Summer stews

As satisfying and nourishing as classic stews, these recipes have a lighter, brighter edge for the warmer months.
Slow cooked Greek greens
by Georgina Hayden

A nutritious meal inspired by a Greek style of cooking called ‘yiahni’ – slow-cooked seasonal veg in oil and tomatoes. Forget crunchy veg, I want tender, sweet and delicious vegetables.

In the summer I will slowly cook runner beans, green beans and peas in lots of garlic, onions and tomatoes. Usually eaten with fresh bread and capers.
