  1. If you’re buying broad beans in their pods, you’ll need around 900g of pods to get 300g beans. Save the pods in the freezer to make stock with.

    You can replace the pork belly with roughly chopped chestnut mushrooms.

  2. When they’re in season, you can find radishes complete with a froth of green leaves. These are completely edible and have the same pleasing pepperiness as the radishes themselves, so don’t throw them in the bin – use as you would salad leaves or watercress.
