The Girls Aloud star and her partner Tom Crane moved out of London and into a house in the English countryside in 2009, and s she loves to spend her time creating culinary treats in the kitchen.

She said: "I like my food too much to be that thin. I try to keep in shape but me and Tommy love cooking. Now we`re out of London I do a lot more home cooking. Spaghetti Bolognese is my speciality. I love pasta and bread - all the wrong things unfortunately."

However, Sarah spends many evenings eating alone because Tom`s DJ career means he works nights, but the 29-year-old singer-and-actress still cooks enough for two and always finishes off the lot.

She added to Look magazine: "I try to balance out what I eat but I don`t see Tommy a lot of the time in the evenings because he`s working so I end up cooking enough for two people, then eating it all. I can`t leave it or throw it away."
