My recent trip to Italy inspired me to share a couple of pasta dishes and also to give the crockpot a final spin before we hit barbecue season. The spaghetti dish is so simple and takes no time at all to throw together, yet it’s rewarding with its super punchy flavours. The beef cheek ragu over pappardelle is also a simple dish and so comforting. Use the ragu leftovers (if any) in a pie or freeze to use another day.

For that 5 per cent magic add ½ tsp green peppercorns for a little something extra just to spice it up.
