One-pot meals
There's something highly satisfying about chucking all the ingredients into one pot and leaving them to meld into something full of flavour! Less washing-up too...
Serves 2-3Spinach Gnocchi with Four Cheeses
Little Italian dumplings made from potato, flour and egg are a great vehicle for carrying other flavours. Here, Delia has used spinach and cheese for a vegetarian version, but you can try other variations too.
Serves 1Vegetarian Moussaka
A lovely vegetarian recipe for one person...or you could make a batch to freeze some.
Serves 1Boboutie
This just goes to show you can make something really special with ordinary minced beef. The recipe comes from Africa, but seems to me to have an interesting mixture of European and Oriental overtones.
Serves 1Baked Lamb with Potato, Garlic and Rosemary
A great midweek supper or weekend treat, this recipe simply involves throwing lamb chops, garlic, herbs and potatoes into a baking tin and roasting. What could be easier?
Serves 1Kashmir Spiced Prawns
This is a fresh, mildly spicy curry – and very quick to make. If you would like it a bit more fiery, I suggest you add ¼ teaspoon of chilli powder. Another point: if you don't want to grind your spices, you can use instead 1 level teaspoon hot curry
Serves 1Chinese Stir-fried Chicken with Broccoli and Mushrooms

Serves 1Beef Curry cooked in Yoghurt
A meat curry for one? Well, why not? By the time it's cooked, your kitchen will have a marvellous spicy aroma, you'll be ravenous – and you'll really appreciate it.
Serves 1Cheese and herb-crusted Cottage Pie
This recipe is part of a Mixed Double. I believe it is worth going to the trouble of making twice as much mince filling as you need for this cottage pie (actually it's no more trouble than making a smaller quantity) and using the rest for...
Serves 12Braised Red Cabbage with Apples
I like to freeze two thirds of this to serve 8 on New Year’s Eve and I serve the rest on Christmas Eve as an accompaniment to roast gammon. This is a recipe I have been cooking for years. It’s great because it can be made the day before and gently re
Serves 6-8Pile-it-high Orange and Rhubarb Meringue Pie
The flavour of orange zest does something quite magical to the flavour of rhubarb, and this light, fluffy meringue pie is a perfect dessert for late spring. ‘Pile-it-high meringue', incidentally, applies only if you have extra egg whites to use up..
