"A hit of vitamin D before the summer wardrobe is put away for another year, and I am ready to fully embrace autumn and winter hermit mode. I've always felt that September is the perfect time to escape to the Mediterranean for a last-minute injection of sun and, in this instance, to indulge in pasta, gelato and a healthy side of aperitivo."
"Because I have to cook a million meals before I go, I have prepared the family Rachel Roddy's chicken thighs with cherry tomatoes and a green bean, lettuce and parmesan salad for a meal I know they all will devour. I've also made Felicity Cloake's raspberry panna cotta with the haul we harvested from our local pick-your-own farm, a recipe she confirms also works with overripe or crushed berries that aren't quite in top shape."
"I rely on classics such as Anna Del Conte's bucatini all'amatriciana (pictured top) and Georgia Levy's broccoli and anchovy farfalle to get us through a busy week.

Packing for a trip to Sicily in September aims to grab a last hit of sun before embracing autumn and winter hermit mode. Meals have been prepped to sustain the household during the getaway, including Rachel Roddy's chicken thighs with cherry tomatoes and a green bean, lettuce and parmesan salad; Felicity Cloake's raspberry panna cotta made from pick-your-own berries; and Rachel's courgette, goat's cheese and lemon risotto. Plans for post-trip indulgence include extra pasta, miniature cannoli with afternoon espresso, Anna Del Conte's bucatini all'amatriciana, Georgia Levy's broccoli and anchovy farfalle, and Yotam Ottolenghi's pasta alla norma.
