Tom Kerridge, Mary Berry and Ainsley Harriot share their recipes for the perfect summer lunch

Big Lunch: last year’s party in New Cross, London - (Eden Project)

Summer has arrived. It’s time to dig out your barbecue tongs, slip on your Birkenstocks and harvest your tomatoes. Prepare the outside seating, dust down the table tennis table. Slice courgettes at a beautiful angle and dress them with olive oil, lemon and a little chopped parsley.

Much more besides. For it is picnic season, time for barbecues; these lovely months are built for pleasure and so pleasure is what you must have. Some might need a little inspiration. Sure, we can absolutely flip burgers and roll sausages onto the grill. But those who are entertaining might want to mix things up a touch.
