Sweet Corn Puree With Baked Cauliflower & Spinach
Sweet corn is rich in fibre and a delicious means of adding valuable carbohydrate to a meal teamed with protein and healthy fats. In this recipe I’ve made wholesome sweet corn into a heavenly miso-flavoured puree to match with baked cauliflower and sautéed spinach. Add your choice of protein to the meal and it’s wonderfully complete. My go to would be fish or butter beans.

- Spread the puree around two bowls, top with baked cauliflower, sautéed spinach, and sprinkle with nori, furikake or gomasio and serve.
