Mamamia's lifestyle writer shares the three dinner recipes from RecipeTin Eats that she regularly makes, including the best pasta you'll ever eat.

Recipe video above. Not the fastest recipe in the world, but worth it! Rich and beautifully fragrant with the signature hint of smokiness, this mild curry is one of the most popular Thai curries ever. While many restaurants tend to tone down the spices and substantially increase the sugar, this recipe is based on authentic versions by Thai food authorities including David Thompson and Sujet Saenkham of Spice I Am. Super easy to adapt to other proteins - see notes! STORE BOUGHT CURRY PASTE…

Recipe video above. Forget skewers - THIS is how you get a satay fix! This Malaysian Chicken Satay Curry features chicken marinated in a homemade satay seasoning, simmered in a heady peanut satay sauce that's coconuty and heavily seasoned. Truly restaurant quality. Yet -simple. No hunting down unsual ingredients!Spice level: Pretty warm buzz but not that spicy. If concerned, read note 1 & 3 for how to play it safe with the chilli!Adapted from a Satay recipe by a Malaysian chef and the Satay…

Recipe video above. Vietnamese caramel sauce is a popular sweet/savoury used in Vietnamese dishes. Here, it's used for bite size chicken pieces that get coated in the glaze with a generous dose of ginger. It's quick, easy, something different and outrageously good!** NOTE: Sadly seeing reader feedback that the liquid isn't reducing and chicken isn't caramelising. Please ensure to use a LARGE PAN and be brave, simmer RAPIDLY! Else the liquid will take ages to reduce. See Note 4.**

Recipe video above. The chicken version of the beloved Aussie beef rissoles! You'll love the oozy little pockets of cheese.Makes 14 to 16 rissoles. Serves 4 to 5 as a meal, or one Dozer.

Recipe video above. This is a beefy pasta cooked with Italian seasonings in a creamy tomato sauce. Epitome of homemade comfort food with the convenience of one-pot cooking! Love how the pasta absorbs the flavour of the sauce.For more, see the full One Pot Pasta recipe collection.

Recipe video above. These days, so many carbonara recipes cheat with cream which is a shame. The traditional method uses raw egg which is mixed vigorously with hot pasta and parmigiana reggiano cheese which transforms into a silky, creamy, luxurious sauce unlike anything you've ever had before. Arguably the best pasta dish in the whole world!This is a pasta that must be eaten straight away to truly experience its magnificence. Serve in warm bowls!

Recipe video above. Everybody knows Din Tai Fung* has the best Spicy Wontons. Here's my copy-cat! Very specific mix of spices, it's less spicy, less vinegary and more savoury than typical Chinese dumpling houses, designed so you can slop up every bit of that tasty sauce with the wontons without blowing your head off! So, so, very good!* Global dumpling restaurant chain that declares itself the world's best dumplings. Many Sydney-siders would not disagree.

Recipe video above. The beef mince version of everybody's favourite Chicken Chow Mein - great way to cook up ground beef with noodles. Economical and no meat chopping required, with plenty of hidden vegetables so it's a complete dinner! Scrambling up an egg with the beef is a neat trick to make the beef cling to the noodles better.

Recipe video above. The smoked sausage is the trick here to get great flavour into this quick one pot dinner. Tastes like Jambalaya, minus the cajun flavours, and much faster to make. Everybody loves this!I used kransky sausages but you can use any smoked sausages you want, including chorizo. You can even use raw sausages - see Note 1! Also feel free to use other vegetables - anything that can hold up to 20 minutes on the stove.
