Rachel Allen’s Strawberry Muesli

rachel strawberry muesli

This recipe comes from the original Swiss Bircher muesli, where porridge oats are soaked in a little water, then sweetened with delicious seasonal or dried fruit, and sometimes nuts and seeds too. Strawberries and raspberries work particularly well in this muesli recipe, as does grated apple, to which you could also add a smidgen of ground cinnamon.

The recipe was created in the early 1900s by the Swiss physician Dr Maximillian Bircher-Benner, who knew that a diet rich in nutrients was essential for the recuperation of the patients in his hospital.

Place the porridge oats in a bowl with the water. Allow the oats to sit for 10 minutes, then add in the strawberries. Mash with a fork before adding enough light agave syrup or honey, whichever you’re using, to sweeten the mixture.

Serve the muesli on its own, or with cream and brown sugar; or topped with natural yoghurt and toasted, chopped hazelnuts or almonds.

Serves 2-3.

You will need:

  • 75g (3oz) porridge oats
  • 150ml (5fl oz) water
  • 110g (4oz) strawberries
  • 2-3 teaspoons light agave syrup or honey

To serve, you will need:

  • Cream and brown sugar (optional)
  • Natural yoghurt and toasted chopped hazlenuts or almonds (optional)
  • Place the porridge oats in a bowl with the water. Allow the oats to sit for 10 minutes, then add in the strawberries. Mash with a fork before adding enough light agave syrup or honey, whichever you’re using, to sweeten the mixture.
  • Serve the muesli on its own, or with cream and brown sugar; or topped with natural yoghurt and toasted, chopped hazelnuts or almonds.

    Sausage ‘Nduja Pasta
    Serves 2-4
    Ingredients
    1 Pack Simply Better 6 Irish Pork Honey & Mustard Sausages
    1 Tbsp. Simply Better Toscano IGP Extra Virgin Olive Oil
    1 Jar Simply Better Italian Tomato & ‘Nduja Pasta Sauce
    4 Tbsp. Simply Better Creamy Italian Mascarpone
    1 Packet Simply Better Italian Fresh Strascioni Pasta
    4 Heaped Tbsp. Simply Better Parmigiano Reggiano PDO Finely Grated
    Handful Fresh Basil Leaves
    Simply Better Achill Island Sea Salt & Freshly Ground Black Pepper

    Method
    1. Heat a skillet pan over a medium to high heat. Using a small sharp knife cut down the length of the sausages to remove from the casings. Add the oil to the pan and then add the sausages and cook for 6-8 minutes, breaking them up with a cooking spoon until sizzling and golden brown.
    2. Cook the pasta in a large pan of boiling salted water for 4 minutes until ‘al dente’.
    3. Stir the tomato & ‘nduja sauce into the sausages and allow to bubble up. Add the mascarpone and season to taste. Drain the pasta, reserving a cup full of the water and fold into the sauce, adding enough of the reserved water to achieve a smooth sauce. Fold in the cooked pasta and divide among bowls, then scatter over the Parmigiano and basil leaves to serve.
