I chose to use rocket instead of spinach plush mushies, carrots, coriander from garden, some diced pumpkin - quite a hotch potch really- great success and top marks for such a versatile and healthy recipe.

I really enjoyed the combination of the ingredients, although I did leave the spinach out. But I also felt there was too much water at the bottom of the pan, which made the veggies a bit soggy.
