At the Farm Shop we don’t treat cooking as a precise science, nor are we trying to give a comprehensive list of recipes. These are some of our favourite dishes and we hope you’ll give some of them a try. They’ve worked for us on countless occasions but that doesn’t mean, with a bit of imagination and a few tweaks, they can’t be improved. Good luck.

Sticky Shiitake MushroomsBy Ben WatsonCooking the mushrooms in cornflour gives them a rich, meaty texture that pairs beautifully with the sweetness of the caramelised ginger and garlic. Tasty and satisfying.
Kimchi noodle soupBy Ben WatsonKimchi is good in simple ramen style noodle soup. You can make it as simple – or as complicated as you like. Soft boiled egg, nori, chashu pork etc are all optional.
Cucumber PickleBy Ben WatsonThis pickle adds a welcome tang to cold meats or burgers, and is a great way to make your cucumbers last into winter! You'll need to do the prep 24 hours before the cooking.
Stuffed TomatoesBy Redpost Media

Stuffed Tomatoes - or Pomodori al riso as they’re known in Rome. Stuffed anything sounds terribly retro but what goes around comes around and these have many laps left to run. Essentially a risotto in a tomato but because there is less liquid the rice acquires a lovely nutty texture as it bakes in the oven.

Caponata Involtini (aubergine rolls)By Redpost MediaThese little blighters are a combination of Nigella's Involtini and Thomasina Miers Aubergine Caponata but who cares? Caponata is one of those classic Sicilian fusion dishes which, despite its aubergine and tomato roots, can include a whole range of fried and crunchy blanched vegetables; fennel, celery, courgette, cauliflower, squash, red peppers, cucumber etc.  It's more a treatment than a recipe. Wrap in a slice of griddled aubergine and they're great as a snack, vegetarian main, side for meat dishes, part of an antipasta or mezze plate etc etc. And they're surprisingly easy and can be done in stages. Best served lukewarm.
