Sisters deliver recipe for success<br />
By DAVID HILL<br />
The ‘‘Two Raw Sisters’’ are looking<br />
forward to returning to the Amuri A&P<br />
Show on Saturday, March 6.<br />
Like so many Cantabrians,<br />
Christchurch siblings Rosa and Margo<br />
Flanagan had their plans thrown into<br />
turmoil by Covid19 after performing<br />
their cooking demonstration at last<br />
year’s Amuri A&P Show.<br />
The pair were due to fly out to<br />
Melbourne and to the United States in<br />
March last year, but instead retreated to<br />
their parents’ kitchen to produce online<br />
workshops.<br />
Over the next two months, the sisters<br />
have afull schedule of A&P shows to<br />
visit, should New Zealand remain at<br />
alert level 1.<br />
‘‘It was great. We love doing these sort<br />
of shows,’’ says Margo, recalling last<br />
year’s visit to the Rotherham<br />
Showgrounds.<br />
‘‘It was quite funny returning to mum<br />
and dad’s last year, because it was<br />
where we started.<br />
‘‘We kept ourselves busy testing out<br />
recipes and everyone was really good<br />
and really responsive to the online stuff.<br />
‘‘We enjoyed the online workshops,<br />
but we are looking forward to seeing<br />
people rather than looking at the screen,<br />
which is abit boring sometimes.’’<br />
Since performing at last year’s Amuri<br />
A&P Show, the sisters have published<br />
their second book, All Eaters Welcome,<br />
and they are already working on their<br />
third book.<br />
‘‘The plantbased movement is<br />
definitely becoming more of athing, but<br />
we want to reach out to all eaters,’’<br />
Margo says.<br />
‘‘It’s about starting your meals with<br />
vegetables and then you can add meat if<br />
you want.<br />
All eaters welcome ... The<br />

and Margo Flanagan, will be<br />

‘‘Our recipes explore fun and exiting<br />
ways to use those pantry staples and to<br />
show people how delicious plants can<br />
be.’’<br />
The sisters will be giving a<br />
demonstration at 2pm at the show with<br />
two recipes: Apear, ginger and peanut<br />
butter bircher and abroccoli,<br />
buckwheat and sesame salad.<br />
‘‘They are perfect for taking to work or<br />
for when you are entertaining,’’ Margo<br />
says.<br />
‘‘And we will be looking at substituting<br />
ingredients. People often come to a<br />
recipe and get stressed out about it<br />
because they can’t find all the<br />
ingredients, so it’s about being flexible<br />
—one recipe can become 20 recipes.’’<br />
