Homemade juices are one of the easiest ways to elevate your diet and boost your health naturally. They contain all the nutrients you need with simple, fresh ingredients without artificial sweeteners or additives.

Here are three of my favourites:

- Celery Juice: Refreshing and hydrating, perfect for a detox boost.
- Pear, Apple, Ginger, and Lemon Juice: A blend of sweetness with a zesty kick that supports immunity and digestion.
- Pineapple, Ginger, and Lemon Juice: Tropical and refreshing, with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory benefits.

Pure, minimal ingredients that nourish and energise!

Each fruit in this salad complements the others to create a synergistic effect:

- Pineapple: Rich in vitamin C and bromelain, an enzyme that supports digestion and reduces inflammation.
- Strawberries: Loaded with antioxidants, fibre, and vitamin C, strawberries help boost immunity and support heart health.
- Blueberries: Packed with powerful antioxidants like anthocyanins, blueberries protect against oxidative stress and boost brain health.
- Dates: Natural sweetness combined with fiber, potassium, and magnesium supports digestive health and balances blood sugar levels.
- Kiwi: High in vitamin C, fibre, and antioxidants, kiwi aids in digestion and boosts immune function.
- Mint: Adds a refreshing flavor while promoting digestion and soothing inflammation.
Pineapple Juice enhances the salad’s tropical flavor and adds extra vitamin C, complementing the antioxidant-rich ingredients.

Together, these fruits create a harmony of nutrients that promote immune health, support digestion, and provide an antioxidant boost. The combination of colors reflects a wide variety of vitamins and minerals, turning this fruit salad into a true “rainbow” of nutrition.

West African Fish Sauce with Mackerel

Ingredients:

- 2 red bell peppers
- 1 onion
- A handful of curry leaves
- A few sprigs of rosemary
- 2 mackerel fillets (boneless, if possible)
- 2 tablespoons organic coconut oil
- Salt, to taste
- 1-2 stock cubes (optional)
- Water, as needed

Instructions:

1. Pre-Boil the Fish: In a pot, add the mackerel fillets with a little water. Bring to a gentle boil for about 5 minutes. Remove the fish, let it cool, and carefully remove any remaining bones.

2. Blend the Sauce: In a blender, combine the red bell peppers, onion, curry leaves, and rosemary. Blend until smooth.

3. Cook the Sauce: In a separate pot, heat the organic coconut oil over medium heat. Add the blended mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and the oil begins to separate.

4. Combine: Gently fold in the pre-boiled mackerel. Add a splash of water if needed to achieve your desired consistency. Season with salt and add stock cubes for extra flavor, stirring well.

5. Serve: Allow the sauce to simmer for a few more minutes to let the flavors meld. Serve hot over rice or alongside your favorite side dishes.

Enjoy this rich and flavorful West African fish sauce that highlights the delicate taste of mackerel!
