Full of contrasting textures and flavours, this is one of those recipes that the whole family will love – it works really well with cooked chicken too.

Pretty much anything that’s close to its use-by date can be transformed under the guise of a Spanish omelette. You can include cooked potatoes, cooked vegetables such as peas, leeks, carrots, courgettes, onions etc, that last rasher of bacon and cheese that’s going hard around the edges.

This is a neat little dish for being creative with your leftovers. You can have them hot or cook them the night before to take cold to work for lunch. For best results keep your leftover veg in the fridge with your roast until you need them for this recipe.

This recipe is great for when you find those stale slices of bread left at the end of the loaf.
