Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil. Gently fry the shallots and garlic for 5-8 mins, tip in the stock and peas, then bubble for a few mins until the peas are cooked.
  2. Meanwhile, boil the rest of the veg, cooking the broccoli and asparagus for a couple of mins first, then throwing in the mangetout for the final min. Drain well and tip into the pan with the peas. Season, add the butter and mix well.

TIP

If it's too chilly for summery mixed greens, try a wintry salad of spinach, sliced red onion and walnuts.

    Interesting way to cook greens. I added some broad beans with peas which were tasty. Seemed a huge quantity for four people though - but perhaps thats just us.
