Put store-bought gnocchi to good use, browning it for a mix of crispy outsides and chewy middles, then pairing with juicy tomatoes and melty, blistered pockets of mozzarella for even more crisp-tenderness.

Jiao yan xia, the classic Chinese dish, inspired these prawn rolls — peeled prawns are seasoned with salt and pepper, breaded with cornstarch and fried until crunchy before getting tucked into toasted rolls.

Picture sour cream and onion dip slathered on chicken cutlets, dredged in panko bread crumbs, and fried until crisp like a potato chip, and you’ll envision this recipe.
Salty, sour and sweet flavours define chicken adobo, the national dish of the Philippines, and here, those same flavous and ingredients are applied to cauliflower for a vegetarian spin.
Charming fish shacks and salty sea air aren’t a weeknight possibility for most of us, but thankfully, this recipe is.
When French toast meets kimchi grilled cheese, we arrive at a surprising and joyous union.

Dinner in 15 minutes, this recipe is as generous as it is tart and creamy.

What will you get? Supremely crisp, juicy chicken thighs and hot honey schmaltz, serving as warm vinaigrette for sturdy greens and sauce for your — let’s say it again — supremely crisp, juicy chicken thighs.
These brownies get their fudgy texture from a quick ice bath just after baking. The shock causes the batter to contract and concentrate, intensifying its character.

For this take on the classic, prawn replaces traditional crayfish and creates an excellent dish all its own. The technique for roux here employs a clever shortcut to get dinner to the table especially fast.

A buttery sauce run through with vibrant citrus and mint brings an easy elegance to this salmon. Don’t let the short ingredient list fool you: there’s lots of flavour here.

Roasting chicken thighs in a hot oven is a hands-off way to achieve two of life’s greatest pleasures: crispy skin and golden schmaltz. And you want that chicken fat to crisp hand-torn bread into croutons.

In this hearty, colourful salad, cauliflower florets, slivers of red onion and briny capers are coated with spices and roasted until the florets turn soft and sweet, and the onions and capers get crisp.
I’ll make soup out of almost anything, but this potato-cheddar variation is an entirely different thing. It’s a silky-smooth puree that’s hearty but not heavy, with chilli powder and garlic to liven things up.
It’s 7pm, and dinner is on the table: a large, one-dish centerpiece for everyone to dig into. We call it a ‘one-pot wonder’ for a good reason, and that is its ability to connect ingredients and humans alike.

Poaching eggs in a tomato sauce is a classic path to a quick, meat-less meal. Be it an onion-y shakshuka or chilli-flecked eggs in purgatory, tangy sweet tomatoes swirled with runny egg yolk is a crowd-pleaser.
This recipe may have cracked the code to fast chicken noodle soups. Other shortcut versions rely on rotisserie chicken, which doesn’t absorb flavours in the same way as the chicken mince used here.

A version of the street-side flavour bomb, best served with pita and tahini, chopped cucumbers and tomatoes, olives, chopped parsley, feta, fried eggplant, hummus swirled with harissa, rice or rice pilaf.

If you have some slightly sweet vegetables at your disposal — not just carrots, but onions, parsnips, beets or pumpkin — this is the recipe for you.

Like little black dresses, you can never have too many roast chicken recipes. So when a reader sent this recipe from her French mother, for roast chicken with tarragon, butter and cognac, I gave it a try.
