Pickled Crudités

This vibrant vegan dish offers a sophisticated twist on the traditional vegetable platter. By lightly poaching baby carrots, sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts in a fragrant brine of white wine vinegar, garlic and warming spices, the vegetables take on a bright, tangy flavour while maintaining their satisfying crunch. It is a refreshing alternative to standard raw crudités, bringing a zesty acidity that cuts through richer appetisers or creamy festive dips.

Perfect for effortless entertaining, these pickled vegetables can be prepared a day in advance, allowing the aromatics like coriander seeds and chillies to infuse deeply. This healthy, colourful snack is best served chilled on a large platter, making it an ideal choice for a summer lunch or as a sharp, savoury accompaniment to a weekend buffet spread.
