Toad-in-a-hole is not just for dinner; it can be for breakfast, too. This is simple and delicious. Sausages, mushrooms, and batter…you can't go wrong. Chicken- or vegetable-based sausages both work well here. I've added some spices to the batter to give the dish an extra punch—and the turmeric gives a lovely vibrancy to this dish. 

This recipe was excerpted from 'Time to Eat' by Nadiya Hussain. Buy the full book on Amazon.

Smothered Italian Sausage
This is what I call a fridge-eater recipe. The key here is getting a nice sear on the sausage and cooking the tomato down until it coats the sausage and vegetables well.

Charred Vegetable Ragù
This sauce is slightly magical. The texture cloaks pasta much like a traditional meat sauce does, and the flavors are deep and rich, but it’s actually vegan!
Spice-Grilled Pork Chops
A pinch of sugar in the spice rub ensures picture-perfect grill marks with layers of flavor.
Beef Stroganoff Ramen
This traditional dish of beef, sour cream, and mustard may have originated in Russia, but it’s about time for a version with ramen noodles, don’t you think?
Fufu
Fufu is a dish that has been passed down through many generations and is seen as a symbol of Ghanaian identity and heritage. Making fufu traditionally is a very laborious task; this recipe mimics some of that hard work but with a few home-cook hacks that make for a far easier time.
Sofrito Bolognese
An ex-boyfriend’s mom—who emigrated from Colombia—made the best meat sauce—she would fry sofrito for the base and simply add cooked ground beef, sazón, and jarred tomato sauce. My version is a bit more bougie—it calls for caramelized tomato paste and white wine—but the result is just as good.
Chicken Croquettes
Rather than breaded and fried as you might expect croquettes to be, these are something more akin to a seared chicken salad patty.
