FOOD IS flying off the shelves<br />

of a community pantry in an<br />

Edgeware park.<br />

The community pantry in<br />

Packe St park is an initiative<br />

started by the Edgeware Korean<br />

Presbyterian Church and the<br />

Page 4 Page 11<br />

Pantry emptied overnight<br />

Packe Street Park and Community<br />

Garden group.<br />

The two groups joined forces<br />

to find a way for surplus food<br />

to be used for people in need in<br />

the community.<br />

The pantry is stocked every<br />

week or 10 days, and overnight,<br />

the food is gone.<br />

The park already had a book<br />

and plant exchange operating,<br />

and one of the park co-ordinators,<br />

Helen Kidd suggested the<br />

group should collaborate with<br />

members of the church who<br />

had the initial idea of the community<br />

food pantry.<br />

“An old fridge was purchased<br />

and set up, and it is being well<br />

used already. Food items donated<br />

and put in the fridge go<br />

very quickly, and as it becomes<br />

better known, and the community<br />

garden yields fresh produce<br />

in abundance, we expect it to be<br />

very well used,” Ms Kidd said.<br />

Questions<br />

remain on<br />

estuary<br />

edge<br />

repairs<br />

• Matt Slaughter<br />

THE SOUTHSHORE and South<br />

New Brighton estuary edge will<br />

be repaired – the question is<br />

when and how?<br />

In August the city council<br />

made the decision to repair<br />

earthquake damage along the<br />

estuary edge, which has left<br />

the area prone to flooding and<br />

erosion.<br />

Concerned residents and the<br />

Coastal-Burwood Community<br />

Board had been asking for the<br />

repairs to happen since the 2011<br />

earthquake.<br />

Some community members<br />

said although they are pleased the<br />

repairs will go-ahead they want<br />

the city council to come forward<br />

with the specific details on when<br />

these will likely start and finish<br />

and what they will entail.<br />

Said city council head of parks<br />

Andrew Rutledge: “At this stage,<br />

we don’t have specific start and<br />

finish dates for this project. Currently,<br />

we are in the process of<br />

developing a project brief and<br />

preliminary costing and design.<br />

This project has yet to be fully<br />

scoped.”<br />

Calls for microphones unheard<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

