Middle Eastern (Inspired) Lamb Mince and Liver Hotpot

I may have a bit of an obsession with getting liver into my meals in totally delicious ways. But there are worse obsessions to have. This dish, is slightly random - sometimes the best things are! I got creative with some Middle Eastern-inspired ingredients and a number of spices and ended up with this hotpot that would be perfect for a big batch cook, a family supper or a dinner party.

Chicken Liver Pâté

Here’s a super simple chicken liver pâté recipe that can be made in 10 minutes and will last a week in the fridge. Organ meats really are the crême de la crême of nutritious foods and a good place to start, if you are new to the organ-meat-game, is with chicken liver. In comparison to chicken breast/muscle meat, chicken liver is significantly more nutrient-dense and beneficial for our health. The flavour is perfect for a creamy homemade pâté which makes a great nutrient-dense protein source for a lunch plate.

Baked Cajun Cauliflower

I absolutely love baking cauliflower, along with its leaves (because they are also very delicious and nutritious).

This dish is perfect if you are trying to get someone to enjoy cauliflower who may otherwise be a little dismissive of it.

Easy Leek and Celeriac Soup

This celeriac and leek soup is the perfect warming winter dish for your weekday lunches. It is extremely easy to make with a handful of ingredients and tastes light and fresh yet creamy. Prepare a batch and enjoy it throughout the week. Celeriac is perhaps one of the most underrated vegetables and it needs to be celebrated more. The season in the UK runs from September to April. It’s the perfect soup to make after a trip to a farmer’s market at the weekend, using fresh, organic produce, and a few ingredients goes a long way.
