Box of Veg

Vegetables offer an almost infinite number of culinary possibilities to the home cook and are much, much more than just a side dish. The recipes in this chapter will open your eyes to new possibilities, from the Mexican Fattoush, to Pea, Mint and Feta Crostini and aromatic Moroccan Slow-Cooked Vegetables. When it comes to buying vegetables, seasonal is best; not only will they be kinder on the purse, they’ll taste better too. That said, don’t forget the ultimate convenience food — frozen veg.
