Buckwheat is one of the few plant forms of complete protein, containing all 9 essential amino acids. It’s naturally gluten-free, so easy on digestion. Did you know is not actually a grain, but a fruit seed, related to rhubarb and sorrel?

- Slice the mushrooms, halve the cherry tomatoes, and add both to a roasting tray. Crush the garlic over them, drizzle with olive oil and a little salt and pepper. Cook in the hot oven for 15 mins.

- Pour boiling water over the spinach to wilt the leaves, strain off the water and add 2 tbsp plain yogurt and a little salt and pepper.

- Heat a non-stick large skillet. Add a little oil, then 1 soup ladle of the batter, tilting the pan to cover the base evenly.

- Cook for 2/3 mins per side.

- Once both sides are cooked, add a portion of each filling to the center, using a spatular, fold in the edges to create a parcel with a tempting window to your delicious fillings.
