    Quick tasty winter warmer. Loved the crunch of the pumpkin seeds on the top. Threw in a bit of cheddar too... just because ... mustard, leeks and cheddar always go together! And a sprinkle of smoked paprika

    wow wow wow, great dish and super simple. not a fan of parsley so left it out I also had some toasted almonds to use up and added some chilli oil. also had a butter bean and zatar dip which I added rather than the yogurt. great dish for this time of year and very versatile. tried to add a photo but not sure how to do it?

    Genuinely so good?! It doesn’t seem like it would be that flavourful but it is, and I actually had to skip a few ingredients that i didn’t have to hand - so so good

    Im not sure if it's the tinned beans I used (Aldi) but this really doesn't taste of much aside from the odd burst from a fennel seed, on my opinion.

    Hey Beth, thanks for giving this one a go! You could always us a bit more stock or mustard to give this one a bit more flavour, but this recipe also benefits from seasoning as you go with plenty of salt and pepper!

    really good, didn't have enough leek so used extra celery and finely chopped broccoli to pad if out. the pumpkin seeds are essential they add a lot.

    Delicious filling recipe, easy to make. I added half of a lemon zest too as it really complements the ingredients and gives a bit more than the juice on its own.

    we enjoyed this but the mustard was way too overpowering! Recommend using a teaspoon instead of tablespoon

    Hi Zak! Pleased you enjoyed, thanks for your feedback it's definitely a good idea to cut down the mustard levels if it's not too your taste :)

    Prefer this as a side rather than main meal but definitely yummy! I made too much but will add some miso next time I think

    Made this the other week and it was absolutely delicious - really simple, but extraordinarily good. Ate it with some roasted sweet potatoes and then made it into a breakfast by putting it on toast and adding a fried egg... bc a fried egg make everything breakfast haha

    Brilliant recipe - add some miso paste & blend a third of the bean mixture for extra umami and thickness

    Superb recipe - simple and delicious. I recommend using jarred beans, the Belazu ones are very good.

    My first Mob grub, very happy indeed. Added another half a stock cube and a good deal more garlic. Enough for two evenings. Thank you Elena

    Didn’t have any fennel seeds but it was super tasty anyway! Really creamy and comforting - big slice of buttered sourdough on the side . Great for winter nights !

    I didn't have any fennel seeds but used a small fennel bulb, cooked with the leek. And at the end stirred in a teaspoon of nduja paste, and served with parmesan and chilli oil. It was delicious!
