Ideal for economical soups, stews and curries or value-driven sides

Sweetcorn fritters

Sweetcorn

Mix drained corn with chickpea flour and water for a protein-rich fritter, or toss with olive oil and grill until golden for a Southern-style side.

2
Paneer and spinach curry

Spinach

Add to curries, soups and stews for colour, or stir through eggs to make a legendary breakfast scramble. Drain really well to avoid soggy leaves.

3
Fried new potatoes

Potatoes

Slice canned new potatoes for a quick Spanish-style tortilla, or pan fry them with olive oil and smoked paprika, squashing them slightly to get crispy, golden edges.

4
Cowboy caviar salad

Beans

Try the viral TikTok recipe, cowboy caviar. Toss mixed beans (kidney, black-eyed peas or black beans) and sweetcorn with avocado, chopped pepper, red onion, and a spiced lime and honey dressing.
