About
| This recipe is the first in a series created in collaboration with Borough Broth and Dr. Wills using some of our products now available from Holland & Barrett. |
Our quinoa makes a great alternative to the more traditional couscous for any tagine.
If you're using chicken for this recipe, it's important to choose chicken that has been produced responsibly. Intensive chicken and pork production is associated with deforestation to produce soy for feed and produces huge quantities of effluent that can be damaging to the local environment. The UK's billion-chickens-a-year habit is killing rivers like the Wye and accelerating the loss of the Cerrado in Brazil. Besides the imported soya, around 50% of UK-grown grain is produced to feed animals, accounting for around 2.4 million hectares of land.
Ask at your local farmers' market or farm shop about pasture-raised birds where soy has not been added to the feed. Alternatively, ethical online supplier Pipers Farm sources their chicken from farms like Redwoods Farm in Devon, who we worked with on the Soy No More campaign.
Better still, skip the chicken and try making this with more plant-based ingredients - roasted aubergine or tofu would be delicious!

This Hearty Twisted Spelt Bread from Greens & Grains by Anne-Katrin Weber is a beautifully simple yet impressive loaf that celebrates the rich, nutty flavour of spelt. Combining spelt flour with pearled spelt adds texture and heartiness. This slow-fermented bread develops incredible depth of flavour and a wonderfully crisp crust. With its rustic twisted shape and chewy crumb, it’s perfect for tearing and sharing, serving alongside soups and stews, or enjoying simply with butter and salt.
A simple, deeply nourishing ramen that combines the rich, savoury flavour of Hodmedod’s Fava Bean Umami Paste with the nutrient-packed crunch of SUCSEED.
A fragrant and comforting Mejadra-style dish featuring earthy lentils and basmati rice, topped with crispy fried onions and served with a zesty garlic yoghurt.
