Confit Salmon with Spinach and Tomato by George Calombaris (revisited)

Spaghetti with a Creamy Butternut Squash Sauce

Squash is pretty versatile. Oven roasting, a mash, a hearty soup or as part of a risotto? Been there, done that. Using squash as a basis for a pasta sauce? A definite must-try!!

Lentil and Root Vegetable Mash with Wine-Braised Shallots by Yotam Ottolenghi

Orzo with Tomato, Red Bell Pepper, Grana Padano and Thyme Infused Oil

Mac ‘n Cheese by Marco Pierre White

When the grown-ups indulge in culinary experimentation, it’s always a challenge to make something easy and more suitable for the kids. This time they were quite vocal about it and demanded Mac ‘n Cheese! Luckily, I had this version by Marco Pierre White still in my culinary bucket list.
