Maple Mustard Tray

55 minHealth 86

Golden butternut squash and caramelised Brussels sprouts are roasted in a sticky maple and Dijon glaze alongside hearty slabs of marinated tofu — a tray bake that fills the kitchen with sweet, tangy warmth. The vegetables emerge glossy and tender-edged, with the shallots and garlic melting into the sauce. Brilliant as a weeknight supper or a relaxed Sunday centrepiece, and lovely alongside a glass of crisp dry cider.

Gold Squash Locro

45 minHealth 91

A thick, golden Peruvian stew that glows in the bowl — sweet winter squash melting into a fragrant broth heady with aji amarillo heat and the anise-dark whisper of huacatay. Creamy oat milk rounds every spoonful, whilst sweet corn, broad beans and peas make it a proper meal in itself. Brilliant for a midweek supper, and lovely alongside a crisp lager or a cold glass of chicha morada.
