Airfryer Chinese 5-Spiced Pork Belly

Moisture is the enemy of crispy pork belly skin, so the trick to super crispy pork crackling is placing the pork belly in the fridge overnight or up to 3 days to help to dry out the skin and maximise the crackle. Make the most of your air fryer and enjoy pork belly in minutes of cooking rather than hours in the oven. This pork belly is meltingly tender and crispy all at the same time. It is seasoned with Chinese five spice for extra flavour. But if you don’t have the spice blend, just use salt and pepper.

This aromatic bread gets its distinctive flavour from the addition of finely chopped wild garlic, which not only adds a fantastic, mild, and sweet garlicky flavour to the loaf, but it is also a nutrient-dense "superfood" with numerous health benefits. With spelt flour, milk and Parmigiano Reggiano, it turns out wonderfully hearty and moist. Best of all: it requires no yeast at all and can be mixed together with baking powder in just a few minutes. Whether for breakfast, as a side dish for a barbecue, or simply spread with butter – this quick bread is a real treat for all wild garlic fans!

Turn humble cherry radishes into a deliciously mellow, flavourful side dish with this easy, vibrant and well-spiced radish recipe from Olive Magazine. They pair beautifully with a tangy, salty preserved lemon yoghurt dressing for a perfect weeknight meal with meat or fish. Roasting or pan-searing radishes tames their spiciness and brings out their natural sweetness and earthy flavour. If you aren't a fan of them in their natural state, you may be surprised at how sweet and juicy these taste!
Millet Bread

This light millet bread is wonderfully moist and fluffy thanks to the use of milk and honey. In addition to the mineral-rich and easy-to-digest millet, which will be cooked beforehand, I also used both spelt flour and regular wheat flour for the dough, but you can use either just wheat or spelt. Perfect for sandwich or a delicious breakfast with homemade jam or cheese.
Pistachio and Olive Stuffed Pork Belly

Add some flair to your next Sunndy family meal with this succulent and crispy pork belly stuffed with toasted pistachios, green olives and herbs. Paired with soft, sweet apple and fennel for a well-rounded meal and it's a sure-fire winner for any special occasion. Add other vegetables (onions, mushrooms, squash and tomtoes) to the fennels and use pears or quince instead of apples if you like. Next time I will cut down the fennel seeds to 1 teaspoon or even leave it out completely and season the pork skin just with sea salt.
