Devoys Organic Farm - Recipes
Welcome to our recipe pages!
Here at the Farm we are lucky to have a great range of fresh organic ingredients to
choose from, but it can still sometimes be a bit of a challenge to encourage some kids
to eat their veg!
These tried and tested recipes are as tasty as they are healthy - and can persuade
even the most veg-phobic folks to 'eat their greens'.
Colcannon
- an easy way to eat more greens!
Ingredients (serves 5)
500g kale
500g potatoes
2 leeks
250ml milk
salt and pepper to taste
pinch ground mace
125g butter
Method
Prep 10 mins / Cook 20 mins
1) In a large saucepan, boil or saute kale until tender; remove and chop or blend well. Set aside and keep warm. Boil potatoes until tender. Remove from heat and drain.
2) Chop leeks, green parts as well as white, and simmer in just enough milk to cover, until they are soft.
3) Season and mash potatoes well. Stir in cooked leeks and milk. Blend in the kale and heat until the whole is a pale green fluff. Make a well in the centre and pour in the melted butter. Mix well. Enjoy!
Chard, leek and egg pie
Ingredients (serves 5/6)
3 leeks
10 chard stems
1 large garlic clove
2 tbsp olive oil
4 leaves of frozen filo pastry (cut in half to make 8 squares)
5 eggs
1/2 tsp nutmeg
180g Feta cheese, crumbled
1 tbsp sesame seeds
Method
Prep 25 mins / Cook 25 mins
Preheat oven to 180C
Chop the leeks into slices.
Separate the chard stems from the leaf and chop the stems. Set the leaves aside.
Gentry fry the garlic, leek and chard stems in the olive until softened (about 10 minutes).
Add the chopped chard leaves and cook very slowly (about 10 minutes)
Meanwhile, lay the sheets of filo pastry in a shallow ovenproof dish, with lots of overlap.
Spread the cooked vegetables onto the pastry. Beat the eggs and pour over the vegetable mixture, then top with nutmeg and Feta cheese.
Carefully fold the filo pastry over the mixture and then sprinkle with sesame seeds and drizzle with olive oil.
Put in the hot oven and cook for 25 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown. Delicious.
