This recipe is inspired by attending a fermentation workshop with Trish Dent. Fermenting foods is a way of preserving foods but also a way of converting starches and sugars into lactic acid by Lactobacilli bacteria (good bacteria) and inhibiting bad bacteria. This helps promote a healthy intestinal flora.

Chocolate and coconut together is just heaven. And the consistency of this mousse is simply perfect once it has set. You can choose to sprinke with chopped chocolate, toasted coconut flakes or a few berries but it’s also great just as it is.
The recipe is for 4 portions.

This bright pink soup is hard to beat. Full of goodness, appetising colour and texture. It is packed with essential nutrients to improve health and fight disease.

My family loves this Christmas cake – an old recipe of my mum’s which makes it very special to us.

This is a lovely morish bread, great with just butter.

Quick to make and healthy lunch or dinner – and the kids love it.
Serves 4.
