Broccoli is my spring time favourite vegetable, which is lucky as I have a glut on from my allotment, so it is going in EVERYTHING! This time it is mixed with chestnuts and tofu to create an authentic Chinese dish reminiscent of the egg fried rice I used to eat. The “yolk” has a dry texture, and as it is made with spice is full of flavour. The tofu, soft and oily, makes for a slippery egg white substitute. It is not very eggy in flavour, but the textures and nutrition are a close match.

Brown Lentil One Pot Stew
I created this recipe when it was still cold but still useful for using up the winter veg of broccoli and leeks. An earthy, spicey one pot stew incorporating lentils and beans instead of meat, this gravey laden mix fuses Indian flavours with British veg.
