Canned seafood is way better quality these days, mainly thanks to the Spanish and Portuguese who were pioneers in preserving techniques. Sardines, mackerel and squid have intense fishy flavours and they're perfect to use when you want that hit of taste. And the best part... because they're straight out of a can, there is no faffing around - your meal is ready in just a few minutes.
Mitch Tonk's Rockfish is one of a handful of British companies catching sustainable fresh British seafood in the South West and preserving it. As an island nation, we have such wonderful seafood, most of which goes abroad. It's great that finally, we are keeping some of the best for ourselves!
This dish is a classic simple lunch or light supper and so easy with just four great quality ingredients, it's done in 10 minutes (the time it takes to cook the pasta) and tastes fantastic. Watch our short video here.

Cauliflower is such a great vegetable for delivering flavour with it's sweet nutty taste and firm texture, it's a perfect choice for when you want to be meat free. Roasting it with a light batter gives it a lovely crispy texture and allows you to layer up more flavour.
The tacos that you find on every Mexican street corner are often cooked really quickly - it's street food, you can't hang about. We have a recipe that will allow you to make really quick authentic tacos, that are so tasty, it will become your 'go to' meal.
