| Helena Barlow kindly gave us this recipe for a twist on traditional Greek fava, made with our pink Flamingo Peas instead of the more usual split yellow peas or grass peas. The Flamingo peas give the dish a sweetness, a beautiful warm colour and a creamy texture. |
Traditional Greek fava, but made with Flamingo pink peas rather than grass peas (as might be the case with fava santorini). This recipe was inspired by my Greek auntie and her friend at Oliveology in London’s Borough Market. It was seriously delicious and totally cured my craving for the fava we eat in Crete. These Flamingo peas are special as they are a new variety that’s only just been grown in the UK for the first time this year - highly recommend that you try them!

This comforting barley risotto - or "orzotto" - comes from Greens & Grains by Anne-Katrin Weber, a beautiful celebration of plant-forward cooking that highlights the flavour and versatility of whole grains. In this recipe, nutty pearl barley replaces traditional rice to create a risotto that’s hearty, wholesome, and full of texture. Sweet, slow-roasted cherry tomatoes add depth and richness, perfectly balanced by the creamy tang of Gorgonzola and a touch of lemon. It’s a dish that feels indulgent yet nourishing.
Sometimes, only a sweet breakfast will do. Whether it’s for comfort after a sleepless night, or as an indulgence on a lazy weekend, this spiced, sweet and crunchy breakfast torte is perfect. Yes, it has a bit of added sugar, but it’s also packed full with 11 plant varieties and approximately 6 grams of fibre in each slice. Try it with some yoghurt and stewed seasonal fruit.
A vibrant, balanced salad featuring nutty Carlin Peas, crisp apples, and crunchy walnuts, all tossed in a creamy, sharp blitzed butternut squash dressing.
