From the team
When we’re in the mood for slow cooks and roasts at this time of year, it often means one set of cooking serves two meals (or three). Our Monday Night quesadillas from Bite magazine use leftover roast meat, and nothing beats a sandwich of cold roast, pickles and salad leaves. But when you want to make more of a meal, we’ve got a great collection of ‘cook it once-eat it twice’ leftover dishes'. Stir leftover vege into a quiche or frittata, turn mashed potatoes or kumara into spicy fish cakes, a fried hash or potato scones, or turn leftover stew into a more-ish pie or hot pot. And you can’t go past Annabel White’s aptly named bottom of the fridge pasta – way better than it sounds, we promise.
