  • Tofu with asparagus & olive dressing

    Tofu with asparagus & olive dressing

    This is my favourite way to eat tofu – dusted in chickpea flour and pan fried for a perfectly even golden crust. With asparagus and an olive and sundried tomato dressing. Sure to convince even the tofu-sceptics.

  • Confit chickpeas, tomatoes & garlic

    Confit chickpeas, tomatoes & garlic

    There’s so much flavour imparted from the slow cook in a bath of olive oil with garlic and rosemary. The tomatoes are bursting and juicy, while the chickpeas stay beautifully firm and almost fudgy in texture. It’s extremely hands-off and simple to make but really elevates a meal.

  • Individual asparagus tarts

    Individual asparagus tarts

    Such a fun way to serve asparagus during peak season. The tart cases are made with pre-rolled puff pastry for a really easygoing but impressive recipe. Filled with a minty whipped ricotta and topped with perfectly crisp asparagus.

    Veggie Roast Dinner

    A really simple plate, perfect for sunny days. The asparagus and halloumi are grilled and drizzled in an olive and sun-dried tomato dressing. A little touch of honey in the dressing really offsets the salty cheese. The salad can be made with a griddle pan or on the barbecue, weather…

  • Easy homemade ricotta & flatbread

    Easy homemade ricotta & flatbread

    You can make ricotta at home so easily with just milk, lemon juice and a pinch of salt. It tastes even better than store-bought, with a really fresh and delicate milky flavour. And there’s no need to waste the leftover whey – the protein rich liquid left behind after making…

  • Pea and broad bean pesto pasta

    Pea and broad bean pesto pasta

    Hard to beat for an easy pea-sy midweek meal. It’s so fresh and springy, but you can absolutely use frozen veggies to keep things even simpler. This is sure to make it into your regular rotation.

  • Fried goat’s cheese spring salad

    Fried goat’s cheese spring salad

    A nostalgic favourite jazzed up for spring. A salad that always hits the spot.
