Recipe notes

Pickle Coleslaw

Creamy, vinegary, and with lots of fresh dill.

Crispy Oyster Mushroom Skewers With Bok Choy Salad

Oyster mushrooms are a strong all-rounder in the kitchen, seeming to straddle both plant and meat worlds in what they look and taste like when cooked. Here they’re coated in a marinade my mother used to use when cooking Chinese food at home—honey, soy, garlic and ginger—and roasted until golden, crisp, and juicy.

Fattoush Salad With Lemon-Sumac Dressing

Every salad should have pita chips.

Smothered Italian Sausage

This is what I call a fridge-eater recipe. The key here is getting a nice sear on the sausage and cooking the tomato down until it coats the sausage and vegetables well.

Chopped Salad With Sardines and Preserved Lemon

A feel-good meal full of crunchy veg and even crunchier pita chips.

Spicy Tinned Tuna Tostadas

Made with tinned fish and topped with mango and avocado, these vibrant tostadas won't break the bank.

Ensalada Rusa (Pink Potato Salad)

This Caribbean classic, made with beets for a magenta hue, looks as striking as it tastes.

Fufu

Fufu is a dish that has been passed down through many generations and is seen as a symbol of Ghanaian identity and heritage. Making fufu traditionally is a very laborious task; this recipe mimics some of that hard work but with a few home-cook hacks that make for a far easier time.
