This easy Asian slaw is one of my favourite Thai-inspired side dishes. It's fresh, colourful, crunchy and takes just minutes to put together. The combination of red cabbage, carrot and onion creates a salad that's packed with texture, while the simple dressing of sesame oil, soy, lime and rice vinegar adds plenty of flavour without overwhelming the vegetables. I often serve this alongside grilled chicken, salmon, burgers, prawns or Asian-inspired dishes, but it's equally good

Traditional Northern German potato salad with creamy mayonnaise, pickled cucumber and new potatoes. Perfect for picnics and summer meals.
