Cook restaurant quality meals!

Each box comes with 4 recipe kits and 4 step-by-step recipe cards.

Following the recipes, you combine the kits with 4-6 items from your fridge or cupboard.

Then in just 20 minutes  you'll be enjoying a delicious meal for 2-4 people.

First from this box I cooked the Spicy Sausage & Leek Pasta. In this kit you get Garlic Paste, Gochujang and Yasai Seasoning.

I love this dish, the favours always work really well together and it has a slight sweetness to it that works perfectly with the slight kick of the Gochujang. I always enjoy it whenever we have it.

Next from this box I cooked the Sticky Bangers 'N' Mash. In this kit you get Paprika Colcannon Mix, Smoky Chilli Glaze and Smoky Date Sauce.

We've had this dish a few times now and I always keep the mash plain and don't mix it with the cabbage or the Paprika Colcannon Mix. The first time we had this we weren't a fan of the mash, so we keep it to what we like. I definitely think the recipe has changed as we weren't really a fan of it all the first time, now it always tastes delicious.

Next from this box I cooked the Greek Chicken Gyros. In this kit you get Gyros Blend, Fries Seasoning and Mint & Garlic Sauce.

This is another dish we always enjoy. Skye has hers plain as you can see from the pictures as she's still a little picky when it comes to food like this, but I have everything and think it really adds to all the flavours. I don't tend to use much of the fries seasoning as for me the flavours get a little too much and not to my tastes. But I do give it a try each time we have this dish.

Lastly from this box I cooked the Black Bean Chicken. In this kit you get Black Bean Paste, Chilli Garlic Sauce and Fried Rice Seasoning.

I don't think we've had this dish since, the flavours were okay an worked well together but I can't say it's one of our favourites. I do cook more egg fried rice though.

Each box is £11.78 or £9.99 if you click ship now, with your first box being a trial price of £3.

Then in just 20 minutes  you'll be enjoying a delicious meal for 2-4 people.

First from this box I cooked the Chicken Katsu Curry. In this kit you get Pickled Salad Mix, Katsu Curry Paste and Gochujang Sauce.

We love this dish and have it regularly. It's probably one of the dishes we've had the most so I try and make sure I try new dishes before heading back to this one.

We enjoy it every time we have it, I still think it's better than some others we've had.

Next from this box I cooked the Indian Masala Lamb Chops. In this kit you get Masala Paste, Spice Blend and Mint Chutney.

This is another dish we have a lot, I feel like this dish is always full of flavour and is a real treat.

Next from this box I cooked the Penne Alla Rustica. In this kit you get Garlic & Rosemary Mix, Rustica Paste and Red Pepper Sprinkle.

Skye doesn't eat this with plain pasta anymore, she has it all mixed together like I do. The flavours work really well together, I love the Chorizo with the tomatoes and pasta.

Lastly from this box I cooked the Baja Fish Tacos. In this kit you get Baja Blend, Salsa Bandera Seasoning and Habanero Hot Sauce.

Heat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas Mark 6.

Bake the fish.

Make the fillings

Warm the tortillas.

Assemble your tacos.

Serve!

I don't know if it's because I used frozen fish rather than chilled, but this wasn't really a dish for us. The flavours were okay, but it wasn't something I would rush to have again.

Now let me get to the business side of the Simply Cook boxes, each box comes with 4 recipe kits which include 3 pots of sauces, herb, stock etc, as well as 4 step-by-step recipe cards, that contain the full list of ingredients you'll need, and alternatives etc.

You can choose which dishes you would like in your box, or you can leave it to the Simply Cook gang and let them randomly pick your dishes to enjoy. You can set your preferences whether you're wanting something mild to spicy, something family friendly, there's recipes from all around the world.

You can choose how often you would like your boxes, whether that would be weekly, fortnightly, or even every 4 weeks. You can also change, pause or even cancel your subscription at any time.

Each box is £11.78 or £9.99 if you click ship now, with your first box being a trial price of £3.

Garlic Bread Mac & Cheese

I can't remember how I came across this recipe, but I'm sure it will have been while I was hunting for something to make with what we already had at home.

Let's get cooking!

Ingredients:

1 pint whole milk

650 ml vegetable stock

1 tbsp garlic granules

3 sprigs thyme

3 garlic cloves

2 tbsp English mustard

2 bay leaves

400g fusilli

150g grated cheddar

1 garlic baguette

100g grated mozzarella

Add the milk, stock, garlic granules, thyme, whole unpeeled garlic cloves and mustard to a blender. Blend until smooth. My blender was a little too full and I ended up with some of the mixture over my worktop as it all seemed to explode out.

Next add the pasta to a large pan and strain the milk mixture into the pan with the pasta.

Add the bay leaves and season with salt and black pepper.

Turn the heat up to medium-high, bring to the boil, the reduce the heat to medium. Cook the pasta, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is al dente and the sauce has thickened.

Next turn on the grill to high and grate your cheddar.

Tear or cut the baguette into bite-sized chunks.

Once your pasta is cooked, stir through the cheddar .

Scatter over the mozzarella and baguette chunks.

Place under the grill until golden and crispy.

The you're ready to serve

I left mine under the grill too long as my garlic bread was burnt, but all the flavours were there. It was really delicious.

The recipe was really easy to follow and it was really quick to make. It's the perfect recipe for any novice cook.

I'll happily make this again as it was full of flavour, but I'd have it under the grill a little less next time.

I'd love to check out the other recipes from this website to see if there is anything else I can make.

If you're interested in following the original recipe, then head over to the mob website onto the Garlic Bread Mac & Cheese recipe page

See you soon!