THE CALLS of people who<br />

attend Linwood-Central-<br />

Heathcote Community Board<br />

meetings are going unheard –<br />

literally.<br />

Linwood Ward city councillor<br />

Yani Johanson said there are no<br />

microphones at the board’s meeting<br />

room, in spite of his regular<br />

requests over more than 15 years<br />

to have these installed.<br />

Cr Johanson said some members<br />

of the public who had spoken<br />

at board meetings found it<br />

so hard to hear, they had stopped<br />

attending to give their input.<br />

“People that used to go to our<br />

boardroom and attend the meetings<br />

on a regular basis have said<br />

to me that they don’t go anymore<br />

because they can’t hear.<br />

“They cannot follow what’s going<br />

on, they cannot understand<br />

what’s being said.”<br />

He said recently there was a<br />

board hearing that had to be adjourned<br />

and delayed until a portable<br />

microphone was brought in.<br />

Cr Johanson said the fact that<br />

the board is still waiting for<br />

microphones to be installed after<br />

years of asking for them is unfair.<br />

“We’ve had every excuse under<br />

the sun about why council staff<br />

won’t support it. I think what<br />

QUIET: The Linwood-Central-Heathcote community board has<br />

no microphones in its boardrooms and members of the public<br />

are being put off attending meetings because of this. ​<br />

makes me more angry is, A: the<br />

fact that it’s taken so long, but<br />

B: that other boardrooms who<br />

have less of an issue have got<br />

them ahead of ours . . . I think it’s<br />

inherently unfair.”<br />

City council head of community<br />

support, governance and<br />

partnerships John Filsell said<br />

microphones and audio improvements<br />

for the boardroom would<br />

cost $35,000 but funds are not<br />

currently available for these.<br />

Said Mr Filsell: “Technology<br />

improvements are part of the<br />

Long Term Plan and annual plan<br />

process and use the organisational<br />

prioritisation framework to<br />

prioritise investment decisions.<br />

Linwood is one of five boardrooms<br />

yet to receive a technology<br />

refresh, and demand from the<br />

organisation is always greater<br />

than the available funding,” he<br />

said.<br />

But Cr Johanson disputed the<br />

idea that the city council could<br />

not afford microphones for the<br />

boardroom.<br />

“They put in a new audiovisual<br />

system into the council,<br />

council got new microphones,<br />

they went through two sets of<br />

microphones and our board still<br />

doesn’t have any. So, to say that<br />

it’s a budget issue is just a nonsense<br />

in my view.”<br />

Mr Filsell said “Linwood<br />

Central-Heathcote Community<br />

Boardroom is on the list of remaining<br />

boardrooms for prioritisation<br />

and the feedback from the<br />

community board will feed into<br />

the prioritisation. The technology<br />

refresh will be prioritised as<br />

funds become available.”<br />

Cr Johanson said “It shouldn’t<br />

be a political decision about<br />

whether or not someone should<br />

be able to hear when they go<br />

to a local community board, it<br />

should be part of the democratic<br />

process.”<br />

In Brief<br />

FLOOD PROTECTION<br />

Repair and maintenance to 40m<br />

of the stopbank on Kibblewhite<br />

St in New Brighton was set to<br />

finish on Friday. City council<br />

staff recently conducted an<br />

inspection of the stopbank and<br />

noticed some areas of the base<br />

of the stopbank needed to be<br />

repaired.<br />

CAR PARK REPAIR<br />

A complete car park renewal at<br />

Cowles Stadium on Pages Rd<br />

will start this month and should<br />

be completed by early March<br />

next year. Half of the car park<br />

will be under construction at a<br />

time, reducing the number of<br />

available to the public and<br />

there will be some noise<br />

disturbance.<br />

TSUNAMI PREPARATION<br />

Tsunami sirens were sounded<br />

along the coastline between<br />

Brooklands and Taylors Mistake<br />

last Sunday at 11am as part of<br />

a biannual exercise that checks<br />

they are operating correctly. City<br />

council head of Civil Defence<br />

and emergency management<br />

Rob Orchard said the routine<br />

tests are a good reminder to<br />

people in coastal and riverside<br />

areas that they should have an<br />

evacuation plan in place, so that<br />

everyone in the family knows<br />

what to do and where to go if<br />

there is a tsunami evacuation.<br />

Lifetime dedicated to<br />

helping children recognised<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

