This root vegetable and goat’s cheese crumble is a lovely, warming winter dish. It’s great for using up leftover veg, as you can mix and match what vegetables you put into it, depending on what’s in the fridge.

Cream cheese works equally as well as goat’s cheese, but we think the natural acidity and flavoursome nature of goat’s cheese compliments this dish perfectly. Cooks in:...
