What are your top three favourite dishes to make at home, and why?

A natural way to answer

My favourite would be homemade soup, because it's healthy and uses up leftover vegetables. Second, a stir-fry, since it's quick and colourful. And third, a roast dinner, which I save for special occasions because it takes a bit more effort.

Key phrases to use

• go-to — the thing you always choose or rely on“Pasta is my go-to when I'm in a hurry.”
