We were supposed to have roast beef recently, but when the day came around I didn't really feel like cooking, so we had a much simpler meal. That, though, left us with a joint of beef that needed using during the week I decided to slow cook it. I did

Cooking time is calculated based on the weight of the cut, as well as whether you want the meat to be rare, medium or well done. Plan to allow the joint to sit, covered, for 20 minutes before carving - it allows the juices to retreat back into the me

We love fajitas, but normally I've made them with chicken, using a pack. This recipe, though, is less hassle than using something like an Old El Paso kit - the prep is about the same, but then you just shove it in the oven and go do something else fo

OK, the name is a travesty, but it means I can easily find the recipe again. There's no Lasagne pasta in there. This is a variation of Mary Berry's Mexican Tortilla Bake recipe - essentially making it easier/lazier to make and boosting some ingredien

The local CO-OP sometimes has steak reduced - not necessarily brilliant cuts, but certainly good enough. As I've mentioned elsewhere, I love Peppercorn Sauce so serve up with the food absolutely drowning in it - you can of course use a little less if

Nothing goes together quite like Chilli and cheese, but there are so many different presentations that can be had at the same time. Tacos are quick and easy, and make a change from rolling your own burritos. You can go all out and make the chilli fro

Thanks to the Fresh Prince, everyone's heard of a Philly Cheese-Steak, but you can't get those outside of Philadelphia, so this recipe doesn't claim to be one. What it is, is a tasty steak, onion and cheese sauce sandwich. There are multiple variatio

Bulgogi recipes tend to use crushed pear juice to help tenderise the meat, but using coca-cola works too (and it's probably easier to get). Marinade the meat overnight for best flavour. Variations on this are fairly easy, you can stir some chopped pe

We don't really have/see Sloppy Joes here, they're very much a US thing, so I thought I'd give them a go. Simple to cook and make, and taste much better than they look, even if they are a little messy to eat Using Chipotle instead of the barbecue sau

I'm not sure when or where I got this, I found it scrawled down whilst sorting through some paperwork. It's a bit of an involved recipe, there's no wandering off and resting while it cooks... Spiced Beef Tagine served on a bed of Couscous

I love pasties, so I thought I'd take a shot at making my own. We ate ours hot out of the oven with chips and veg.

Easily my wife's favourite, I've always preferred Cottage pie to Shepherds pie for some reason. Usually makes enough to serve 4 people, though if you're used to smaller portions than me you may get more out of it. NB: Most of the alcohol boils off,

I like my spicy food to be hot, and this chilli seldom disappoints. Can also be served with grated cheese mixed in, the sauce should be a fiery red when you're done, but be careful as I've permanently stained Tupperware boxes with this stuff!

There's not much that's better than a well-made burger, and with a bit of practice they taste best when you've made your own This recipe will make 8 medium burgers
