Allergy & Free From Show, clean eating, detox, food allergies, gluten-free, London events, London Olympia, well-being, Yoga With Paul

In my last post I talked about how changing eating habits can have a big, positive impact on our well-being. This weekend is the Allergy & Free-From Show at London Olympia, which is a great opportunity to check out alternative food options and eating styles — especially if you have food allergies or intolerances.

The Allergy & Free From Show

The Allergy & Free-From Show has a huge range of products, as you can imagine, but also offers lots of practical ideas for clean eating and more.

According to its About page:

These are family-friend weekend events full of products (food, drink, skin / hair care, household items and more), cooking classes, talks, expert advice and more – all ‘free from’ and all dedicated to helping you to improve your life.

Never been to an event like this before?

Well, you are in for a treat. When you arrive at the venue, you will be directed into a huge hall where you can:

Taste incredible food and drink
Try gorgeous skin and hair care
Enjoy inspirational cooking classes
Talk to Consultant experts
Family friendly, with kids’ activities

What’s great about the show is that there are a lot of hands-on demonstrations. For example, Doves Farms is hosting demonstrations on gluten free cooking, including how to make pasta, pizza, chocolate cake and other favourites.

 

There is also a bunch of free educational seminars on topics like coeliac disease, eczema, travelling with allergies, managing IBS and more.

The show is a great chance to explore what’s out there, whether you have a specific allergy, or are looking to reduce common aggravations like gluten or conventional cleaning products.

It starts today and runs through the weekend — 6-8 July — from 10AM to 5PM at
London Olympia. You can book tickets here.

It is definitely getting to be comfort food time of year and food doesn’t get much more comforting than this aubergine curry with a coconut milk base. It is it mellow and delicious, packed with good-for-you-ingredients like fresh ginger and tomatoes, and the perfect way to enjoy seasonal aubergine at its best.

aubergine 1

This recipe is from Delicious Magazine, it has whole aubergine section for inspiration!

If you want to make this vegan, just substitute firm tofu or tempeh for the paneer cheese.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp sunflower oil
  • 226g pack of paneer (see Know-how)
  • 1 large aubergine
  • 4 baby aubergines (see tips)
  • 170g vine-ripened cherry tomatoes or baby plum tomatoes
  • 5cm piece fresh ginger
  • 1 tsp mild curry powder
  • 180ml half-fat coconut milk
  • Good pinch garam masala
  • Fresh coriander leaves to garnish
  • Basmati rice to serve

Preparation

  1. Heat the sunflower oil in a wok until shimmering hot. Cut the paneer into cubes, season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and add to the pan. Fry for 5 minutes, turning, or until golden. Put on kitchen paper to drain off the excess oil.
  2. Dice the large aubergine and halve the baby aubergines lengthways, then fry in the residual oil in the pan, turning now and then, until golden. Halve the cherry or baby plum tomatoes, squeeze out and discard the seeds, then add the tomato halves to the pan. Peel and grate the fresh ginger and add to the pan with the curry powder, half-fat coconut milk and a splash of water.
  3. Simmer gently for 15 minutes, then add the cubed paneer and garam masala. Sprinkle with fresh coriander leaves and serve with basmati rice.
