About
| This wonderfully warming and aromatic breakfast recipe is from A La Mesa by Aitana and Sarah of The Little Cooking Pot in Hackney. The book is packed with delicious, seasonal, vegetarian recipes that revolve around local produce and sustainable ways of eating. |
Aitana and Sarah say:
"In winter, we often start our days with a steaming bowl of porridge. Our recipe combines lots of British wholegrains and seeds, which not only taste nutty and delicious but are also full of fibre, good fats and proteins that slowly release energy and keep you going through the cold and dark mornings. We like to use a combination of flaked rye, quinoa, barley and rolled oats but you can make any combination you like or keep it simple and use just one.
"Feel free to adjust the recipe to suit your taste: if you like a thicker porridge, add more milk; if you prefer it sweeter, add more dates... you get the idea. Play around with different toppings, so that each bowl starts a day anew."

This beginner-friendly sourdough bread is a great sandwich bread, inspired by the Danish panini-style rye bread used at Joe & The Juice and the rågkusar rye sandwich thins popular in Sweden and Finland. Slice it horizontally and fill generously with your favourite sandwich filling.
Piyaz is a traditional Turkish bean salad, but in Antalya it takes on a unique and beloved twist. More than just a simple side, it becomes a hearty, flavourful dish in its own right, rich with tahini, olive oil and cumin, layered with herbs, eggs and tomatoes. Creamy flageolet beans form the base, while the tang of lemon and vinegar keeps it bright and refreshing. Finished with fragrant dill, parsley, and a sprinkle of sumac, this is a salad that’s as satisfying as it is vibrant, perfect served alongside grilled dishes or enjoyed simply with good bread.
An old-fashioned classic, upgraded for more plant diversity, more fibre, and, dare I say it, more flavour too! Instead of using just oats in crumble bars, try our four grain muesli base. You can make the crumble bars with either a caramelly date filling or a fresh, tart berry filling.
