This classic succotash is a vibrant, high-protein side dish that perfectly balances sweet and savoury notes. Combining golden corn kernels with tender lima beans, the recipe creates a wonderful textural contrast that is elevated by a silky double cream sauce. The addition of smoky bacon provides a punch of saltiness, making this a comforting and substantial accompaniment to roasted meats or a satisfying standby for an easy midweek meal.

Traditionally enjoyed for its simplicity, this homemade version uses spring onions and green peppers to provide a fresh, garden-crisp flavour. It is an excellent way to use seasonal produce during the summer months, though frozen beans work perfectly for a year-round nutritional boost. Serve this colourful vegetable medley warm to appreciate the rich, velvety finish of the cream and the crunch of the garnish.
