Bolognese
Bolognese sauce – the staple of Italian cuisine, where basic, everyday ingredients cook low and slow to transform into a rich, hearty sauce. Perhaps the best part is that it’s so versatile; I use ground beef and add lots of vegetables for flavour, but you can adapt this recipe to your own taste.
Lasagne
The classic Italian dish that everyone has their own spin on, but ultimately it’s all about the layers! My version uses slow-cooked ragu, bechamel and grated cheese amidst layers of pasta. Each bite offers a harmonious blend of flavours and textures – a truly satisfying and indulgent dish.
Red wine jus
An impressive and elegant jus made with red wine that’s perfect for complementing savoury meat dishes, such as steak, lamb or venison.
Beef ragu
The star of this dish is the beef. Three different cuts of beef each lend something special here: beef cheek for melt-in-your-mouth tenderness, short rib for richness and flavour, and osso buco for texture.
Beef Stroganoff
Beef stroganoff is a symphony of savoury and creamy flavors. The tender beef will melt in your mouth, but the real star of the show is the velvety sauce, which is the perfect combination of tang, gentle spice and cream.
Goulash
This recipe is adapted from traditional Hungarian goulash. It’s rich and immensely satisying, with delicious slow-cooked beef and savoury paprika notes in every bite.
Bolognese soup
This is a winter staple at our house. Comforting but not too heavy, it makes heaps and reheats perfectly. Did I mention that it also cooks in just one pot, and is ready in less than an hour?
