Notes

Don't Overcook the Greens
The vegetables should remain bright green and slightly tender for the best flavour and texture.
Use Fresh Herbs
Fresh dill adds a wonderful freshness that complements the vegetables beautifully.
Adjust the Spice
Add extra chilli flakes if you prefer a little more heat.
Add Extra Protein
For an even higher protein meal, serve alongside Greek yoghurt, cottage cheese, or smoked salmon.
Storage Tips
