RECIPE

Rhubarb and Almond Cake with Lemon Cream (gf) Tart rhubarb pairs beautifully with almonds and a touch of spice in this easy, moist cake. Sandwiched with a creamy lemon filling it’s perfect anytime of the day. View Recipe Fish with Pork and Ginger This Cambodian-inspired dish may sound a bit odd – fish in a sauce made with pork, vinegar, sugar, fermented beans and dried mushrooms – but it works perfectly. As with most Cambodian fare, any spice-derived heat comes from adding fresh chilli yourself, so the chilli-shy are in safe territory here. View Recipe Nourishing Kelp Noodle Soup with Turmeric, Ginger and Kale This soul soothing soup is designed to help chase away those winter ills. The rich broth loaded with vegetables and topped with a soft boiled egg make for the perfect weeknight meal. You'll find kelp noodles at health food stores and good supermarkets. View Recipe
