For today’s meat free meal I thought I’d share this brunch recipe, but it works for lunch or a light dinner as well. Some minty sweet smashed peas with creme fraiche or sour cream, spicy, salty and sweet halloumi bites, fruity pomegranate seeds for texture and sweet pea shoots to garnish, it’s a colourful and vibrant meal which delivers on every level.

Inspired by a recent brunch at Urban Angel on Hanover Street in Edinburgh, this recipe has become a slight obsession. Perfect for brunch, lunch or a light dinner, it is a healthy dish full of texture and some of my favourite flavours. It’s also super easy to pull together last minute and chances are you will have most of the ingredients in your cupboard already.
