Steak au Poivre
Steaks in a pepper crust, seared and then deglazed with cognac into a cream sauce. A quarter of an hour in total, which makes it the quickest dish in the book — and one of the most demanding on timing.

Tarte Tatin
An upside-down caramelised apple tart from the Loire Valley — dark, sticky, buttery caramel beneath a blanket of tender apples and crisp, golden pastry. Simple in theory, spectacular in execution. Serve warm with crème fraîche.
