MainsSkin-side down for ninety per cent of the cooking time, weighted flat so it never curls. You barely touch it, and the skin shatters like a crisp.
PastaFive ingredients, twenty minutes, and the whole dish depends on getting the garlic exactly golden — a shade darker and the oil turns bitter.
MainsChunks of braising steak rather than mince, dried chillies toasted and blitzed into a paste, and no beans — which in Texas is not a suggestion.
MainsAn overnight buttermilk brine, a craggy double-dredge, and oil held steadily at 165°C. Patience at every stage, and it rewards all of it.
MainsSalted an hour ahead, seared dry and hard, then basted in foaming butter. A meat thermometer does more for a steak than any amount of confidence.
BakingRaw garlic grated to a paste, not chopped, so it melts into the butter instead of catching and turning bitter in the oven.
SnacksButter beans blitzed far longer than feels necessary, until the texture goes from grainy to genuinely silky. The lemon goes in at the very end.
SaladsMore herbs than leaves, with chickpeas fried until they rattle in the pan. A lunch that holds up for hours instead of wilting in twenty minutes.
SoupsRoasting the tomatoes first concentrates everything good about them. The beans go in whole and half-blended, so the soup is creamy without any cream.
MainsChicken thighs roasted over orzo that cooks in its own stock, finished with lemon halves charred until they taste almost caramelised.
