Inside our minimal ingredient range

Strip back your store cupboard and fridge with our new range of everyday essentials. From simple sauces to fluffy white rolls, this must-try range keeps it to minimal store cupboard ingredients, so you always know what’s inside. And because it’s M&S, everything still tastes delicious.

“Imagine making your favourite everyday food at home, with ingredients you recognise and trust,” says Kathryn Turner, Director of Product Development. “That’s exactly what we’ve done with our Only Ingredients range. Our customers have loved it so much that we’ve extended the range and will keep building it.

“From tomato ketchup and olive oil mayonnaise to three-ingredient meatballs, sliced white toasting bread and bran flakes, we’ve worked hard to strip recipes right back while keeping the same familiar, comforting flavours you love.”

Our Only 3 Ingredients British Beef Meatballs and Beef Burgers are made with simple, quality ingredients – nothing more, nothing less. Using only British beef, sea salt and cracked black pepper, they’re perfectly seasoned, tender and juicy.

Try the meatballs in an easy traybake: Toss with chunks of potatoes and strips of sweet red pepper, then roast until golden and sizzling. Finish with a tahini drizzle and a fresh tomato salad for a hearty, one-tray dinner.

Available fresh (in store from 7 January) or frozen (in store from 5 January), these easy staples make midweek dinners or weekend barbecues effortlessly delicious.
