This simple yet impressive dish is full of bold flavours and satisfying textures. Juicy tomatoes are filled with a hearty mixture of creamy white coco beans, savoury mushrooms, and fragrant spices, then roasted until meltingly tender. Finished with a drizzle of spiced curry leaf butter, it brings together earthy, citrusy, and warming notes in a dish that works beautifully as a starter, a light lunch, or a vibrant side

This rich and earthy stew is the perfect comforting dish for cooler evenings. Made with nutty borlotti beans and a medley of mushrooms, it’s deeply savoury with a touch of sweetness from marsala wine. Dried porcini add an extra layer of umami, while rosemary and garlic bring warmth and depth.

Eden's latest recipe is inspired by the Catalan method of adding dry or fried bread to dishes to thicken sauces and make them more luxurious. Paired with the briny and acid dressing, this is a great way to eat beans, not at all heavy but both savoury and bright. Best served with salad and bread – double bread! – why not?
