Spicy Carrot and Coriander Salad

I invented this particular salad a few years ago, inspired by the flavours in the vegetable recipes in my copy of the old edition of North African Cookery.

It has proved very popular. The strong flavours are a great accompaniment to barbecues and grilled chicken.

Sausage, Potato and Vegetable Bake

Another weekday evening, another throw-it-all-in-the-oven-and-forget-about-it meal. Homegrown green beans needed eating, and the potatoes had just been dug.

Carrot and Coriander Omelette

A quick, healthy, vegetable and herb-laden lunchtime omelette in a vaguely Persian style. Serve hot or cold, cut into wedges, with ketchup and salad.
