This warming white bean mash is generously drizzled with our Mellow Yellow Chilli Oil for a comforting, tasty supper. Simple to whip up, yet singing with flavour, it pairs perfectly with seasonal cavolo nero, garlic and lemon for a balanced, satisfying meal that’s full of goodness. Serve it as a main, side, or accompaniment to protein based dishes like this Chilli Chicken Traybake and Smoky Sausage & Chorizo Stew.

This crispy gnocchi by Heather at Rhind & Dine is sunshine on a plate for the winter months. Bringing together caramelised seasonal veg, pillowy gnocchi, roasted garlic and a bright, spicy lemon dressing, all finished with creamy stracciatella, it’s full of goodness and packed with flavour.

Heather uses our Mellow Yellow Cold Pressed Rapeseed Oil for its gentle, nutty richness that lets the veg shine (and crisps the gnocchi to perfection) then adds a drizzle of our Chilli Oil for a warm, subtle heat that lifts the whole dish without overpowering it. If you enjoy this recipe, you might also like to try Heather’s Spicy Pumpkin & Sausage Beanotto – a firm favourite in the Mellow Yellow Kitchen.

Food writer Emily Gussin brings deep comfort to the table with this rich mushroom and stilton pie. A mix of chestnut, oyster, shiitake and porcini mushrooms is folded into a creamy, Stilton‑laced sauce boosted with bay, Dijon and a touch of Marmite for extra umami. The pastry comes together beautifully with Mellow Yellow Cold Pressed Rapeseed Oil, giving the crust a golden colour and crisp, crumbly bite. Lighter than a butter pastry, it balances the indulgent filling while retaining the oil’s natural nutrients, antioxidants and Omega‑3s.

Want to make it vegan? Omit the cheese and use an oat-based creme fraiche for the sauce.

There’s nothing quite like a bowl that warms you from the inside out, and this spicy tomato orzo soup by Chop Chop Ems does exactly that. The gentle heat from our Mellow Yellow Chilli Oil brings a slow, soothing warmth, the silky orzo laps up the tomato flavours and the hot honey halloumi croutons add an irresistible texture clash. It’s everything we want to eat this January — comforting, nourishing, and utterly delicious.
