This hearty meal gets its flavor from an overnight soak in red wine, a slow braise until tender, and the addition of plenty of mushrooms and bacon.

Jamie Oliver’s Garlic Pull-Apart Rolls
A fun side dish that also tastes exceptionally good. Rolls of cheese-filled garlic bread in a tear-and-share loaf, they make a terrific snack, too.
Rigatoni with Tomatoes, Eggplant, and Mozzarella
Jumble together pasta, tomatoes, eggplant, ooey gooey mozzarella, and a splash of cream in just 35 minutes. Jamie Oliver’s quick pasta dinner also makes a mean casserole.
Warm Arugula Salad
Caramelized red onions. Pancetta. Pine nuts. A dribble of balsamic vinegar. Peppery arugula. Convinced yet?
Steak Sandwich
Seared steak. Caramelized onions. Warm ciabatta. Sounds like something we’re not going to want to share. (And yes, this works perfectly with that leftover steak you have in the fridge.)
Chicken and Leek Pot Pie
Tender chicken and sausage meatballs sidle up alongside sweet leeks and a tipsy white wine cream sauce. Then the whole shebang is topped with indecently rich and flaky puff pastry in this recipe from (90s flashback alert) Jamie Oliver.
Jamie Oliver’s Sunday Roast
An exceptionally tender roast and crisp-as-can-be roasted potatoes that will make any meal memorable beyond words.
Spanish Olive Oil Tortas ~ Tortas de Aceite
We’ve been wobbly in the knees for these sweet and shatteringly crisp little Spanish olive oil tortas. And now that we know how to make them at home, we can’t decide if that’s a good thing or not…
Japanese-Style Cucumber Salad
Simple. Surprising. Spunky. Just what we look for in a summer salad. Just what we found in this jumble of cucumbers, vinegar, and ginger.
Jamie Oliver’s Pappardelle & Beef Ragu
A show of hands, please. Who swoons to a beef ragu that’s slowly imbued with wine and aromatics and then tossed atop pasta? Just as we thought.
