About The Sunday Pot
Slow, generous home cooking from around the world, explained simply.
The Sunday Pot is an English-language recipe site devoted to slow, generous home cooking from around the world: braises, roasts, soups and bakes worth a Sunday.

Our goal is simple: that you can cook these dishes at home and get them right the first time.
