In Maltese cuisine, fruits and vegetables play a significant role. The Maltese people value fresh and locally sourced produce, which is reflected in their traditional dishes. Many traditional Maltese recipes incorporate seasonal fruits and vegetables, making use of the abundance of flavors and nutrients they provide.

One popular traditional Maltese dish that showcases the use of vegetables is "Stuffat tal-Qarnit" (Stewed Octopus). This dish features octopus cooked with tomatoes, onions, garlic, and local herbs. The combination of these ingredients creates a delicious and hearty meal that is enjoyed by locals and visitors alike.

Another traditional Maltese dish that incorporates fruits is "Kawlata" (Maltese Vegetable Soup). This hearty soup is made with a variety of locally grown vegetables such as cabbage, carrots, potatoes, and broad beans. The addition of these vegetables adds a rich flavor and texture to the soup, making it a favorite comfort food during the cooler months.

It is also worth mentioning that Maltese cuisine has been influenced by various cultures throughout history.
