A chef and food writer, Helen is the former executive chef of Bubala, where she became known for bold, flavour-packed vegetarian cooking. She loves layering flavours, drawing particular inspiration from the Middle East and North Africa to make vegetables the star of the show. Her debut cookbook, Centrepiece, champions the vegetable underdog with vibrant, inventive recipes that puts them firmly centre stage.

Helen’s menu features dishes from her debut cookbook, Centrepiece, which puts veg firmly in the spotlight. The veg-led feast starts with halloumi, breadcrumbed and fried, served with a moreish spiced lemon syrup for dipping. “I’m pretty insistent when serving these that everyone must double-dip,” Helen says. There’s also paratha with a caramelised courgette dip. Next, slow-roasted sweet potatoes with amba, Medjool date butter and harissa Greek yoghurt. On the side, Hispi cabbage is served over creamy whipped tofu and drizzled with a spring onion salsa. For dessert, she crumbles halva – a sweet, sesame-based Middle Eastern confectionery – through Earl Grey-infused cream. “If you love tahini, this dessert is for you,” she says.
