Gigantes Plaki
  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C fan.

  2. Heat the olive oil in an ovenproof pan or casserole dish. Cook the onion, carrot and celery for 8–10 minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic and tomato purée and cook for another minute.

  3. Add the chopped tomatoes, vegetable stock, oregano, thyme and bay leaves. Simmer for 10 minutes until slightly thickened.

  4. Stir in the giant butter beans and season well. Transfer to the oven and bake for 35–40 minutes, until bubbling and lightly caramelised on top.

  5. Remove the bay leaves and stir through most of the parsley and dill.

  6. Finish with crumbled feta, the remaining herbs and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Serve with wholegrain bread and a simple Greek salad.