A LIFETIME dedicated to<br />

giving children with disabilities<br />

the best start in life has seen Jan<br />

Murphy recognised as a local<br />

hero.<br />

The Burnside resident has<br />

spent more than 40 years working<br />

at The Champion Centre and<br />

has successfully developed intervention<br />

programs to support<br />

children and their families.<br />

In recognition of her hard<br />

work, Mrs Murphy, 67, has won<br />

a Westfield Local Hero award for<br />

her contribution to the community<br />

along with a $10,000 grant<br />

to continue the work.<br />

The Champion Centre is a notfor-profit<br />

organisation based in<br />

Burwood which provides multidisciplinary<br />

early intervention<br />

services to infants and young<br />

children with disabilities.<br />

This includes children with<br />

Down’s syndrome, autism spectrum<br />

disorder, dyspraxia and<br />

global development delay.<br />

More than 2000 children and<br />

families have been supported<br />

through the intervention programmes.<br />

Mrs Murphy said she felt<br />

Jan Murphy ​<br />

“overwhelmed” and “humbled”<br />

to receive the award.<br />

“For many years now I have<br />

had the honour and privilege of<br />

knowing and working alongside<br />

infants, small children and their<br />

families who find themselves on<br />

an unexpected journey – that of<br />

developmental difference and<br />

disability.<br />

“There are many reasons why<br />

developmental differences exist<br />

but, for me, the constant in it all<br />

is the enormous courage of the<br />

parents and their remarkable<br />

children. In truth, they are the<br />

heroes,” Mrs Murphy said.<br />

She started out as a speechlanguage<br />

therapist for the now<br />

Ministry of Education and was<br />

based in speech therapy clinics<br />

in schools.<br />

But early on in her career, Mrs<br />

Murphy felt very strongly the<br />

injustice children with complex<br />

learning needs could not access<br />

any of the resources they<br />

needed.<br />

In 1978 she joined a small<br />

band of professional women<br />

who believed they could make a<br />

difference to the lives of children<br />

and established The Champion<br />

Centre.<br />

“The Champion Centre is an<br />

amazing place . . . I love that<br />

every day of the week these<br />

families join highly-skilled and<br />

committed professionals and<br />

together they enable their children<br />

to achieve more than ever<br />

thought possible.<br />

Mrs Murphy said her goal<br />

for the future is The Champion<br />

Centre may be sustainable and<br />

accessible for any children and<br />

families who need it.<br />

500,000 pizzas cooked<br />

at popular venue<br />

• By Jess Gibson<br />

A POPULAR Woolston eatery<br />

is retiring its wood-fired oven<br />

after using it to cook more than<br />

500,000 pizzas – enough to feed<br />

the population of Christchurch.<br />

Cassels The Brewery Bar<br />

and Restaurant, located in The<br />

Tannery, upgraded to a larger<br />

pizza oven last Wednesday to<br />

help keep up with growing<br />

demand.<br />

Alisdair Cassel, who owns The<br />

Tannery, opened the bar and restaurant<br />

shortly after the February<br />

22, 2011, earthquake as a place for<br />

the community to gather while<br />

the city dusted itself off.<br />

Mr Cassel said the number of<br />

pizzas cooked was “unbelievable.”<br />

UPSIZING:<br />

Alasdair<br />

Joe Shanks<br />

replaced the<br />

eight-year-old<br />

wood-fired<br />

pizza oven at<br />

Cassels The<br />

Brewery Bar<br />

and Restaurant<br />

for a larger<br />

one to keep up<br />

with growing<br />

demand.<br />

“I would not have believed it<br />

when we put it in. We love that<br />

everyone loves our pizzas as<br />

much as we do.”<br />

Mr Cassel runs the establishment<br />

with his son Zak Cassels<br />

and son-in-law Joe Shanks.<br />

Other than pizza, the spot is<br />

best known for its award-winning<br />

beer which is brewed on-site.<br />

$14.5m development for high school<br />

• By Claire Booker<br />

MORE DETAILS have now<br />

emerged about the $14.5<br />

million Mairehau High School<br />

expansion.<br />

Principal Harry Romana<br />

told <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> phase one<br />

of the project would see new<br />

hard material, technology,<br />

hospitality and other specialist<br />

classrooms rebuilt.<br />

The proposed 500 build<br />

roll master-plan development<br />

is planned to start on-site in<br />

December next year.<br />

The decile 4 school’s roll is<br />

expected to grow to 500 pupils,<br />

and the master plan will allow<br />

for a roll build of up to 800.<br />

Mr Romana said while the<br />

design is in its very early stages,<br />

it offers an opportunity to<br />

provide a new 21stcentury<br />

