A delicious vegetarian supper from ” Med” by Claudia Roden. If you like it can be made in advance, but the asparagus should be cooked at the last minute.
An easy lunch or supper from Thomasina Miers which i think would also work very well with some purple sprouting broccoli. She also suggests nettles or wild garlic as alternatives to use in the spring. Serve with a green salad dressed in a sharp vinaigrette.
I’ve got a couple of Fennel Gratin recipes on this site already but this creamy cheesy version from ” Together ” by Jamie Oliver is definitely my favourite to date. And personally I think 8 is a bit optimistic unless it is seved among several other side dishes. Two of us wolfed it down alongside sausages. There were no leftovers…
A warming, hearty and seasonal gratin from Yotam Ottolenghi. You can vary the vegetables using the same total weight, but these work very well together. Cut the vegetables into 2mm thick slices, using a mandolin if you need to.
A delicious way to use courgettes which I found in ” From the Oven to the Table” by Diana Henry. Serve with green salad and perhaps some roast tomatoes.
I’m a huge fan of Gorgonzola cheese so this recipe is a winner for me. It’s from ” Plenty” by Yotam Ottolenghi. Serve at room temperature on its own or with steamed greens such as purple sprouting broccoli or kale.
Another good recipe for courgettes from Diana Henry which she says is ” more or less ” Richard Olney’s recipe from Simple French Food. It can also be served as a side dish.
A version of this Greek favourite from Georgina Hayden and great when you have a glut of tomatoes. Its good served as a brunch with pitta bread or toast, but can also be served as part of a larger spread.
