Here, I cook pasta much as I would if I were making a traditional risotto. But there is a difference — that you don't have to stir constantly and that the pasta takes only 10 minutes to cook are obvious benefits to the harried midweek cook. I love the rice-shaped pasta that is orzo — it oozes its starchiness out into the sauce and — what's more — you need only the one pan. I advise that the pan be heavy-based: a small enamelled cast-iron casserole would be perfect although often as not I use a thick-bottomed saucepan. Please note that the amount of water specified is a starting point only: you may need to add more if the pasta's absorbed all the water before it's cooked.

Pea, Mint and Avocado Salad
In How to Eat I wrote about my Great Aunt Myra’s Pea, Mint and Avocado Salad, which we all considered rather fabulously exotic when she came up with it in the Seventies. I’ve tinkered with it over the many years since, and this – give or take – is the version I make now, and I make it often. When I say “give or take”, it’s simply because I don’t always use the same mix of salad leaves (though I do like it to include a few curling pea shoots if possible) and don’t expect you to either; I’ve given rough amounts in the recipe so you have an idea of how much is needed, but even then, you can freestyle as wished. While there’s nothing to stop you adding some cold chicken, prawns, feta or goat’s cheese to turn it into a main meal, I generally serve it as a side salad, though when I wrote about it all those years ago, it was, indeed, as a starter. I’ve utterly given up on starters since then. By the way, I find it very much easier to get the peas-a-steeping in the dressing in advance and then add the leaves and avocado at the last minute. I should add that the beauteous salad in this picture is actually still waiting for a final toss with the last bit of dressing in the mixing bowl: I didn’t want the leaves to wilt while it waited for its close-up!
Linguine With Mushrooms, Lemon, Garlic and Thyme
This is one of my proudest creations and, I suppose, a good example of a recipe that isn't originally from Italy, but sits uncontroversially in her culinary canon. I don't think it would be too presumptuous to name this linguine ai funghi crudi. It is about as speedy as you can imagine: you do no more to the mushrooms than slice them, steep them in oil, garlic, lemon and thyme and toss them into the hot cooked pasta. And please read the Additional Information section at the end of the recipe before proceeding.

Tiramisini
Some say, challenging more generally accepted ideas about the provenance, that tiramisu was invented in a casa chiusa (a house of ill repute) to give the working girls a pick-me-up, as the name (tira-mi-su) suggests. Whatever its inception, this one reverts to the original formulation - although in dinkier format. This is not because I am a huge fan of the cute — you know that — but because it means you have a tiramisu worth making for fewer people (you don't need a partyful), and in less time. By which I mean very much less time, since, unlike the big, trifle-style tiramisu, these tiramisini — think coffee-soaked Savoiardi sponge fingers, topped with the familiar, whipped Marsala-spiked mascarpone in small-portioned martini glasses — don't even need to sit overnight before being ready to eat. And please read the Additional Information section at the end of the recipe before proceeding.

This pumpkin ricotta pasta is a simple and comforting vegetarian fall pasta recipe with a creamy sauce made with roasted pumpkin and ricotta.
Burnt Onion and Aubergine Dip
I get many requests for this decidedly brown dip of silky savouriness, the first recipe in my chapter A Loving Defence of Brown Food in Cook, Eat, Repeat, so creamy that you would never guess it’s actually dairy-free and, indeed, vegan. True, anyone in the habit of changing nappies regularly might not find it the most appetising of sights, but one taste of it — full of rich, deep smokiness — and even those not immediately attracted come back for more. I’ve called it a dip, but actually it lends itself as well to a spread on toast or a sauce for pasta; in this latter case, you’ll need to mix in some of the starchy pasta water when you toss the pasta with it, and I like to add some chilli flakes and a little extra squeeze of lemon, too. But as a dip, it is luscious, and if I have a lot of people round, I serve the Beetroot and Chickpea Dip and the Coriander and Jalapeño Salsa alongside; the pink, green and muted ochre like tonally-tinkered-with traffic lights on the table. But it’s a sensational solo act, so there is no need to add anything alongside save for some tortilla chips (if you can get blue corn ones, I urge you to) or whatever else you want to dip into it. If you don't have a baking tray large enough for all the aubergines and onions and need to use two, then be prepared for the cooking time to be longer, and swap the trays around in the oven after about 40 minutes. And if at all possible, I recommend using 3 aubergines as stipulated below, rather than say 2 that come to the same total weight. Obviously, if that choice isn't open to you, it does work with 2, but you will need to cut them into long quarters.

Mutter paneer
Mutter paneer is a traditional north Indian curry. The texture of fresh peas stands up well against the paneer, but frozen is fine too. This can be ready in just 30 minutes, and you won't feel like you're missing out, even though it's veggie. Serve it as a side curry with some naan or rice.

Unrestrained, raw technological possibilities are scary. That it is why it is the duty of the corporation to package, sanitise, file down and finish with a coat of beige (or the current Pantone colour of the year, if we’re being extra fruity), lest “users” hold them in the wrong way.
