This is actually a perfect recipe for any leftover vegetables in the fridge. Carrots, beans and red onions can be replaced with potatoes, pumpkin and green peas; sweet potatoes, cauliflower and corn; courgettes, aubergines and tomatoes; Brussels sprouts, celery and spinach. The key is the cooking method in the oven, under a butter whipped with a blender and garlic and herbs. This butter will bring even the most wilted foods back to life and make dinner so… a little festive.
