Autumn is well underway, and with the change in season come warming recipes for soups, curries and stews. It’s the time for cosy cooking and we have plenty of popular autumn recipes to keep you warm and satiated, from fragrant chicken noodle soups to rendang curry to a hearty ham hock soup to boot. Other popular comforting dishes include our 12-hour slow-cooked lamb shoulder and eggplant parmigiana, which took the top spot in our best autumn recipes this year.

Of course, baking becomes more enticing as the temperature drops. The noteworthy desserts that made the popularity cut include a soul-warming lemon delicious pudding and, more surprisingly, our Eton mess recipe. Plus three cult-favourite cake recipes from Black Star Pastry and Flour and Stone.  

It’s time to get cooking. Here are our most popular autumn recipes this year.
