Hearty vegan recipes to make all winter

This batch-cooking friendly pasta sauce contains a whopping eight different varieties of veg and packs a flavour punch thanks to the M&S Everything Tomato, Garlic and Herb paste used in the base. Make a double batch and stash it in the freezer, ready to transform into veggie chilli or lentil bolognese.

Cauliflower is a winter staple that’s been given star billing in this creamy, mildly spiced soup. The leaves are crisped up too, creating a crunchy topping and helping you cut down on food waste. A fiery green chilli chutney adds acidity and spice.

Packed with flavour? Check. Made all in one tray? Check. Minimal prep? Check. This warming korma potato and chickpea curry traybake ticks all the midweek dinner boxes. Make up a double batch and serve the leftovers with rice, pack up for lunch or freeze for another day.

A proper rib-sticker of a dish that’s bursting with warming flavours. Crisping up some of the kale and chickpeas to scatter on top adds all-important texture, while the lentils are cooked slowly for a super-creamy result.
