Mushroom & Thyme ‘sausage’ rolls heading out to a festive party this afternoon. We egg wash these three times to get that lovely golden finish. I always think they look like little fishes, especially when all lined up. #canapes #partyfood #vegetariancanapes #mushroom #thyme #sausagerolls #vegetariansausagerolls #edibleflowercooks #theedibleflower

We had some lovely festive drinks with our architects @studioidir this week, so I thought I should share another of the lovely illustrations they did for The Edible Flower Masterplan. This is a springtime view of our fields when they are finally (magically?!) transformed into an edible forest, an orchard and more annual no dig vegetable growing. You can see the house and the farm buildings up in the far right corner. So just a little bit of work to do then...

I’m kind of in love with this Burmese Pickled Tea Leaf Salad from @meemalee @burmesebeyond cookbook - the pickled tea leaf is sharp and slightly bitter - it’s mixed with tomatoes, cabbage (I used a green one from the garden, I think white is more usual), fried garlic chips, roasted chana dal, fried peanuts, toasted sesame seeds, lime and chilli. Fresh and zingy, the perfect antidote to December excess! We’re serving this up with lots of other tasty treats at our Winter Solstice supper club dinner n a couple of weeks and I cannot wait! The amazing pickled tea come from Myanmar but is supplied by @bayin_foods - who are based in Dublin! Thanks for sending it to me Katrina! #recipetesting #burmesefood #myanmarfood #pickledtea #pickledtealeafsalad #pickledtealeaf #laphet #wintersolstice #supperclub #edibleflowercooks #theedibleflower #mattinwoodmasterclass

It’s December, so it finally feels appropriate to post this picture of a Brie & Cranberry Pithvier that I made and styled for @spar_ni Christmas magazine back in August. You can pick up the magazine in Spar’s across NI and there are some lovely festive recipe ideas in there - this one is a beaut, delicious, veggie friendly, looks very impressive yet is super easy to make. Beautiful photo by @sharoncosgrovephotography , art direction by @genesisbelfast , props & styling by me and the client was @spar_ni #pithvier #christmas #sparni #brie #cranberry #brieandcranberrypie #foodstyling #edibleflowerstyles #edibleflowercooks #theedibleflower

Over the last few months we’ve been working with the very talented @studioidir , who have expertly guided us through the process of creating a Masterplan for our fields and outbuildings here at The Edible Flower - it’s exciting and overwhelming, exhilarating and very scary too. It feels like the Masterplan sets out what we might be doing for the next 40 years of our lives, and as a person who likes to change it up every couple of years that is a bit frightening... We don’t have a large budget so we’ll be doing everything little by little when we have enough cash and time to take the next step. Next year we hope to put a catering & teaching kitchen in the corner outbuilding and a new toilet block for event guests in the courtyard. We’re all looking forward to a bit more work/home separation. @katie.string.er has created six beautiful images of how the buildings and fields will (hopefully) look in the future. This is a view of our courtyard with the new kitchen tucked in the far corner on the left, beside the Cow Byre (our current event space), The Hub straight ahead with views to the West over the fields, a viewing tower (!) tucked in the corner on the right (utilising an existing two storey building) and some new self-catering accommodation in the building on the right. This is definitely a long term project - so if all this is done in 15 years I’ll be happy! More of @katie.string.er ‘s lovely images to come over the next few weeks... #studioidir #edibleflowermasterplan #courtyard #thestreet #farmbuildings #outbuildings #theedibleflower

Thai Yellow Curry made with a lush Black Futsu Squash & Potatoes. Photographed on this beautiful new tabletop made today by @edibleflowerbrews & @candaharcats for our upcoming Winter Solstice Supper Club. But back to the curry - We’ll be making this at our Asian Flavours Veggie Cooking Class - including making the paste from scratch - on the 7th Feb. There is only one ticket to this class left - as all our New Year events & classes almost sold out in no time at all. Anyway, if you fancy learning how to make this, plus a host of other lovely veggie Asian dishes, snap up that last ticket. See the link in my bio. #yellowcurry #thaiyellowcurry #thaifood #thaicurry #vegetarian #veggiethaifood #foodphotography #mattinwoodmasterclass #edibleflowercooks #theedibleflower
