10 Sunday Plats Worth Making When You Have Time to Cook
Sunday cooking is for the recipes that reward a slower afternoon: a roast, a stew, a sauce that tastes better after it rests. These plats give you leftovers that actually get eaten on Monday.
Slow-Braised Beef with Carrots
Low heat turns a tough cut into something you can cut with a fork. The broth becomes the sauce, so keep the vegetables in large pieces.
Herb Roast Chicken with Pan Juices
Dry the skin, salt it early, and let the oven do the rest. The juices in the pan are the whole point of making this at home.
Baked Lasagna with a Real Bechamel
A proper white sauce keeps the layers tender instead of dry. Assemble it, then give it a rest after baking so it slices clean.
Vegetable Tagine with Warm Spices
Cumin, cinnamon, and a little heat make vegetables taste like a main course. Serve it with couscous so the sauce has somewhere to go.
