The crisp filo top and warming lentil base make the ultimate comfort food – not just for vegans!

“Parathas are something I grew up eating, but normally they are stuffed with vegetables. I mixed it up and created a Puy lentil filling, which gives them a nutty, hearty flavour.”

An easy chicken dinner that can be whipped up quickly on a busy weeknight. Spicy harissa is cooled off with a yoghurt dressing and crunchy toasted almonds.

Smoky Spanish grains make the base of this comforting bowl that is topped with salty grilled halloumi, sweet roasted vegetables and spicy chorizo.