technology<br />

and supported<br />

learning facility.<br />

“Consideration<br />

has also been given<br />

to rebuilding our<br />

gymnasium changing<br />

rooms,” he said.<br />

Each phase of<br />

the plan is aligned<br />

to the greater<br />

Christchurch<br />

Network of Schools<br />

and the Ministry of Education<br />

prediction of roll growth.<br />

“The new building (phase<br />

one) caters for the future of<br />

teaching and learning practices,”<br />

Mr Romana said.<br />

The school’s revised masterplan<br />

reflects the latest budget<br />

and MOE growth projection<br />

Harry Romana ​<br />

figures.<br />

The current main<br />

structure of the<br />

school’s gymnasium<br />

is sound, but<br />

Mr Romana said<br />

there is a real need<br />

to rebuild storage,<br />

changing room and<br />

classroom facilities.<br />

Phase two of the<br />

development will<br />

include the science,<br />

administration,<br />

performing arts and library<br />

blocks of the school.<br />

Mr Romana said the modern<br />

facilities and fittings of the<br />

new buildings will be a great<br />

start to the school’s rebuild.<br />

“The whole area will allow<br />

curriculum deliveries through<br />

specialist areas,” he said.<br />

The master plan also<br />

outlines the aspirations and<br />

fundamental learning needs of<br />

the school and the ministry.<br />

“Our technology, hospitality,<br />

ICT, support learning, and PE<br />

and health teachers are meeting<br />

and working together on<br />

the design of the building,” Mr<br />

Romana said.<br />

Mr Romana said the highest<br />

projected roll before the<br />

completion of the project is<br />

expected to be able to be accommodated<br />

for within the<br />

existing buildings.<br />

“We are very excited about<br />

our master plan and future<br />

building project. We will<br />

continue to develop positive<br />

outcomes and learning<br />

experiences for our students,”<br />

he said.<br />

St Albans community pantry in high demand<br />

• From page 1<br />

Jaehee Kim is the community<br />

ministry leader at the<br />

church, which has been in St<br />

Albans for 16 years.<br />

Mrs Kim said the idea came<br />

about because the church<br />

wanted to give to the community<br />

and provide a space to<br />

share food.<br />

“We noticed the food has<br />

been taken very quickly. It<br />

confirmed to<br />

us that there<br />

are needs<br />

in the community.<br />

We<br />

recently have<br />

received more<br />

donations to<br />

the pantry, but<br />

we still need more. Through<br />

the community pantry we<br />

hope to develop community<br />

spirit to grow<br />

together,” she<br />

said.<br />

Ms Kidd<br />

said volunteers<br />

from both<br />

groups have<br />

come together<br />

for working<br />

bees to support each other,<br />

and she said it is this kind of<br />

collaborative approach which<br />

strengthens communities.<br />

“The community around<br />

Packe St Park is very diverse,<br />

and we know we have people<br />

in that community who need<br />

practical support. The community<br />

pantry also provides<br />

an opportunity for people or<br />

businesses who have surplus<br />

food to donate it, knowing<br />

that it will be going where it is<br />

needed,” she said.<br />

Photo hunt keeps the past alive<br />

THE ARTS Centre as we know it<br />

has been part of Christchurch’s<br />

landscape for generations –<br />

but this glimpse of one of its<br />

buildings standing alone on a<br />

dusty unpaved road is unfamiliar<br />

to many of us.<br />

From 1877 until the mid-1950s,<br />

the Arts Centre was buzzing<br />

with students, as Canterbury<br />

College (now Canterbury<br />

University) and Christchurch<br />

Girls’ and Boys’ High Schools<br />

used the buildings as a campus at<br />

various times.<br />

The buildings were transferred<br />

to the Arts Centre Trust Board<br />

when Canterbury University<br />

completed its move to Ilam in the<br />

1970s.<br />

Designed by prominent<br />

architect Benjamin Mountfort,<br />

this Gothic Revival tower served<br />

as the Observatory and Biology<br />

building, with a telescope gifted<br />

by James Townsend located in<br />

the Observatory right at the top<br />

when this photo was taken.<br />

The historic Townsend<br />

Telescope, a six-inch refractor<br />

made by Thomas Cooke and<br />

Sons of York, England, in 1864,<br />

was recovered from the rubble of<br />

the Arts Centre tower after the<br />

February 22, 2011, earthquake.<br />

The Arts Centre and<br />

Canterbury University plan to<br />

restore the building and the<br />

telescope.<br />

HISTORY: This photo of the Observatory, Canterbury College,<br />

circa 1895, was entered in the 2013 Christchurch City Libraries’<br />

Photo Hunt.<br />

The Beca Christchurch<br />

