I'm not sure I really know what a pot roast is

Its basically a one pot roasted meal, or joint of meat. Delias got some smashing recipes. I love the chicken baked with 30 garlic cloves recipe. Its really something special.

This is absolutely delicious, looks impsressive and is easily transportable. I also add butternut squash half an hour before the end.

My suggestions would be beef bourginon or coq au vin with a potato boulongere ( they both then just need to be reheated).

For something different I'd do the above suggestion of Greek lamb and orzo, a lamb kleftiko with mini red potatoes or a pasticcio.

Hi OP,
How about a tray bake type thing? Similar to fish idea at top of thread, but you could try these variations -
I do one with chicken joints, onions, chunks of potatoes, garlic, a drizzle of olive oil and the juice of a couple of lemons. Season well, throw in a lemon cut into wedges too and strew with thyme if you like it. Bake in a hot oven until chicken is well cooked and potatoes are crunchy.
Another is sausages, chunks of potato, red and yellow peppers, onions, courgettes/aubergines/squash if you like them - drizzle with a little olive oil, garlic and seasoning. Bake as above.
You could also do pork chops with a layered potato thing - slice potatoes thinly, layer into roasting tin with onion if you like, pour some wine/stock/water over, plonk a chop per person on top then season and bake for about an hour until chops are done and potatoes tender.
Or onion, bacon and potato hotpot...alternate layers of thinly sliced potato, onion and snipped up bacon to fill a casserole dish. Pour white sauce over the lot. Put cheese on top or in the white sauce if you like. Cover with lid or foil and bake for two hours, uncover after an hour and serve with frozen peas or something else easy. Delicious, cheap and filling.

I knew i would get loads of great ideas from this board, and those people who linked to the goodfood website, what a great resource! I'm not sure how i have never come across it before but i dont think I will be getting the early night I hoped for + I'm feeling really hungry!

Could do Paella or BBC Good Food has a nice recipe for chicken and chorizo jambalaya. I've done that one for a party before and it went down a storm!

I know, it's totally addictive, they have some delicious recipes and the reviews at the bottom are useful. Not very MSE but I subscribe to the magazine too

yes, the reviews are my favourite feature, they are making me want to cook everything

Morrocan Chicken done in the slow cooker would be dead simple and you can serve it with cous couse which must be the easiest thing in the world to make.


Either that i would be tempted to do a chilli con carnie and take a bag of wraps with a tub or sour cream ........i love chilli in a wrap with sour cream...one of my all time fav meals

My favourites are the pork and cider and spring chicken ones,

Great choice!
