The Sunday Pot by Clara Whitfield: a red enamel pot of chicken thighs braised with white beans, tomatoes and herbs, its lid tipped aside, a wooden spoon resting on the rim and a striped tea towel beneath, on cream.

The usual Sunday

Every pan in the house, for one meal.

An afternoon at the stove while everyone else is at the table.

And on Monday, nothing left.

There is a slower way.

How a Sunday pot works

Skip ahead

It all goes into one pot.

Then it looks after itself for the afternoon.

Every recipe says what you can do ahead.

It feeds a table of family or friends.

With leftovers for the week.