Heritage Festival <strong>2019</strong> starts<br />

on Monday and this year, as<br />

part of the festival, Christchurch<br />

City Libraries will celebrate 10<br />

years of the Christchurch Photo<br />

Hunt.<br />

Over the past decade, the photo<br />

hunt has collected hundreds of<br />

great photos like this one, and<br />

Christchurch City Libraries<br />

hopes people will dust off their<br />

collections and unearth some<br />

more treasures.<br />

The photo hunt competition<br />

runs from now until <strong>October</strong> 31.<br />

Your photo hunt photos will be<br />

carefully scanned and preserved<br />

as part of the Christchurch City<br />

Libraries’ collection.<br />

They will then be loaded<br />

onto the Discovery Wall at<br />

CELEBRATION: To check<br />

out the Beca Christchurch<br />

Heritage Festival events taking<br />

place at the Arts Centre, visit<br />

You can also see them at<br />

Estuary edge<br />

questions remain<br />

•From page 1<br />

Said departing Coastal-<br />

Burwood Community Board<br />

deputy chairman Tim Sintes,<br />

who has been one of the main<br />

campaigners for the estuary<br />

edge repairs: “We have been<br />

given a deadline, which is 2020<br />

when things will start happening<br />

but an actual start time, I’m<br />

not sure.<br />

“We know there’s a commitment<br />

to do something, but what<br />

will it be? That’s the question<br />

I’m getting asked at the moment<br />

from the community,” he said.<br />

Southshore Residents Association<br />

chairwoman Lynda<br />

Burdekin said some clarity on<br />

these details would make the<br />

repairs start to feel real after<br />

years of asking for them.<br />

“Once you can see that something<br />

is going to be happening<br />

about this time, you get that<br />

sense of progress . . . finally, we<br />

got our point of view through to<br />

the council and that was a huge<br />

achievement but now we’ve kind<br />

of got, well nothing much has<br />

been really happening.’’<br />

In spite of this, Mrs Burdenkin<br />

said the city council<br />

had been in contact with the<br />

residents association about the<br />

repairs and she trusts these will<br />

be done to a high standard and<br />

the finer details on them will be<br />

revealed soon.<br />

Special events for cyclists<br />

CHRISTCHURCH cyclists will<br />

spin their wheels for Biketober<br />

and get involved in special events<br />

across the city.<br />

More experienced cyclists will<br />

be able to join the Canterbury<br />

Mountain Bike Club on a social<br />

ride around Bottle Lake Forest<br />

on Sunday.<br />

Keener participants will have<br />

from the start of Biketober until<br />

<strong>October</strong> 25 to take up the Passport<br />

Challenge.<br />

An online map features more<br />

than 40 destinations where<br />

cyclists can pick up the unique<br />

code and fill up their “passports”.<br />

Some spots offer deals for anyone<br />

arriving by bike during <strong>October</strong>.<br />

A prize pool valued at over $7000<br />

value is up for grabs.<br />

You can also race into the free<br />

Passport One-Day Challenge on<br />

Saturday, <strong>October</strong> 26. Powering<br />

up from 9am, see how many destinations<br />

you can get to by 4pm.<br />

Cyclists will become artists,<br />

drawing a picture with their<br />

bikes using GPS navigation<br />

during the Biketober Strava Art<br />

Contest.<br />

They will also be able to explore<br />

the city while taking in the SCAPE<br />

Public Art season. People are<br />

PEDAL POWER: Biketober will involve a number of cycling<br />

events across Christchurch, including a social ride around Bottle<br />

Lake Forest on Sunday. ​<br />

invited to use the city council’s<br />

SmartView to find their favourite<br />

public artworks and take a selfie to<br />

win a prize.<br />

Cyclists can also join the<br />

Climate Crisis Progress Ride on<br />

<strong>October</strong> 17.<br />

Guided by experts, the free<br />

ride will provide an opportunity<br />

to look at architecture, transport<br />

and the environment and to<br />

learn about moves to deal with<br />

the climate crisis.<br />

City council planning and delivery<br />

transport manager Lynette<br />

Ellis says Biketober emphasises<br />

the importance of the city’s sustainable<br />

approach to transport.<br />

“Christchurch’s investment in<br />

cycleways is vital to addressing<br />

climate change, creating healthier<br />

communities and reducing<br />

congestion, so it is great to see<br />

residents make the most of the<br />

new network,” Ms Ellis said.<br />

“Biketober celebrates the many<br />

positive outcomes of the city’s<br />

new transport infrastructure,<br />

encouraging people to have some<br />

fun and get back on their bikes.”<br />

The month-long cycling event<br />

