You can have a batch of scones on the table in 20 minutes with Jane Hornby's storecupboard recipe, perfect for unexpected guests

Classic scones with jam &amp; clotted cream

flour,plus

tsp baking powder

butter,cut into cubes

tbsp caster sugar

milk

tsp vanilla extract

lemon juice (see tips below)

egg,to glaze

jam and clotted cream,to serve

Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Tip the self-raising flour into a large bowl with ¼ tsp salt and the baking powder, then mix.

Add the butter, then rub in with your fingers until the mix looks like fine crumbs. Stir in the caster sugar.

Put the milk into a jug and heat in the microwave for about 30 secs until warm, but not hot. Add the vanilla extract and a squeeze of lemon juice, then set aside for a moment.

Put a <a href="https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/content/kimberley-wilsons-top-5-baking-trays">baking tray</a> in the oven. Make a well in the dry mix, then add the liquid and combine it quickly with a cutlery knife – it will seem pretty wet at first.

Scatter some flour onto the work surface and tip the dough out. Dredge the dough and your hands with a little more flour, then fold the dough over 2-3 times until it’s a little smoother. Pat into a round about 4cm deep. Take a 5cm <a href="https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/howto/guide/baking-equipment">cutter</a> (smooth-edged cutters tend to cut more cleanly, giving a better rise) and dip it into some flour. Plunge into the dough, then repeat until you have four scones. You may need to press what’s left of the dough back into a round to cut out another four.

<a href="https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/content/test-best-pastry-brushes">Brush</a> the tops with a beaten egg, then carefully arrange on the hot baking tray. Bake for 10 mins until risen and golden on the top. Eat just warm or cold on the day of baking, generously topped with jam and clotted cream. If freezing, freeze once cool. Defrost, then put in a low oven (about 160C/140C fan/gas 3) for a few minutes to refresh.

Low in fat, high in iron and vitamin C, and 3 of your 5-a-day, this is just about the perfect healthy stir fry

Sticky green stir-fry with beef

sirloin steaks, trimmed of fat and thinly sliced

broccoli

garlic

sugar snap peas

spring onions

pak choi

Heat the oil in a large wok or deep frying pan, then sizzle the beef strips for 3-4 mins until browned. Remove and set aside.

Toss the broccoli and garlic into the wok with a splash of water, then fry over a high heat for 4-5 mins until starting to soften. Add the peas, spring onions and pak choi, then stir-fry for another 2-3 mins, then stir in the hoisin sauce and beef. Heat through quickly, adding a splash of water if it seems a little dry. Great with noodles or rice.

Vegan Tortilla Chips

corn tortillas

lime juice (approx. 1 large lime)

sea salt

garlic powder (optional)

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.

Stack the corn tortillas in an even pile on a cutting board. Then use a pizza cutter to slice them into four quarters. (If using larger wraps, slice into six pieces instead.)

salt

water

Thai sweet chili sauce

soy sauce

rice vinegar

sesame oil

Add about an inch of water to a pot with a steamer basket and bring to a light boil.

In the meantime, whisk together the vital wheat gluten, flour, vegetable broth powder, onion powder, garlic powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Pour in the water and mix to form a ball of dough. Lightly grease the steamer basket, then tear off bite-sized pieces of the seitan dough and place them in a single layer in the steamer basket. Cover, and steam the seitan for 10 minutes.

In the meantime, in a small bowl or a measuring glass, mix together the Thai sweet chili sauce, hoisin, soy sauce, water, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Set aside. (See notes for other sauce options).

When the seitan is done steaming, heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet or non-stick pan. Use tongs to remove the seitan bites from the steamer basket, and place them into the hot oil in the pan. Be careful as it may splatter. Cook the seitan bites a few minutes per side until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove from the heat and add the sauce and toss to coat. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds if desired and serve hot.
