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.
