| This recipe from The Cook & Him transforms a simple baguette into these delectable crostini with little more than split fava beans, ricotta, lemon, mint and edamame beans. They're perfect for entertaining - or treat yourself for a weekend lunch. |
These tasty bites are another fantastic creation from Sam, Phil and Meg the dog of food and recipe blog The Cook & Him.
The fava beans combine perfectly with ricotta and fresh mint for a delightfully creamy texture and fresh flavour, with the added zing of lemon zest.
Cooking tip: If you're not used to using cup measurements they can be easily converted for any measuring jug as 1 cup = 225ml. The corresponding weights for dry ingredients vary so it's best to measure but you can you an online conversion tool.

This beginner-friendly sourdough bread is a great sandwich bread, inspired by the Danish panini-style rye bread used at Joe & The Juice and the rågkusar rye sandwich thins popular in Sweden and Finland. Slice it horizontally and fill generously with your favourite sandwich filling.
Piyaz is a traditional Turkish bean salad, but in Antalya it takes on a unique and beloved twist. More than just a simple side, it becomes a hearty, flavourful dish in its own right, rich with tahini, olive oil and cumin, layered with herbs, eggs and tomatoes. Creamy flageolet beans form the base, while the tang of lemon and vinegar keeps it bright and refreshing. Finished with fragrant dill, parsley, and a sprinkle of sumac, this is a salad that’s as satisfying as it is vibrant, perfect served alongside grilled dishes or enjoyed simply with good bread.
An old-fashioned classic, upgraded for more plant diversity, more fibre, and, dare I say it, more flavour too! Instead of using just oats in crumble bars, try our four grain muesli base. You can make the crumble bars with either a caramelly date filling or a fresh, tart berry filling.
