Our correspondents have been there and eaten all the pieces – might we advise you are taking their suggestions with you.

Jay Rayner has had Covid. In this month’s column he tells how he ate himself again to well being. I discover it fascinating what number of of Jay’s consolation meals match my very own (fats, carbs and extra carbs) although I used to be happy he stopped in need of Dairylea on toast which has put my world to rights since I used to be in brief trousers. We want him properly and a speedy restoration.

This month’s recipes brings some astounding curries (spinach and kale or tamarind fish) from Cynthia Shanmugalingam’s new ebook Rambutan. We even have the great Emma Willis and Dame Eileen Atkins, who’s taking consolation after her sadly cancelled stage run with Timothée Chalamet with a plate of English asparagus. This can be the ultimate name for entries for the OFM Awards, supported by M&S Food. There is simply time to get your entries in.
