Mains
PizzaChicago Deep-Dish Pizza
Cheese on the bottom, sauce on the top, and a crust closer to pastry than to bread. Built upside down for a reason — forty minutes in the oven would incinerate cheese left on the surface.
5 hrServes 6Hard
MainsOven-Baked BBQ Ribs
No smoker, no grill. Four hours in a low oven, wrapped tight, then glazed and blasted — and one small step at the start that most people skip entirely.
4 hr 30 minServes 4Easy
MainsPub Cheeseburger
A thick patty cooked to a blushing middle, which is the opposite of a smash burger in every way that matters. Handle it as little as you can bear.

SnacksSloppy Joes
Reduced until it mounds on the spoon rather than running off it. The name promises mess, but a sloppy joe that soaks through the bun before you lift it has been undercooked.
35 minServes 4Easy
PastaSpaghetti Bolognese
Milk before tomato, white wine rather than red, and three hours at a bare blip. A real ragù is a meat dish loosened with tomato, not a tomato sauce with mince in it.

MainsChicken Curry with Toasted Spices
Whole spices toasted and ground, and onions cooked far past the point most recipes stop. Twenty-five minutes of onions is the difference between a curry and a stew with curry powder in it.

SaladsCobb Salad
Everything chopped to the same size and laid out in stripes rather than tossed. The arrangement is the recipe — you dress and mix it at the table.
40 minServes 4Easy
SaladsCaprese Salad
Three ingredients and nowhere to hide. Everything depends on the tomatoes being ripe and the mozzarella being fresh, at room temperature.
10 minServes 4Easy
SaladsGreek Village Salad (Horiatiki)
No lettuce — a real horiatiki never has any. Chunky tomato, cucumber and pepper under a whole slab of feta, with nothing but oil and oregano.
15 minServes 4Easy
PizzaWhite Pizza with Ricotta and Garlic
No tomato at all. Ricotta, garlic oil and mozzarella, finished with lemon zest and rocket so it never tastes as heavy as it sounds.

PizzaNew York-Style Pepperoni Pizza
A larger, thinner, foldable slice with a cooked sauce and low-moisture mozzarella. Use cup-and-char pepperoni and it curls into little pools of paprika oil.
