Barbecues aren't just about meaty mains and veggie skewers. Our show-stealing sides are so easy to make and only require three ingredients, making them the perfect solution to spontaneous, sunshine-grabbing barbecues.
1. Cook 750g new potatoes in a large saucepan of boiling salted water for 20 minutes. Drain well and allow to cool a little.
2. Place the potatoes on a chopping board and squash them down with the base of a large saucepan (or with the flat of a kitchen knife). Transfer to a large serving platter.
3. Scatter 150g cherry tomatoes, some halved and some whole, over the salad. Drizzle with 75g fresh green pesto and serve warm or at room temperature.
Calories 237 (12%), sugar 3.5g (4%), fat 9.6g (14%), saturates 1.3g (7%), salt 0.25g (4%), based on 4 servings.
1. Cook 1 large cauliflower in a large saucepan of boiling salted water for 6 minutes.
2. Drain 1 x 285g jar of roasted peppers antipasti, reserving the oil. In a bowl, mix 2 tbsp of the reserved oil and 1 tbsp warm water with 100g houmous.
3. Drain the cauliflower and arrange on a platter, scatter over the roasted peppers and drizzle over the houmous mixture, adding an optional sprinkle of crushed chilli to serve. Serve at room temperature.

1. Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. In a large bowl, mix 2 sliced aubergines with 1 x 190g jar sundried tomato paste, until the aubergine is well coated. You can even prepare this several hours before cooking, as the paste will prevent the aubergine from discolouring.
2. Arrange in one layer on a large lined baking tray and roast for 25 minutes.
3. Transfer to a serving platter and scatter over 25g Parmesan shavings. Serve at room temperature.
