Le Creuset Recipes: Braised Ribs

Ribs are always a BBQ favourite in summer, but if you don’t fancy slaving away over the BBQ when you could be catching up with friends in the sunshine, why not try out this easy peasy recipe for braised ribs?

Braising is traditionally more of a winter cooking technique but embrace the ease of slow cooking in summer and save yourself the effort of digging the BBQ out!

We love this recipe on Epicurious, but instead of serving with added sauce and mashed potatoes, serve with sweet potato wedges and salad, the perfect summer treat.

Shop from a range of Le Creuset dishes at The Hut, we recommend the Shallow Rectangular dish, perfect for cooking and serving.

Le Creuset Recipes: Cassoulet

The summer alternative to the casserole, a cassoulet is traditionally made with sausages, chicken, vegetables and beans. Simple to make and can simmer for hours, it’s the ideal recipe to make for an evening dinner with friends in the summer months, plus it only take 15 minutes to prepare!

Choose sausages with a high meat content, remove the chick skin and keep the oil to a minimum to keep this dish light. It is delicious served with crusty bread and butter, people will keep coming back for more. Try out this Cassoulet recipe and indulge this summer.

Le Creuset Recipes: Paella

A traditional Spanish dish that is made to be eaten by the beach, it tastes like Mediterranean summer with the spicy taste, perfectly cooked rice and mixed seafood. It’s also a great option for vegetarians as you can make it with meat, seafood or vegetables.

To give you a taste of the Mediterranean, try this amazing paella recipe by Danielle Walker, it makes a great lunch for family or evening dinner with friends.

The Le Creuset Cast Iron Wok is an ideal dish for this recipe, plus the classic orange shade will look great with the bright colours of the paella!
