#AceFoodDesk Ellie Curshen says sometimes you just want to eat something that’s been bubbling away gently in a big pot or cooking slowly in the oven, developing rich, intense flavours. If you follow a plant-based or vegetarian diet, or are trying to eat less meat, satisfy those comfort-food cravings with Waitrose Weekend columnist Elly Curshen’s recipes
“These recipes can be adapted in all sorts of ways. Pasta with a creamy nut-based sauce can go in lots of directions, as can a braised tofu stir-fry – swap pak choi for your favourite green veg. A tray of roasted veg mixed with chickpeas is a great weeknight dinner that can be eaten cold for lunch the next day, and the coconut rice pudding could be swapped with any stewed fruit if you don’t fancy plums.”
