Gently fry the onion, stirring now and then, for 10 minutes or until softened. Add a splash of water if it looks like catching at any point. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 180˚C/Gas Mark 4. Wipe the mushrooms clean with a damp piece of kitchen paper or clean cloth. Cut them into quarter’s. Break up the chestnuts (they tend to be stuck well to each other!).

Remove the seeds from the oven, drizzle with the oil or butter and bake for 50 minutes, stirring several times. Sprinkle the seeds with salt or Creole spice seasoning while still hot. Let cool completely (they will continue to crisp as they cool) before using. If you don’t use them right away, store them in an airtight container.

“Watermelon’s health benefits extend well beyond its juicy flesh,” said Theresa Shank, a registered dietitian. “The seeds offer almost the same nutrient density of other more common seeds, like pumpkin and sunflower, and the rind is among the richest edible sources of L-citrulline, an amino acid that has been studied extensively in its relation to heart health.”

These rich-flavored nuts are technically the seed of a tropical evergreen tree called Anacardium occidentale, which is native to Brazil, though cashews were also exported to India in the 1550’s. The cashew seed is surrounded by a shell that contains anacardic acid, a skin irritant related to urushiol, which is found in poison ivy. However, no need to panic–it is only the shell that is toxic! Once roasted or heated, as all commercially sold cashews have been (even the ones labeled “raw”), this nut is perfectly safe to eat. Cashews, similar to sesame seeds, are an excellent source of copper, and just 1/4 a cup contains roughly 30% of the DRA of magnesium, phosphorus, and manganese.

Sunda, CBD: Otak otak, spanner-crab curry, finger lime, rice crisps Max Veenhuyzen, Perth editor Part of Southeast Asia’s seemingly endless repertoire of snacks, the steamed banana-leaf wrapped savoury custard known as otak otak (see, also: hor mokin Thailand and amok in Cambodia) is common at hawker centres around Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia and available in myriad permutations starring different seafood, spices and chilli levels. My benchmark version, though, is traceable to this plucky CBD laneway restaurant where the street-food staple is reimagined as a just-set, parfait-like slab of crab curry with a richness coolly offset by pops of finger lime. Grab a dense house-made cracker of puffed rice, start schmearing and revel in one of the most exciting new openings of the year.

Climate change and a growing, increasingly well-fed population pose novel challenges every day. It’s a bit of a paradox that meeting those challenges so often involves solving problems that have been with us for a long, long time.

Remove the dill fronds from their stalks. Chop the fronds and add to the mackerel together with the crème fraîche. Coarsely grate the beetroot and fold gently and briefly into the mackerel. (If you over-mix, you will end up with a bright pink paste.) Cover and refrigerate until needed.
