Notes about Recipes in this book

• Sweet potato & ginger stew with quinoa

  • abeuseli on January 15, 2024

    Very tasty and straightforward to make so perfect for mid week. I had to substitute allspice for the star anise and threw in a jar of butter beans. I used chilli halloumi instead of mozzarella because that's all we had in the fridge. Will defintmake again.

• Sweet potato salad with loads of herbs & pink peppercorns

  • Lepa on April 20, 2022

    Our whole family enjoyed this salad. We ate it as a main. It has a lovely, complex taste but was easy to throw together between work calls.

• Potato & cheddar pie with apple sauce

  • shelbstirr on March 27, 2025

    This was alright, I enjoyed eating it. Mild in flavor, could try extra sharp cheddar cheese next time (I usually use medium). I undercooked the potatoes a bit so make sure to cook them thoroughly before putting into the pie. Don’t skip the applesauce.

• Pumpkin gnocchi with spinach sauce

  • gamulholland on May 14, 2022

    I used canned pumpkin and had to use a LOT more flour to get gnocchi that was not sticky so that I could work with it. Basically, I need to learn to make gnocchi— this was my first try, but it won’t be my last. The sauce was good, but I think the garlic version the author posted online would be better because, well, garlic.

• Broccoli, spicy tomato sauce & black olives

  • linacuisine2021 on April 04, 2024

    Very easy and tasty recipe, pure bliss with slightly pickled red onions on top!

• Shaved Brussels sprouts with Parmesan, roasted pecans, white pepper & lemon juice

  • Lepa on May 08, 2022

    This is refreshing and pretty good.

• Savoy cabbage gratin

  • anniecc on December 25, 2022

    Tasty and decadent. I used regular cream rather than creme fraiche, which was fine. If I made it again I might be tempted to sauté the cabbage initially rather than roasting it - I found the outer leaves dried out and charred, there’s no way I could have roasted it for 45 minutes, unless covered.

• Miso aubergines

  • anniecc on September 12, 2025

    This is a simplified version of a traditional Japanese recipe. It was pretty straightforward and very tasty. I used Japanese aubergines so had to guess at the quantity, but it still came out well.

• Courgette & herb lasagne

  • ChelseaP on July 08, 2022

    Delicious vegetarian lasagne. We actually thought it tasted better the next day.

• Tomato, herb & halloumi salad

  • stepharama1 on June 16, 2022

    The gorgeous photo sucked me into making this salad. It tasted fabulous and was so simple a recipe really isn't required.

  • Lepa on July 23, 2022

    This is a nice summer salad when you have in-season tomatoes. I used basil for the herbs and we had it with garlic bread and simple shell beans. Such a great summer dinner!

• Beans in sherried tomato sauce

  • anniecc on May 15, 2023

    This was ok, but the ratio of sauce to beans was not what I was expecting. If I made it again I would either reduce the sauce quantity or increase the amount of beans. I added some dried thyme and smoked paprika to the sauce which seemed in keeping with the vaguely Spanish theme.
