscous.
Quick and simple to prepare and cook, this dish uses fresh tuna steaks, which can be bought from the fish counter or in fresh and frozen packs. Always season your fish before cooking and coat with oil; never oil the pan. The salsa can be prepared in advance and kept in the fridge to save time.
It’s surprisingly simple to make your own pizza and this recipe is a great one for doing with the kids. They’ll love getting messy, making and kneading the dough, and you can let them loose with bowls of baby plum tomatoes, mushroom slices, sweetcorn and ham then encourage them to create their own designs. A Rangemaster pizza pan is the perfect tool for this job but you can also use a floured baking tray.
The ultimate Sunday roast, this family favourite of chicken, veg and gravy can all be cooked in one tin. Allow yourself plenty of time to prepare the bird – 30 minutes should do it – while cooking takes around 1hr 20. Make sure there’s enough wine left for a glass or two for the cook!
This one-pot wonder makes a great Sunday roast. If you’re unsure about French trimming the lamb, ask your butcher to do it for you. Spreading the lamb with Harissa paste gives it a warm, spicy flavour while adding a deep red colour that looks stunning on the plate. Using sweet potatoes can also make a nice change from traditional roasties.
A store cupboard standby, this Italian classic is so easy and quick to make yet tastes absolutely delicious. If you can’t get hold of clams, use cockles or mussels instead, and if you don’t have time to shop, just serve as a tomato-based dish. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley or a few basil leaves.
Another Rangemaster fish favourite, this tasty dish combines the delicate flavour of trout with salty anchovies and fresh red chillies. You can serve it whole or with the head removed on a bed of wilted greens and go steady on the chilli if you prefer a warming rather than hot spice. A refreshingly different main course when you fancy a change from meat and two veg.
Another pork and ham favourite, this recipe is inspired by a traditional Italian dish and is best served with spaghetti or linguine to hold the sauce better. It shouldn’t take longer than 30mins to prepare and cook, making it an ideal weekend lunch. Remember, you’ll need cling film at the ready to flatten the pork before cutting into two thin pieces.
Rich and creamy, this classic rice dish combines the delicate flavour of prawns and salmon with the distinctive taste of asparagus. Use risotto or Arborio rice for best results and stir continuously for that rich, creamy texture. Add more butter for extra richness and a few Parmesan shavings to finish.

A fantastic superfood, rich in protein, this warming pie is perfect winter fodder with a rich gravy and cubed game and bacon filling. Ask your butcher to prepare the game for you by using pheasant, partridge, grouse, rabbit, venison, wild boar, quail or pigeon – whatever’s in season will work best. Serve with your favourite vegetables and your choice of potatoes.
A real show-stopper, this dish is sure to impress guests at a dinner party. It may look complicated but it’s simple enough to make if you have everything to hand before you start.

If you’re unsure about preparing fresh fish, ask your fishmonger to descale and gut the snapper for you, so it’s ready to cook when you get home.
