Swede and Chickpea Mush

Wheat, gluten, corn, soya, nightshade, egg, nut & dairy free

This is really tasty. You could eat it by itself as a vegetarian dish
or serve with a meat or fish dish.

Serves 6

4 tbsp olive oil
500g swede, peeled and grated
2 large leeks, trimmed and sliced thinly
400g tin chickpeas, drained
200g fresh spinach, washed and trimmed
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Heat the oil in a heavy pan and add the swede and leeks. Fry gently for a couple of minutes then cover the pan, turn down the heat and sweat for 30–40minutes or until the vegetables are well cooked. Add the chickpeas and the spinach and mix in well.
Continue to cook for a few minutes to allow the spinach to wilt then season to taste with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
