Nigel’s harvest supper

This isn't really a recipe. It’s about taking whatever's grown side by side in the garden and bringing it all together with a simple, delicious cream sauce. Make your own version with the harvest from your garden.

Ingredients

Preparation method

  1. From the list above you want to chop up and steam the vegetables that need a little more cooking, so that will include the carrots, potatoes, chard stalk (not the leaves) for about 10 minutes

  2. In a frying pan gently cook the sliced courgettes and sliced tomatoes in olive oil and butter. Then add the shredded chard leaves, some basil and courgette flowers when almost soft.

  3. Finally prepare a quick sauce to bring it all together. To another pan add a knob of butter, a couple of tbsp of crème fraiche and stir whatever remaining herbs you have through it; chives would work well.

  4. Now toss this wonderful array of harvest produce together in the sauce and serve.
