Have you ever wondered what the royal family eat for dinner? Is it really all long dining tables with silver platters and butlers attending to their every foodie desire?

Well, we're pleased to learn that in reality, the royals' suppers are much like our own - and for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, family dinnertimes are all about hearty meals together. Mum-of-three Kate is known to enjoy cooking, and roasts are popular in the Cambridge household.

Royal correspondent Katie Nicholl told Vanity Fair in 2012: "In the evenings she [Kate] indulges her hobby of cooking William’s favourite supper, roast chicken."

However, while Kate likes to eat meat and fish on occasion, her diet is believed to be largely vegetarian.

During the couple's royal tour of India, Chef Raghu Deora - who was charged with creating their meals dishes for their stay at the Taj Mahal Palace - revealed that he served up a lunch of vegetable kebabs and lentil curry for the pair. "It is all vegetarian because I was told that was what they preferred," he explained.

Macaroni cheese is a favourite of the Cambridge kids

People reported that during a visit to Lavender Primary School, Kate told Matthew Kleiner-Mann they often rustle up a comforting bowl of mac 'n' cheese.

He said: "She was telling us how much her children love cooking and how they cook for her. They made cheesy pasta the other day. One stirs the flour, one puts the milk and butter in. And they make salads and stuff."

A keen cook, the Duchess likes to make homemade pizza from scratch. During an outing to St Luke's Community Centre in London, Kate said: "I've done that with George and Charlotte – making pizza dough. They love it because they can get their hands messy."
