How to avoid doing the dishes
Let鈥檚 face it, one-pot meals are a life-saver during the week. Whether it鈥檚 stew, a traybake, pasta in its own sauce or risotto, a one-pot offers all the joy of eating without seemingly endless rummaging for pots and pans and then washing up. It鈥檚 a great way to make delicious food easily too: all the flavours come together during the cooking, while you put your feet up. Here are some of the best ways to cook in one pot.
1. Use one tray for pretty much everything
The classic roast can use every pan and tray in the house if you鈥檙e not careful. We reckon the one-pan roast could be the next big thing 鈥 and this one-minute video shows you how to do it.

2. Cook pasta or rice in the sauce
Pasta and rice are perfect for quick, simple family favourites. Making your own sauce is the key to deliciousness, but why use two or three pans when you could just use one? Cook your pasta or rice in the sauce you are serving it with and save the washing-up hassle!
3. From hob to oven
Investing in a single pot that can go on the hob, in the oven and under the grill can save you from using multiple pans for one meal. Try Miguel Barclay鈥檚 delicious one-pot gnocchi to see just how easy it is.
