Spiced Yoghurt
This is a revolutionary way of flavouring yoghurt. Add smoked paprika flakes or ground cumin, or make a sweet version with ground cinnamon and mixed spice. Or for another take, scatter with chopped herbs. See Lentils & Cavolo Nero with Spiced Yoghurt for a serving idea.

Pear & Pistachio Salad
Pears and pistachios make such a lovely combination I don’t know why I hadn’t thought of it earlier. If it’s summer where you are, try the salad with juicy, but not squishy, peaches.
