Flour & water

Waste not, want not has rarely been more pertinent than in today’s world. Jane Lyons shows us how to make the most of what we have.

Why not celebrate the arrival of the new season with a spring clean of arguably the most important space in the house? Fridge clean-outs can be devilish things – mountains of produce catapulted into the bin, dirty jars swiftly dumped into the recycling and containers of leftovers hurtled out of sight. I urge you to take a fresh approach to your fridge – make Sunday a regular “fridge pie/pizza/soup” day to use up leftovers and make an effort to freeze odds and ends of items like yoghurt and milk in ice trays to throw into smoothies in the morning.
