Hearty Winter Stew

This deeply nourishing bowl is comfort food with quiet sophistication. Earthy black rice forms a rich, velvety base, slowly cooked until tender and infused with warmth. Sweet organic carrots soften into the grains, while fresh garden chard melts gently through the dish, adding both colour and vitality. Flaked mackerel brings a savoury depth and natural richness, perfectly balanced by the bright, zesty heat of spicy lime pickle that lifts every mouthful. Finished with a handful of fresh rocket for a peppery bite, this is a meal that feels grounding yet alive — robust, vibrant and deeply satisfying. It’s the kind of food that restores you from the inside out: simple, honest ingredients brought together with care, best enjoyed slowly at the table as the light spills in from the garden beyond.