will finish with a Halloween ride<br />

Departing Coastal-Burwood Community Board<br />

Concerns for future<br />

DEPARTING Coastal-Burwood<br />

Community Board member Tim<br />

Baker reflects on his role on the<br />

board over the last three years.<br />

Being elected on to the<br />

Burwood <strong>Pegasus</strong> Community<br />

Board [now Coastal-Burwood<br />

Community Board] between the<br />

September 10 and February<br />

11 earthquakes<br />

meant the job description<br />

changed.<br />

I was involved with<br />

hundreds of meetings.<br />

EQC, Insurance, orange<br />

zone, red zone, green<br />

zone, TC 1,2 and 3 and<br />

much more.<br />

Then there were<br />

infrastructure meetings,<br />

new bridges, and new facilities<br />

including QEII, Aranui Community<br />

Centre and South Brighton<br />

Community Hall, roads, sewers,<br />

new subdivisions, parks, pier<br />

repair, red zone future, water<br />

quality and mental health. I<br />

have enjoyed being an elected<br />

member for the community. I<br />

have learned a life time of information.<br />

Tim Baker<br />

The Christchurch East Labour<br />

electorate members have been<br />

a very important support and<br />

source of advice.<br />

Being part of this team, being<br />

able to discuss some topics with<br />

our local MP sharing thoughts<br />

was vital for me to make some<br />

decisions or the way I<br />

voted in board meetings.<br />

The New Brighton<br />

Master Plan is a very<br />

good plan and I say<br />

well done to the board<br />

members. However,<br />

I believe that the Hot<br />

Water Pools - He Puna<br />

Taimoana, will cost the<br />

ratepayer $1m per year<br />

after a year.<br />

I believe Southshore should<br />

have been Red Zoned and building<br />

in the hazarded areas is not<br />

good long term. That house<br />

insurance or lack of, is going to<br />

be the number one topic for the<br />

next 10 years.<br />

I wish the new elected<br />

members all the best as there is<br />

still an enormous job to do and<br />

decisions to make.<br />

Oceanside Jiu-Jitsu<br />

win national titles<br />

SPORT<br />

• By Jacob Page<br />

A NEW jiu-jitsu club at South<br />

New Brighton has wasted little<br />

time in earning two national titles.<br />

The Oceanside Jiu-Jitsu Club<br />

started out of the South New<br />

Brighton Surf Life Saving Club<br />

three months ago and came back<br />

from the National Gi Championships<br />

in Auckland with two gold,<br />

two silver and a bronze.<br />

Founding member Hayden<br />

Smith said after living his life in<br />

the east-side of Christchurch,<br />

he wanted to give back to the<br />

community and offer something<br />

which was not available in New<br />

Brighton.<br />

“There’s nothing else like us<br />

out here and we’ve grown quickly<br />

from the four founding members<br />

to now have more than 40.<br />

Hayden said the club teaches<br />

jiu-jitsu without the need for<br />

people to purchase the Gi uniform.<br />

“It just eliminates a cost barrier<br />

for people and can make<br />

things more relaxed.”<br />

Smith won gold in the under-<br />

70kg purple belt class, while Kris<br />

Karson also triumphed in the<br />

under-82kg blue belt class.<br />

Kieran Smith earned silver in<br />

the under-88kg blue belt class<br />

and Max Mills gained second<br />

competitiveness and letting new<br />

“The medals that we won are a<br />

reflection on the club as a whole,<br />

everyone helps people train for<br />

those kind of events.<br />

“We do try to push<br />

competitions as a way for people<br />

to push themselves outside<br />

their comfort-zones but it is not<br />

mandatory.”<br />

Coastal Spirit fifth in<br />

South Island tournament<br />

• By Jacob Page<br />

THE COASTAL Spirit 12 grade<br />

girls football team finished fifth<br />

at a South Island tournament in<br />

Blenheim last week.<br />

The team bounced back from<br />

and opening 3-2 loss to eventual<br />

tournament winners Southland<br />

to earn a 6-1 win over Waimak<br />

United.<br />

A 2-2 draw with South<br />

Canterbury and a 1-1 stalemate<br />

with FC Nelson kept their finals<br />

hopes alive before a 1-0 loss to<br />

eventual runners-up Cashmere<br />

Technical.<br />

A 1-0 win over Marlborough<br />

was enough to see them into<br />

the play-off for fifth on finals<br />

day.<br />

Coastal Spirit gained a 3-1 win<br />

over South Canterbury in their<br />

last game to finish fifth.<br />

Emma Johnstone was the<br />

team’s most valuable player<br />

while Ruby Hale earned the<br />

golden glove award for her efforts<br />

in-goal.<br />

The team was given the<br />

tournament’s fair play award for<br />

their style of play and spirit in<br />

which they took to the field.<br />

Southland beat Cashmere<br />

Technical 2-1 in the final.

