Recipe box Gousto is launching an ovenless Sunday Roast following research that shows a quarter of people are less likely to prepare a Sunday roast with nearly a fifth no longer using their oven at all due to the rising cost of energy. Taking just 30 minutes to make, the Gousto recipe is cooked entirely on the hob.
Crispy potatoes are achieved in this recipe by boiling the potatoes, fluffing them up in a colander, and then pan frying. This comes as part of Gousto’s new ‘Oven-free’ collection which will see nearly half of Gousto’s weekly menu rely on alternative cooking methods such as the slow cooker, microwave, hob and toaster, helping home cooks make more energy-efficient choices for their mealtimes.
Kathryn Huxtable, VP Food Proposition at Gousto said: “We know lots of households are looking for more energy-efficient ways to enjoy their favourite foods without having to compromise on taste and quality. Thanks to our expert chefs, we hope to make this a little easier for people with recipes they know and love, like the classic Sunday Roast, but without needing to turn on the oven.
