Come the weekend,get your slow cook on with Warren Elwin's recipes for braised beef ribs and coq au vin. Try slow-roasting a leg of goat or confit some pork cheeks if you are looking for something different.
Pumpkin is still plentiful and makes for a cheery-looking weeknight pizza and Sarah O'Neil has more good news on the winter produce front - we can hopefully enjoy fresh peppers, chillies, zucchini and peas for a little longer yet.
