"This huevos rancheros recipe is a take on the Mexican dish of eggs and spicy tomato sauce on tortillas. Capsicum gives sweetness, and the chorizo lends a lovely smoky flavour. It’s brilliant for a late brunch. I like to throw in some beans to make it super-hearty and add even more goodness. Try any kind – black, kidney, whatever you have in the pantry." – Jamie Oliver

"This may be a simple salad in theory, but the Italians really know how to take it to the next level. To replicate the wonderful intensity of flavours, seek out great produce and use simple techniques, such as oven-roasting the tomatoes." – Shannon Bennett
