Quick lemon garlic sauteed pak choi

When making the recipe it’s important not to burn the garlic. Pak Choi (Bok choy) is a nutritious vegetable and an excellent source of vitamin C and vitamin A. It tastes mild and when cooked correctly has a light crunch at the bottom with wilted greens on top.

To turn this into a main dish, add cooked chicken, prawns or tofu. Season the protein with salt and pepper then cook until almost cooked through. Add the garlic, pepper flakes and the pak choi then cook until the green tops have wilted and the bottoms are crisp-tender. Finish with the lemon and olive oil.

Root Vegetable boulangere

A lovely, comforting dish, this was traditionally made just with potatoes and cooked in the baker’s oven. This version uses parsnips and carrots instead of all potatoes to keep the calorie count down and give extra flavour.
