If you absolutely must have your mash silky smooth or your roasties bare, you can still make tasty use of the peelings. “Peel them off and chop them really small, then fry them in oil, garlic, salt and pepper, and then they’re kind of like croutons or crisps.

Pour over the gravy and serve with lemon wedges, as above. Juicing can play a role in a balanced diet. For instance, it can help you get fruits and vegetables if you don't enjoy eating them.

Don’t get me wrong, the summer is dreamy, but with its crisp morning air, beautiful warmth in the daytime and a cosy chill at night, this time of year has a certain kind of magic. I always look forward to the structure autumn brings and the exciting sense of new adventures.
