In this month’s issue
“Let’s face it: autumn suits us. There’s something about the cooler days, earlier evenings and return of roasts that gives the home cook a warm glow. This issue is all about comfort food with character, from our cover star creamy pumpkin curry to Sunday roast ramen – we’ve given global favourites a Good Food spin. We’re also celebrating pie in all its flaky glory, helping you create bakes to be proud of, and the best roast chicken you’ll ever make is on page 108, complete with gravy.
For cooking smarter midweek, we’ve also packed in easy bowl food and switch-on, veg-out slow cooker dinners. Halloween is on the horizon, too, of course. Don’t miss our low-waste party ideas – all treats, no tricks, with less impact on the planet. Plus, we look at the health-giving, planetfriendly power of pulses and grains. So, whether you crave the comfort of a seasonal pear cake, Britain’s best cheese, or you’re still just chasing the sunshine, there’s a dish – and a daydream – here for everyone.“
