Best-selling author and professional chef Claire Thomson offers up her best 70 recipes with pulses as star of the show, revealing just how simple it is to create delicious one-pan meals that all of the family will love.

Drawing inspiration from across the globe, Claire showcases recipes that will inspire you to choose pulses as your budget-friendly midweek go-to ingredient. From Turkish Lentil Tomato Soup and Pasta e Fagioli to Pork Belly with Butter Beans and Sage, One Pan Pulses is a practical and dynamic source of kitchen inspiration.
