About
| Pasta e Lenticchie is one of the most delicious soups in the Italian hearty soup canon. This recipe was created by chef, food stylist and recipe developer Rosie Mackean for our Whole Olive Green Lentils but works just as well with other whole lentils. We've been growing lentils in the UK since 2015 and they're now a tasty, versatile staple of our range of British-grown wholefoods. |
We love making this soup with lentils but you can swap in dried and soaked beans or chickpeas or tinned pulses too. It is fabulously hands-off, you just let the lentils bubble away until tender before adding the pasta and you can chuck in any other vegetables you need to use up.
This recipe exemplifies Rosie's love for Italian cuisine (and her addiction to pasta), more of which can be found on her Instagram feed and in her popular Substack newsletter The Dinner Party.

Gently tipping its hat to gyeran bap (Korean fried eggs and rice), this is a very easy but satisfying supper. The difference here is Isabella Palmer's use of wholegrain black wheat instead of rice as a full-of-fibre wholegrain, as well as cooking it from scratch in the toasty sesame sauce.
This cake is pure comfort from a tin! Made with kibbled naked barley, it takes inspiration from the creamy warmth of porridge and transforms it into something richer, denser and custardy.
Caponata is a much-loved Sicilian dish of bold Mediterranean flavours, traditionally a rich, sweet-sour stew of aubergines, onions, tomatoes, capers and herbs. In this version, tender borlotti beans join the mix, adding extra substance, creamy texture and a satisfying protein boost, making it as perfect for a light main as it is for a side dish.
