Notes about this book

    Rich aubergine Parmigiana - tasted good but took too long for a weeknight. Husband tolerated it.

    Simplest soba supper noodles with mushroom and egg - essentially a stir fry, this was quick and tasty, fewer noodles than I would normally use but I guess that's the point! Used mangetout and smoked tofu instead of mushroom and egg as per suggestions.

    Carrot and lemon hummus salad jar - the carrot hummus tasted OK but had an odd chunky texture - I feel it has potential but don't think I'll be repeating it without some changes. The accompanying salad although simple was surprisingly satisfying and refreshing and I happily ate this twice in one week.

    Peach and tomato panzanella - this is a great summer salad and pretty with coloured tomatoes. It is well worth the extra effort of grilling the bread. I packed the bread separately in a foil packet because I have a hatred of soggy bread but the grilling may protect it? The basil had really imparted its flavour by lunchtime. Might add some green leaves next time just to balance it out. I hadn't quite believed the meagre amount of dressing would make a difference but I was happy to be proved wrong. Quick to prepare.

    Sweet potato and black bean chilli with smoked paprika cream/avocado - Made the avocado (vegan) version without chilli so DD could eat too. Simple and tasty, perfect for weeknights - husband liked this more than I did. Kate Harrison suggests substituting black beans with green lentils or kidney beans for a change.

    Individual tomato and onion tarte tatin - this turned out much better than expected - it was tasty and pretty filling. It was well-received by husband who isn't overly keen on tomatoes. He added goat's cheese to his. I thought it was fine without. It's also quite an attractive dish, particularly with different coloured tomatoes. However, it was a complete faff to make and one I won't be repeating in a hurry. My mistake was to try to scale it up and make 3 individual portions. If I was trying this again in the future I would probably save for the weekend and might try one big tart, with larger tomatoes to reduce prep. My onions were also too big and meant there wasn't as much room for tomatoes - pay attention to the "small" instruction next time!
