Today's pick

Sicilian Aubergine Caponata

70 minHealth 83

Deeply savoury and gloriously jewel-toned, this Sicilian classic layers tender fried aubergine, briny olives, sweet-sour agrodolce and fragrant basil into something far greater than the sum of its parts. It is one of those dishes that genuinely improves overnight, making it the ideal prepare-ahead centrepiece or antipasto for a summer spread.

Brussels Sprout Mushroom Hash

30 minHealth 87

Crispy, caramelised Brussels sprouts meet smoky, umami-rich chestnut mushrooms in a golden hash that's as satisfying on a weeknight as it is on a weekend brunch table. A squeeze of lemon at the end lifts every savoury note and keeps the colours vivid. Serve it alongside a glass of dry Riesling for a pairing that sings.

Rustic Chickpea Tomato Soup

60 minHealth 84

A deeply savoury Italian soup built on golden soffritto, sweet peeled tomatoes and tender chickpeas, finished with a glug of grassy extra-virgin olive oil — hearty enough for a midweek supper yet quietly elegant. Partially blending half the chickpeas gives the broth a silky, voluptuous body without a drop of cream. Serve it over fluffy pilau rice on a cool evening for a bowlful that genuinely satisfies.
