Chard, also known as Swiss Chard, Ruby Chard or Rainbow Chard, (thanks to its brightly-coloured stalks) is part of the same vibrantly-coloured veg family as the beetroot. With iron-rich, deep green leaves and crisp stalks, it's perfect for steaming or stir-frying.

The leaves and stalks need to be cooked separately, as the stalks need a little longer. If you are steaming or stir-frying your chard, remove the stalks and chop them into short lengths, then add to the pan for a couple of minutes. Cut the leaves into strips and cook them for the last minute of the stalk-cooking time, or until they have lost their rawness.

Wrap the stalks in a damp paper towel or cloth and place the chard in a bag, and put it in the fridge. Freeze chard to preserve it for longer.
