Butternut Squash Soup Ingredients: 2 tablespoons olive oil 3 pounds butternut squash, peeled and chopped (seeds removed) 1 large onion, chopped (white or yellow) 1 large bell pepper, chopped (use jalapeño or hotter for a spicy version) 1 stalk celery, chopped 5 cloves garlic, chopped 2 tablespoons paprika (hot paprika preferred) 1 tablespoon fresh thyme 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1 teaspoon cumin Salt and pepper, to taste 4 cups chicken stock (use vegetable stock for a vegetarian version; up to 6 cups for a thinner soup) For Garnish: Toasted pepitas (optional), red chili flakes, fresh chopped parsley Directions: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add butternut squash, onion, bell pepper, and celery. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until vegetables start to soften and lightly caramelize. Add garlic, paprika, thyme, rosemary, cayenne pepper, and cumin. Stir well and cook for 2 more minutes to release the spices' flavors. Pour in the chicken (or vegetable) stock. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 20 minutes or until all the vegetables are tender. Use an immersion blender to purée the soup until smooth, or transfer the soup to a blender or food processor in batches, then return to the pot. Taste and adjust salt, seasonings, and add more stock or water if a thinner consistency is desired. Simmer for another 5 minutes to enhance the flavors. Garnish with toasted pepitas, red chili flakes, and fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!

From Farm to Fork: The Importance of Sourcing Local and Sustainable Ingredients

In recent years, there has been a growing movement towards sourcing local and sustainable ingredients in the food industry. As consumers become more conscious about the origin and quality of their food, businesses have recognized the significance of embracing this shift. At Khera Trading Company, we understand the value of sourcing local and sustainable ingredients, and we strive to provide our customers with the best options available.

Why is sourcing local and sustainable ingredients important? Let's explore the benefits:

1. Freshness and Quality: By sourcing ingredients locally, we ensure that they are fresh and of high quality. Locally grown produce is harvested at its peak ripeness, resulting in better flavor and nutritional value. The shorter distance between the farm and our customers' plates means less time for the ingredients to lose their freshness.

2. Supporting Local Economy: Choosing local ingredients supports local farmers and producers, contributing to the growth and sustainability of the community. It helps create jobs, boosts the local economy, and fosters a sense of community pride. By sourcing locally, we can help small-scale farmers thrive and maintain their agricultural practices.

3. Environmental Impact: Sourcing locally reduces the carbon footprint associated with transportation. It minimizes the distance food travels, leading to lower emissions and energy consumption. Additionally, supporting sustainable farming practices, such as organic farming or regenerative agriculture, promotes soil health, biodiversity, and water conservation.

4. Transparency and Traceability: Sourcing locally allows for greater transparency and traceability in the supply chain. We can establish direct relationships with local farmers and producers, ensuring that we have a clear understanding of their farming methods and quality standards. This transparency gives our customers peace of mind, knowing exactly where their food comes from.

At Khera Trading Company, we prioritize sourcing local and sustainable ingredients for our wide range of food products. We work closely with local farmers and producers to ensure that our offerings meet the highest quality standards. By selecting local ingredients, we contribute to a more sustainable food system while providing our customers with exceptional products.

By choosing Khera Trading Company, you can be confident that you are supporting local communities, promoting environmental sustainability, and enjoying the freshest and finest ingredients available. Join us in embracing the farm-to-fork journey and experience the difference that local and sustainable sourcing can make! For more information on our local and sustainable ingredients, visit our website at www.kheratrading.com. Together, let's make a positive impact on our plates and the planet!

Foraging is one of my absolute favourite things to do. We are so very blessed where we live that within waking distance we have huge amounts of Hawthorn, Elder Trees and we found a lonesome wild Apple Tree last year. . . The elderberries will be turned into, Cough Syrup, Cordial, and an Apple and Elderberry Jelly. Also dried for addition to other things later on. . . The Apples will become filling for Pies and Crumbles also Apple Sauce and the peels and cores will become Pectin. . . The Hawthorn will be made into a Hawthorn and Apple Jelly and also dried for addition to teas and other more medicinal concoctions. . . All in all a great little harvest, time for a brew now and a little moment until we get stuck into prepping all this lot up. . . Oh and PS I already tried an apple in the field where we found the tree and they are sooooo yummy and they SQUEAK!!! I Lurve squeaky apples!!!! #bloosfood #thebloopixie #foraging #foragingforfood #wildfood #seasonalingredients #eatseasonally #apples #elderberries #hawthornberries #sundaymorning https://www.instagram.com/p/B2JiekRnqtE/?igshid=17ocywwe42iy9

Roasted Jersey Royals & Radishes with Honey & Lemon

Spring feast! My Roasted Jersey Royals & Radishes with honey & lemon which was recently voted a one-pan hit! Rich in colour, these first of the season radishes are heavenly when eaten raw, sliced, julienned, pickled (see last post for my quick and easy recipe) or as I have shown here, roasted to utterly crisp perfection. I love how they still maintain their characteristic crunch, working hand in hand with the soft, golden body of the Jersey Royals. Admittedly, this is an element of another spring dish creation I will be telling you all about soon, but as it’s so darn delicious in its own right, I thought I would share this recipe with you asap. No fussy or complicated ingredients here (a mere five in total)...just really simple, delicious flavours that work jolly well together. I also appreciate something tasty that I can knock up on the go with only a pan to wash up. Having recently opened up the panel to you, my important readers, in regards to what elements of a recipe speak to you, make you think ‘I know I can realistically cook that’ - and possibly more importantly - ‘want to cook’, I have become increasingly aware of just how much the subject of convenience in the kitchen plays a key role with your home cooking needs. It was at the top of 90 per cent of your lists so needless to say, it reaffirmed what I already knew (as in all honesty, I am no different to the rest of you). With this in mind, you can expect many more recipe ideas like the one below making an appearance both here and on instagram in the next few months. As late spring/early summer beckons, now seems even more relevant with the sunshine-filled days and balmy alfresco evenings all in sight....equating to much less time on your feet in the kitchen. WIN. With the array of gorgeous, fresh seasonal ingredients available between now and September, I could easily pretend this will be much more of a challenge than I know to be true. I look forward to sharing more light yet satisfying - and above all ‘convenient’ ideas with you soon. In the meantime,  you’ve got this dish in a ‘wham bam, thank you mam’ 30 (And as a bonus, for those of you who haven’t tried crispy roasted radishes before, you’re definitely in for a treat) 

Roasted Jersey Royals & Radishes with Honey & Lemon Serves 4

300g breakfast radishes, larger ones halved (I also used purple but you can use any radish you wish) 500g Jersey Royal potatoes, larger ones halved or quartered (I used baby Jersey Royals here which will save you doing this) 2 tbsp olive oil 1 small lemon, zest and juice 2 tbsp runny honey

1. Preheat oven to 220C, fan 200C. Place the potatoes into a large, deep roasting tin and drizzle over the oil, honey & lemon juice with some zest, then give it a good shake to evenly coat. Season with a little sea salt and black pepper. Roast for 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are starting to crisp with a lovely golden brown colour. After about 10 minutes add the radishes and give the tray another shake. If you feel the radishes need a bit of help with the oil and honey, feel free to add a little more at this stage. They should be ready when the radishes are crisp and have bled their colour a bit. Perfect as a side or added to a spring salad (for which the recipe is on the following post!) 

To make this vegan friendly, simply substitute honey with agave nectar, or a little maple syrup if you prefer.
