BBQ

Leela Punyaratabandhu's new cookbook, Simple Thai Food, means readers can easily recreate Thai dishes at home. (Try her pork satay, you'll love it!)

Towering, restaurant-style burgers will win over the dinner crowd any day of the week.

Who needs takeout when it's grill season? Fire up the BBQ and throw on these simple skewers, and drizzle with our miso mixture for serving.

Watermelon at dinner instead of after? What a yummy idea! We already love salads with slices of fruit such as apple or mango, and watermelon salads are even easier to make. Choose a melon that is long. It provides a good-size serving bowl for the finished creation.

Delicious with a balsamic and apricot jam marinade. Serve with an Indian mango-lentil salad and a white blend wine.
