Wrapping the salmon in foil allows the juices to infuse beautifully in the salmon, resulting in the salmon literally melting in your mouth. A little bit of honey provides a subtle natural sweetness to the dish but it is equally delicious without. Feel free to exchange the butter with olive oil as a lighter alternative.

Nothing screams summer more than mangos and prawns in Australia. A simple lime dressing in this salad lets the prawns and mango shine. If prepping the salad in advance, drizzle a little lime juice on the avocado to slow the browning process. Citrus fruits naturally contain citric acid, which works against oxygen to slow down the browning process.

Let the seafood shine in this simple spaghetti marinara. Try to buy local sustainable seafood at your local fishmonger/market wherever possible. I love adding a chili kick in my marinara mix with the addition of some chili flakes or paste.

This is a vegan version of pho may not be traditional, but it tastes delicious with a beautiful spicy broth complemented nicely with a savoury umami from the shiitake mushrooms.

This leek and lentil soup is not only delicious but packed full of nutrients. Stir through some cream or crème fraiche after puréeing for a richer taste. For a leaner version, leave out the cream at the end.

Leeks pair perfectly with roasted chicken to create these delicious pot pies. To save time, this recipe uses frozen puff pastr. But if you’re feeling game and have the time, you can make your own pastry from scratch. To avoid a melted pastry, ensure the chicken and leek mixture is cooled before placing the puff pastry on top.

This bread and butter pudding recipe calls for skimmed milk or a plant-based milk to make it a healthy option. Use an unrefined sugar like coconut sugar to provide a natural sweetness. The pudding is best used with bread which is at least a day old so it keeps its integrity and doesn’t get too soggy.

This bruschetta uses balsamic onions as a modern twist on the recipe. Make sure you marinate the tomato mixture for at least 20 minutes to really bring out the juices and flavour of the tomatoes. Really ripe tomatoes are best in this recipe.
