Serving a salad with a warm “hummus” base makes all the flavours sing, and feels so much more comforting on colder days. This Carlin Pea hummus is also fabulous with a baked sweet potato and plenty of dark green steamed leaves. |
Hummus literally means chickpeas - the ingredient is synonymous with the dish. But the approach can be applied to any number of pulses to make deliciously different dips. Carlin peas are a particularly good substitute for chickpeas - and with their chestnutty flavour and beautiful rich colour they bring something new and exciting to a favourite recipe.

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.
