“Our new app, ‘On a plate’, is an exciting development for uChef. It’s fantastic to have this opportunity to share with others our passion and enthusiasm for good food made simply.” says Guy Morris, founder of uChef. “Our philosophy is to encourage creative and confident cooking, through the use of simple but clever techniques.”

‘On a plate’ visually presents recipes, showing clearly the ingredients, stages, and techniques required. In particular, this app promotes the use of ‘elements’, which are the building blocks that form the basis of many of the appetising recipes. Once these ‘elements’ are mastered, the cook’s list of delicious meals quickly increases. Best of all, the majority of ‘elements’ are suitable for making in advance, in bulk – often frozen – until they are needed. This approach helps cooks to regularly make delicious restaurant-quality meals in their own home.

“I want to give others the knowledge to allow them to do what they want in the kitchen; to be confident and experiment using the ingredients that they have got in the cupboard,” enthuses Guy. “I am sure that ‘On a plate’ will become a useful reference as the cook gains skills and confidence through using this approach.”

The recipes range from simple ones such as chicken liver pate and lemon posset, to complex dishes with more levels and options, such as lamb shoulder madras. Guy suggests that the perfect place to start would be the tomato sauce ‘element’. Once created, this sauce forms the base of many more recipes, such as bolognaise, chilli con carne, slow cooked beef, chicken madras, lamb shoulder madras, which is an ideal example of the clever techniques behind ‘On a plate’.

“My favourites are the curries, as they are packed with flavour, and the ‘elements’ freeze really well.” comments Guy. “Much better to make your own frozen ready meals, so you know what goes into them. ‘On a plate’ enables you to make tasty home cooked meals more times a week!”
