A riff on the British Sunday roast, this Eastern Mediterranean roast lamb is served with autumnal veggies and spätzle dressed in the fresh flavours of spinach, feta and parsley. It's a nod to the food culture that Turkish immigrants brought with them to Germany. But, don't let the highfalutin concept get in the way: it's a delicious meal and, importantly a slow-cooked treat that won't stress out whoever is cooking the Sunday roast.

Caraway seed and bitter orange marmalade poussin served with spätzle and braised white cabbage. An old German family recipe.

A Namibian German recipe for duck with kumquats served with spätzle with beetroot and horseradish. It's incredibly easy to cook. All it takes are good quality ingredients and a little patience to end up with a restaurant-quality dish.

An incredibly quick and easy dish, sausage with tangy fruit sauce, is my nod to some of the Baltic flavours I love without in any way...

Zero-fat seared tuna with spätzle with mushrooms and butternut squash and a simple side dish of steamed tenderstem broccoli
