Cauliflower becomes dinner when you give it a browned surface, a filling partner and a finish with contrast. Here are five routes from one head.
Roast carrots with beans, blend them into lentil soup, fry them with rice, fold them through pasta or build a spiced traybake around them.
Use green beans as the vegetable that carries dinner: blister them with tomatoes, fold them through noodles, pair them with eggs or build a warm white-bean skillet.

Frozen peas are a small freezer ingredient with five strong jobs: brighten pasta, thicken soup, finish curry, lift rice and fill a warm grain bowl.
