#RecipeOfTheDay is Spaghetti with Lemon, Garlic and Breadcrumbs, a simple, last-minute (and, incidentally #vegan) supper – or lunch, if preferred! – that always seems so much more than the sum of its parts! https://nigella.com/recipes/spaghetti-with-lemon-and-garlic-breadcrumbs

Casseroles are simply the easiest meals to prepare. First you do all your peeling, slicing and sautéing, then you pop everything into a large pot with a lid and leave it in the oven or on the hob for a couple of hours. In the meantime, you can go for a walk, watch a movie or mow the lawn, then later on, you can settle down to a hearty, warming feast.
SERVES 6–8
1 Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F/gas mark 4).
2 Heat the butter in a large, flameproof casserole with a lid over a medium heat. Season the venison and add to the dish. Add the onion, celery and garlic and cook for 2 minutes, stirring. Add the flour and paprika and cook for 1–2 minutes, stirring to combine. Pour in the wine and allow it to bubble down, stirring constantly. Mix in the redcurrant jelly with enough stock to just cover the meat.
3 Bring the casserole to the boil, then season to taste. Cover with a lid and put in the oven for 1 hour. After this time, remove from the oven to add the sweet potatoes and butter beans, then continue cooking in the oven for another hour, until the venison and sweet potatoes are tender.
4 Spoon into warmed bowls and garnish with the parsley to serve.
Stuffed beef rolls with red wine sauce
This recipe uses a good-value cut that isn’t as popular as it should be. It’s perfect comfort food for all the family on a chilly winter evening. It does take time, though, because it needs slow cooking to get as much flavour as possible and to become very tender so that when these stuffed beef rolls are finished cooking, you will be able to eat them with a spoon.
SERVES 4
FOR THE STUFFING:
1 Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F/gas mark 4).
2 First make the stuffing. Heat the oil in a sauté pan. Add the onion and thyme and cook for about 5 minutes, until softened but not coloured. Add the grated parsnips and cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring. Stir in the curry powder and cook for 20 minutes, until the parsnips are tender. Remove from the heat and stir in the breadcrumbs, then season to taste. Spread the stuffing in an even layer over the beef slices and roll them up to enclose, securing them with a cocktail stick.
3 To prepare the casserole, heat the oil in a casserole over a high heat and sear the beef parcels until brown all over. Remove to a plate and set aside. Next, sauté the onion, carrots and celery for a few minutes, until they are just catching colour. Add the beef stock, wine, tomato purée, thyme sprigs and bay leaf and bring slowly to the boil. Return the beef to the casserole, then cover and cook in the oven for 1–1½ hours, until the beef rolls are meltingly tender. Season to taste.
4 To serve, remove the cocktail sticks from the beef parcels and cut them into slices. Arrange on warmed plates and pour over the sauce. Garnish with the thyme and add a dollop of mashed potatoes to each one to serve if liked.
I adore this delicious and nutritious soup. It’s great either for family suppers or for a dinner party. The soup can be frozen and the Dubliner toasts prepared in advance, then grilled at the last moment. Ideal if you need a meal in an instant. Rachel Allen
Melt the butter in a medium to large saucepan, and add the potatoes and onion, salt and pepper. Cover with a piece of wax paper and sweat over a gentle heat for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, cut the broccoli florets from the stalk. Using a small knife, remove the outer layer of skin from the stalk and discard, then chop the stalk into 1/2-inch pieces. Add to the onion and potato, cover and sweat for a further 5 minutes. Add the hot stock to the potatoes, onion and broccoli stalk, bring up to a boil, then add the chopped broccoli florets. Boil without the lid over a high heat for 4–5 minutes until soft, then add the cream. Remove from the heat, puree in a blender and season to taste.To make the Dubliner toasts, toast the bread on both sides, sprinkle with grated Dubliner Cheese and pop under a hot grill or into a hot oven for 2 minutes or until the cheese melts. Cut the toast into fingers and serve on the side with the soup.
