RECIPE OF THE WEEK
Ingredients
1 tbsp coconut/olive oil
1 large red onion, finely sliced
2 spring onions, chopped (keep the whites and greens separate)
4 large garlic cloves, minced
1/2 tsp red chilli flakes
Salt and black pepper to taste
200 grams button mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 large potato,  thinly sliced
2 1/2 cups vegetable stock, heated
2 cups collard greens, roughly chopped
3/4 cup thick coconut milk
1 tbsp fresh lime juice

Directions

In a large stock pot/Dutch oven heat the oil over a medium flame. Add the sliced onions, spring onions (white part), garlic, chilli flakes, salt  and pepper. Sauté until the onions turn transparent. 

Add the sliced potatoes and sauté for 5 more minutes. 

Add the mushrooms and continue to cook, stirring frequently until they turn glossy and start to shrink. 

Add in the hot stock, cover and cook for 10 minutes or until the potatoes are soft. Use a wooden spoon to mash them a bit. This will help give some body to the broth. 

Add in the chopped collard greens along with the spring onion greens. Once the greens start to wilt, lower the heat and stir in the coconut milk.

Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Simmer for 5 more minutes.

Stir in the lime juice and serve hot.

FARM UPDATES
What beautiful weather we have been having. I can handle the cold as long as I have some sun with it! I got an email that there was extra funding available for us in the YESP ( Youth Employment and Skills Program ) so I am in the process of claiming that, which will cover a portion of the wages we spent on Caitlyn which was a happy surprise! We are proud to say that our farm never employees people under $15/hour even though we are small scale. It was scary to make such a principled decision right off the bat before we even had employees but our thinking is if you set your bar high you can go even higher! And to be honest it is worth every penny. The idea of working alongside someone who is burnt out and broke just breaks my heart into a million pieces so we chose to be brave and trust in those who support our farm and well look, we are doing it!! All of us together are making a more beautiful world! <3
