Charred Courgette with Spelt Tofu Medallions

Charred courgette pieces on cous cous with little tofu medallions pan-fried and salad leaves and dots of salad dressing glistening in the sun

This sunlit plate brings together diagonally scored courgette, pan-seared until tender, with warmly spiced tofu medallions and a fragrant peanut-coconut crumb. A dollop of herbed yoghurt and a scattering of pickles and leaves complete the story. It's vibrant, grounding, and perfectly suited to outdoor days or inside moments of calm.

Sticky Barbecue Beans with Cornbread Crumble

A serving of sticky barbecue beans and golden cornbread dumplings, with herbs and lemon zest scattered on top. a lovely vegan evening meal. It is on a stone wall with mossy around. A gorgeous summer bowl.

Smoky, sticky, and deeply comforting — this skillet brings barbecue beans and soft cornbread together in one bubbling pan. The harissa-tomato base is sweet and savoury, with lemon and thyme cutting through the richness. Finished with dumpling-sized cornbread crumbles, it’s the sort of thing you’d eat by firelight with a spoon and a smile.
