Make the most of those mango scraps by turning them into a smooth, fruity sauce to stir into sundowners, drizzle over desserts or spoon on to porridgeSaving food from being wasted can range from just composting food scraps to cooking with the whole ingredient, which means the leaves, stems, skin and everything in between.

Bistro, bouchon, brasserie: whatever you call it, this is, above all else, good, honest cooking, rustic rather than show-offy, and it’s made to share around a noisy table, whether that’s in a restaurant or in the comfort of your own home.
