Sautéed vegetables with soya sauce
Sautéed vegetables are a simple recipe that can be prepared in less than 20 minutes.

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan and add the vegetables. Cook over a high heat, stirring until they are soft but crispy.
Add soy sauce, grated ginger and sesame seeds for an extra touch of flavour.
This dish can be served on its own or accompanied by rice or pasta, making it a complete meal.
Creamy pumpkin and carrot soup
For cooler days, a creamy pumpkin and carrot soup is a nutritious and comforting option.
Start by sautéing the onion and garlic in a little olive oil. Add pieces of pumpkin and carrot, cover with vegetable stock and cook until the vegetables are soft.
Then blend everything in a blender to a creamy consistency.
Season with salt, pepper and a touch of nutmeg. Serve with croutons or a slice of toasted bread for a light and delicious meal.
Ratatouille in the oven
Ratatouille is a classic French recipe that uses a variety of vegetables and is incredibly easy to prepare.
Thinly slice pumpkin, aubergine, tomatoes and peppers. Arrange the vegetables in layers on a baking tray greased with olive oil, alternating the slices until the whole tray is filled.
Drizzle with more olive oil, salt, pepper, chopped garlic and herbs such as thyme and rosemary. Cover with aluminium foil and bake at 180°C for around 40 minutes, removing the foil for the last 10 minutes to brown.
Serve as a side dish or main course with a slice of crusty bread.
