2-Add flavor with herbs
Herbs can make a big difference to the flavor of your vegetable dishes, and while you can use dried herbs from your spice rack, it’s best to use fresh herbs where possible. You can even grow your own, and the good news is that you can do this even if you’re short on space, as herbs like rosemary and coriander can be grown in small planters.

However, if you can’t dedicate yourself to growing your own herbs, fresh herbs are still readily available – just visit your local market or buy them from the supermarket. Adding fresh (or dried) herbs to your vegetables means adding many health benefits – from memory-boosting rosemary to blood pressure-lowering thyme to antioxidant sage. Herbs such as dill and mint can be used to garnish your vegetables after cooking, while oregano, parsley, and basil can be sprinkled lightly over your vegetables before roasting, grilling, or air frying.
Why not try sautéing asparagus with a little basil, parsley, and tomato to accompany a salmon dish or vinegar-roasted beetroot with rosemary and thyme? Alternatively, you can try this versatile recipe for roasted vegetables with herbs, which can be adapted to suit your preferences depending on the vegetables you use to accompany your meals.
The combinations of herbs you can imagine are endless and only limited by your imagination – we recommend experimenting with different flavor combinations to find the one you like best!
