Hariyali Murgh Green Chicken

Hariyali Murgh or green chicken, a classic Northern Indian dish, is chicken coated in a green sauce, typically made with green chilli, coriander, mint leaves, yoghurt and spices. It is hearty, flavourful, and so delicious served with rice, naan or chapati. I used chicken thighs, but chicken breast or drumsticks all work. The cooking time might vary. You can cube the chicken and thread them together to make chicken skewers too.
Seedy Kamut Bread

This simple bread recipe uses a straight bread dough method. That means that you just combine all ingredients in the mixing bowl and mix. Though it's basic, the mix of flours (kamut, buckwheat and rye) and seeds (poppy, flax, pepita and sesame) gives the bread an interesting and multilayered taste, texture and aroma.
Kamut is nothing other than the ancient ancestor of our modern wheat, i.e. it belongs to the so-called heirloom grains, which was already used to bake daily bread about 6,000 years ago. Strictly speaking, kamut, aka khorasan wheat, is a cultivated form of durum wheat, which is derived from wild emmer. They resemble conventional wheat, but are about twice as large. Kamut is extremely nutritious, easy to digest, and tastes mild and slightly nutty.

Hot smoked sprats and eggs are a marriage made in breakfast / brunch heaven. Whip up this delicious and healthy frittata with eggs, hot smoked sprats, Greek yoghurt, dill, and cherry tomatoes in less than half an hour. It's naturally gluten-free and keto friendly.
Sprat, or brisling, a small oily fish, is rich in high quality protein and beneficial omega-3 fatty acids. They're very similar to sardines in size, but have a somewhat meatier taste. The smoked flavor makes them special! You can leave the sprats intact, head on and guts in and eat them whole.

Delicious, harmoniously balanced spicy-sweet-smoky roasted carrots and chickpeas on a bed of creamy whipped feta and Greek yoghurt. This Middle-Eastern inspired, restaurant-worthy side dish is a real crowd-pleaser and a great option for last-minute entertaining. If you don’t have carrot tops for the salsa verde, simply use fresh parsley. Use rainbow carrots if you could find them. Great to serve with flatbreads to scoop up the feta sauce.
