5. Herbed pork fillet with roast vegetables

If your idea for the perfect roast is perfectly seasoned pork with plenty of veg, this one's for you. Our herbed pork fillet is healthy, hearty and will feed even the fussiest family of four. Throw in a Bramley apple towards the end of roasting for a touch of fruity sweetness and a classic ingredient pairing. Spoon the pan juices over the top for an extra helping of flavour.

6. Rosemary roast lamb chops

Our one-pan lamb chops make light work of a potentially time-consuming roast. All that's required is some assembling in the tray, then you can let the oven do the work. We love the classic Mediterranean flavours and the fact that this recipe needs just a handful of ingredients to make. Your tatties will soak up all the juices from the meat and the balsamic vinegar for even more bursts of flavour.

10. Roasted root veg traybake

Our roasted root traybake is an easy veggie option with feta, pine nuts and a light lemon and herb dressing, and it can easily be made vegan by leaving out the feta. Nestle your veg in the tray surrounded by herbs with a drizzle of olive oil, et voila!
