Frequently asked questions
What counts as a main course?
Hearty, filling food that forms the core of lunch or dinner — roasted and braised meat, pasta, risotto, bakes, and meat-free options. The main event you actually fill up on.
What can I cook quickly on a weeknight?
Reach for pasta, risotto, a simple chicken dish, or a bake — plenty of mains are ready in half an hour. Every recipe shows its prep time.
Do you have meat-free mains?
Absolutely. You'll find vegetarian and vegan options — legumes, vegetables, pasta, and bakes that fill you up just like meat does.
What should I cook for Sunday lunch?
Classics worth taking your time over — svíčková, roast duck, schnitzel, or a slow braise. Do most of the prep on Saturday, and on Sunday just finish it in the oven and sort the sides.
Can mains be cooked ahead in batches?
Stews, braises, and sauces taste even better the next day and freeze beautifully. Double the batch and you've got dinners for days without extra time at the stove.
