Veggie Cassoulet

This hearty veggie cassoulet is a plant-based take on the rustic French classic, trading heavy meats for a vibrant medley of fresh vegetables and creamy cannellini beans. It is a wonderful vegan dish that relies on slow-baked flavours and aromatic herbs like thyme and bay to create a deep, savoury profile. The combination of tender courgettes and tomatoes makes for a lighter, more modern version of the traditional stew that still feels thoroughly indulgent.

Perfect for a simple midweek supper or a relaxed weekend lunch, this healthy bean bake is packed with fibre and plant protein. The reserved bean liquid helps create a silky sauce that thickens beautifully in the oven. Serve it piping hot in deep bowls with slices of crusty whole-wheat toast to soak up every drop of the rich, garlic-infused juices.
