Roast beetroot and cheese pasta

Beetroot is a great natural food colouring. If you use fresh ones, keep the peelings and put them in a bag in the freezer to save them for later, then pop them into a pan of pasta water or a risotto to turn it pink! Great for kids parties, or just because well, who wouldnt fancy a bowl of Barbie-pink risotto every now and again? The eagle-eyed among you will have spotted that this is a pasta recipe, not a risotto unlike me to get distracted

Serves 2

250g beetroot, fresh or vacuum-packed

2 tablespoons oil, sunflower or groundnut

1 tablespoon runny honey

a pinch of salt

a pinch of dried chilli flakes

1 onion

150g spaghetti or penne pasta

100g soft cream cheese

100g hard, strong cheese

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/gas 4.

Peel and cut the beetroot into small chunks. Place in a roasting dish or, to cook on the hob, in a shallow non-stick pan. Mix together the oil and honey, add a pinch of salt and the chilli flakes, stir and pour over the beetroot. Peel and cut the onion into larger chunks. Add it to the dish, or pan, and stir everything together to distribute the oil and honey mixture evenly. Roast for 40 minutes until the beetroot is soft and the edges charred. (If you are using vacuum-packed beetroot, reduce the cooking time by half.) If cooking on the hob, saut over a medium heat for around 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, bring a pan of water to the boil and cook the pasta according to the packet instructions, usually around 810 minutes.

When the veg is ready, tip it into a blender with any residual honey and oil. Add the cream cheese and a tablespoon or two of the pasta cooking water to loosen, then blitz to an amazingly bright pink pure. Grate the hard, strong cheese.

Drain and rinse the pasta, then toss the sauce through it.

To serve, top with the grated cheese.

Oat-battered kippers with beetroot mash

Growing up beside the sea makes battered fish a rite of passage from my childhood, as far back as I can remember. Here is my grown-up take on it for a speedy supper. Ive left the crunchy coating plain, but chilli or black pepper will add a bit of heat, or scatter in some finely chopped parsley for a light, fresh flavour.
