Frequently asked questions
Can I prepare it ahead?
Partly: you can chop vegetables and pre-cook grains or pulses, then finish the dish just before serving. Keep it in the fridge and eat within a day or two.
Can I swap an ingredient?
Yes, pick a similar seasonal product (for example another vegetable from the same family) and check cooking times, which may change.
