You lot love a good Yorkshire pud – and we can’t blame you! This classic recipe came out on top, but we’re also obsessed with Jamie’s latest recipe – a giant Yorkie with smoked trout pâté and red cabbage slaw. Yum.

One of Jamie’s best roast lamb recipes – this is a real seasonal treat. Lamb is marinated in garlic, rosemary and lemon, then roasted to perfection and drizzled with proper homemade mint sauce. A joy.

A fantastic carbonara from the don of Italian cooking himself. Creamy, salty and surprisingly simple to throw together, this is a hug in a bowl. Keep it traditional with spaghetti, or mix it up with whatever pasta you’ve already got – bucatini or rigatoni work a treat.

Best flavour friends gochujang and sesame team up to create an epic traybake that hits the spot every time. We’re talking gnarly cabbage, perfectly cooked chicken thighs and a mixture of crispy and soft noodles – go on then!

Jamie’s iconic chicken in a bag recipe, reimagined in the air fryer – yes please!

And feel free to flex the veg as you see fit – check out the Top Tip for inspo.

Big up lots of lovely veg in this batch-cook beauty. We’re heroing sweet potatoes and peppers, but use up whatever you’ve already got in the veg drawer – think butternut squash, carrots, tomatoes or leeks.
