I’m in the habit of picking up a can of tomatoes every time I head to the grocery store, but I hardly amass more than two or three cans. Inevitably, I’ll come across a recipe that calls for canned tomatoes and, lucky for me, all I have to do is stroll to the pantry and pull them out.

Because sometimes you've just got to have a proper, beautiful sticky pudding

Think beyond the fry-up: sausage, beans and tomatoes combine in this English-style cassoulet.

This is a celebration of Spanish flavours coming together in a beautiful way. Mastering a super-juicy pork chop is key, and my advice is to cook two thick chops for four, instead of four thin dry ones.

What better way to mark the coronation celebrations than with my take on this retro beauty? I like to turn this into a delicious salad, but you could absolutely serve everything together as an epic spread, or use the individual components to fill sandwiches – perfect for a street party, buffet or picnic.

This harissa chicken traybake is a brilliant way to cook a whole chicken quickly and easily.

Google will bring up loads of variations on how to make this. I’ve opted for this recipe because it’s one that was shared by my family friend from Delhi, and no matter how many other versions I’ve tried, this is the one I keep coming back to.

This Very British Bolognese, as seen on Jamie Oliver's Channel 4 series Keep Cooking Family Favourites, is a tasty twist on an Italian classic made with ale and a sprinkling of cheddar cheese.

Jamie Oliver's Tomato Curry with Fragrant Spices, Saffron and Coconut Sauce and Toasted Almonds is a quick and delicious curry best enjoyed in the summer for peak tomato season. An easy, flavourful meal for busy weeknights.

My daughter made this chicken last night and it was amazing. Jamie's recipe calls for it to be served with a watermelon and noodle salad, which my daughter did make - but we only photographed the chicken because we didn't quite have enough salad ingredients so it looked kind of funny…not photograph worthy, you could say. But this chicken is really lovely, tender and flavoursome. It serves 4 with salad or vegetables on the side. Ingredients: 8 skinless, boneless chicken thighs (we used a double chicken breast) 1 tablespoon Chinese five spice ½ tablespoon olive oil 2 tablespoons sweet chilli sauce 2 tablespoons sesame seeds Small handful of coriander, torn Method: Pre-heat a large frying pan with the olive oil Place the chicken on baking paper (or between glad wrap), sprinkle with salt, pepper and Chinese five spice and flatten it with a mallet Place the chicken into the frying pan on a medium-high heat and turn after 5mins. If you've bashed the chicken really thin though - it will take less time, so keep an eye on it Once both sides are lovely and brown and you an smell the aromas in the air, remove from the heat and drain any excess oil from the frying pan Return the pan to the heat with the chicken in, drizzle with the sweet chilli sauce and toss with the sesame seeds Serve onto a platter and garnish with the torn coriander D-E-L-icious XD

This sweet risotto is a brilliant Italian twist on the oozy rice pudding we all know and love

Feel free to use vegetarian haggis if you prefer, which you can find online. Tatties (mashed potatoes) don’t usually contain spring onions, so omit them if you like.

A stunning homemade cordial to capture the taste of summer. Use whatever berries you have to hand (even frozen will work well), but raspberries are particularly good here.

I like my Scotch eggs a little runny in the middle, but if you prefer a hard-boiled centre, leave the eggs in to boil for an extra couple of minutes at the start. These are the ultimate picnic snack.

It's a recipe that takes some trust (cook a whole chicken in milk?), but trust you should — the results more than speak for themselves.

A total Welsh classic, this traditional dish reminds Michael of his grandmother’s homely cooking. The ingredients are minimal, so it’s worth giving a bit of love to prepping each veg to the perfect size so it’s a pleasure to eat. To really bolster the flavours and let them develop, try making this the day before you need it.

Cooked low and slow, ribs are a time investment, but if you want out-of-this-world flavour, you can’t rush these things! My secret weapon is to smoke them for the last 30 minutes, kissing the meat with incredible depth and smokiness.

You can’t beat the comfort of baked pasta and here, I’m celebrating the delicious iron-y punch of spring chard as a filling. It contrasts beautifully with the sweet lightness of the tomato base and the creamy ooze of the cheesy topping. It’s springtime in a dish, and might just succeed in putting a bit of spring in your step!

Unsure how to make a pork pie? This traditional hot water crust pastry filled with pork shoulder and belly will ensure success

I found this recipe on The Splendid Table website. What I am posting here is an adaptation of the adaptation I found there of a recipe for Baked Onions from 'Happy Days with the Naked Chef' by Jamie Oliver. Sounds well-worth trying. Baked onions are a great accompaniment to roasts. To significantly reduce the fat content, use a low-fat or reduced fat cream.

This is a classic accompaniment to fish & chips with a Jamie Oliver twist.

From british chef Jamie Oliver's trip to scandinavia, a delicious version. Allow 1 hour for the meatballs to firm before cooking.

Biang Biang noodles are a Northern Chinese specialty, hailing from Shaanxi Province. They are generally wide, thick, and chewy, and most importantly, hand-made, giving these biang biang noodles a slightly uneven texture that clings to that signature spicy cumin lamb sauce really well.

Pete’s partner, Dolly Sweet, is brilliant at baking and desserts. Every autumn she makes this trifle using brambles they’ve picked themselves. Trifle is perfect for when people are over as it looks great and can be made in advance.

This amazing homemade chicken pie is the perfect sharing dish. Beautiful crumbly pastry, tender pieces of chicken and sweet leeks cooked in a creamy cider sauce. What are you waiting for? Get stuck in.

I love a good panna cotta. These are so utterly easy to make and great for a party. The blend of cream & yoghurt means they're fresh and elegant, and with the combination of delicate fruit and crunchy biscuits to dip each spoonful into, every mouthful is absolute bliss.

This is a nice change from mint sauce and it's so simple that it's hardly a recipe. It originated as one of the accompaniments for his recipe: Guinness
