February is full of quiet abundance. The colours a February is full of quiet abundance. The colours are deeper, the flavours earthier, shaped by frost and the short days.

There are cauliflowers, pale and tight, ready for roasting until their edges catch and brown. Kale and savoy cabbage, dark and crinkled, waiting to soften into sweetness when cooked slowly. Purple sprouting broccoli snaps cleanly in the hand, its stems slender and fresh and ready to be steamed. Swede waits patiently, dense and earthy, asking simply for butter and a bit of time. Celery adds its clean, green note to winter soups and stews.

Sunny citrus brings oranges heavy in the bowl, lemons sharp and glossy, pomegranates bursting with juice and jewelled colour.

February’s harvest has never looked so good.
@gill.meller’s warming chicken ramen is a perfect @gill.meller’s warming chicken ramen is a perfect match for cold and damp winter months. A broth made slowly from a roast chicken miraculously transforms into something rich and reassuring, then filled out with noodles and mushrooms.

We use king oyster and shimeji here, but almost any mushroom will do, bringing their own earthy softness and umami depth to the bowl. Finished with a flavoursome, fudgey Stonegate Estate Organic egg, this dish comes together more simply than you might expect whilst feeling wholesome, generous and deeply satisfying to eat. Steam rising, hands wrapped around the bowl, the cold kept firmly at bay.

Save this one for your winter cooking repertoir:

1 left over whole roast chicken (with a little meat on it)
1 leek trimmed, rinsed, and cut into thin rounds
2 carrots, scrubbed and sliced
1 garlic bulb, cut in half
1 large thumb sized piece of ginger, thinly sliced
1 red chilli, split

To finish the broth

200g mushrooms, sliced
6-8 spring onions trimmed and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons of sesame seeds toasted
3-4 tablespoons of tamari
2 tablespoons of toasted sesame oil
1 lime
1 fresh red chilli
1 small bunch of coriander roughly chopped
4 Stonegate Estate Organic eggs
2 nests of medium noodles

Save this blood orange upside-down cake for a quie Save this blood orange upside-down cake for a quiet Sunday afternoon. This new, seasonal recipe from @gill.meller balances sweetness with a gentle sharpness and a hint of bitterness. You can use ordinary oranges, but blood oranges have something a little extra; their deep colour, their darker flavour, and the knowledge that they are at their absolute peak right now, and won’t be around for long.

As the cake bakes, the fruit softens and caramelises, becoming glossy and fragrant beneath the sponge. It is simple to make, and quietly sensational when turned out onto a plate:

200g unsalted butter, softened
225g caster sugar
3 large Stonegate Estate organic eggs
2 tbls of runny organic honey
6 cardamom pods, bashed and seeds crushed
225g ground almonds
125g fine polenta
1 teaspoon baking powder
A good pinch of sea salt
For the topping:
3 – 4 blood oranges
2 tablespoons caster sugar