Tasty Bites<br />

Cooking with what is in season<br />

Lemons and fennel are in<br />

season and they make a<br />

perfect partnership. This<br />

subtle combination works<br />

beautifully on its own<br />

as a light dinner or will<br />

accompany seafood, pork<br />

and lamb<br />

Lemon and fennel risotto<br />

Ingredients<br />

1500ml vegetable stock, hot<br />

2 lemons<br />

2 Tbsp olive oil<br />

1 Tbsp butter<br />

2 shallots<br />

1 tsp fennel seeds, crushed<br />

3 bulbs fennel, sliced thinly and<br />

tops reserved<br />

400g risotto rice, such as arborio<br />

or carnaroli<br />

200ml dry white wine<br />

100g parmesan cheese, finely<br />

grated<br />

1 cup fennel fronds<br />

½ purple olives, stones removed<br />

50ml olive oil<br />

sea salt and cracked pepper<br />

Directions<br />

Bring the stock to the boil. In a<br />

medium-sized saucepan, heat the<br />

oil and butter, add fennel seeds<br />

and shallots and cook gently<br />

for 3min. Add the sliced fennel<br />

bulbs and cover with a lid and<br />

cook for about 15min until the<br />

fennel has softened and become<br />

sweet and fragrant.<br />

Add the zest of one lemon and<br />

juice from half.<br />

Add the rice and stir well so<br />

the rice gets coated. Cook until<br />

the rice becomes lightly toasted.<br />

Add wine and stir well until it<br />

has been absorbed into the rice.<br />

Ladle the hot stock in one ladle<br />

at a time. Stir well between each<br />

addition so the rice sucks up the<br />

stock and becomes creamy.<br />

Continue until the rice is<br />

tender and creamy and the sauce<br />

around the rice is thick and silky.<br />

If too thick, loosen with a little<br />

more stock, or if too runny cook<br />

out for a little longer. You may or<br />

may not need all the stock.<br />

Adjust the seasoning and<br />

finish by adding half the grated<br />

parmesan and stir to combine.<br />

To make the fennel and olive<br />

dressing, chop the fennel fronds<br />

and add to the olives and zest of<br />

one lemon.<br />

Stir together, add the olive<br />

oil and enough lemon juice to<br />

balance the dressing.<br />

To serve the risotto, spoon<br />

on to your plate, sprinkle over<br />

a little more grated parmesan.<br />

Spoon over a little fennel and<br />

olive dressing.<br />

Save your ripe bananas<br />

to make this sweet after<br />

dinner treat<br />

Banana loaf<br />

Ingredients<br />

140g butter, softened, plus extra<br />

for the tin<br />

140g caster sugar<br />

2 large eggs, beaten<br />

140g self-raising flour<br />

1 tsp baking powder<br />

2 ripe bananas, mashed<br />

50g icing sugar<br />

Handful dried banana chips, for<br />

decoration<br />

Directions<br />

Heat oven to 180 deg C.<br />

Butter a 900g loaf tin and line<br />

the base and sides with baking<br />

parchment.<br />

Cream 140g softened butter<br />

and 140g caster sugar until light<br />

and fluffy, then slowly add two<br />

beaten large eggs with a little of<br />

the 140g flour.<br />

Fold in the remaining flour,<br />

one tsp baking powder and two<br />

mashed bananas.<br />

Pour into the tin and bake<br />

for about 30min until a skewer<br />

comes out clean.<br />

Cool in the tin for<br />

10min, then remove to a wire<br />

rack.<br />

Mix 50g icing sugar with twothree<br />

tsp water to make a runny<br />

icing.<br />

Drizzle the icing across the top<br />

of the cake and decorate with a<br />

handful of banana chips.<br />
