Here’s to a Healthy New Year

What are your New Year Resolutions?

At BoTree we think 2020 should be a year for prioritising health and quality of food. We recommend moving away from strict diet plans and unattainable weight goals and towards a good and healthy relationship with food. Not only do we encourage healthy eating, but also the importance of learning more about the quality of your food: where does it come from and how is it produced?

If you’re into cooking, you need to be into using good ingredients. We promote using organic and non-GMO products. At BoTree all our seasoning is 100% organic and ethically produced. Always check the labels, always buy ethically and always choose organic.

We have selected some of our favourite healthy winter recipes to warm you up, suiting everyone from meat-lovers, vegetarians to those struggling through veganuary.

For the Meat-lovers: Chicken, Miso and Mushroom Ramen

This recipe from Tom Kerridge has it all. Chicken and eggs for the protein kick, mushrooms and spinach for vegetable goodness and ginger and cloves to protect you against this cold winter. It is both delicious and easy-to-make.

Pair with our fleur de sel and our freshly ground Kampot white pepper and voila, perfection!

For the vegetarians: Egg and Coconut Masala

Rick Stein’s egg molee recipe is a simple vegetarian curry packed with goodness: tumeric, ginger and chillies - what more do you want to spice up your insides?

Season with our Herbs de Kampot for the perfect finishing touch.

For the vegans (and those attempting Veganuary): Slow Cook Ratatouille

This is a warming and wholesome meal filled with nutritious vegetables, including red peppers, courgettes and aubergines. Try this scrumptious health kick which counts as 4 of your 5 a day!

Pair with our Kampot red pepper for an extra dimension of flavour.
