Khurdi or white soup is made with rich mutton stock and then flavored with whole spices. Milk is added to the soup to give it some body and creaminess. Milk also gives it the characteristically white color, which isn't really all that white. The deep and intense flavors are rounded off with lots of fresh mint to add freshness.

Blog Post & Recipe: A Vietnamese-style Fish Soup


It's simple, the flavours are clear and it's done cooking in minutes. The broth is excellent on its own but drop some crusty bread into it, let the bread suck up the broth and then bite into the bread


Blog Post & Recipe: Mackerel with Harissa, Orange & Fennel


I used the harissa with some really fresh mackerel fillets, orange and fennel so that I could finally finish off that bloody cous cous that's been lingering in my cupboard for months. A splash of rose water brought it all to life; though quite a summery dish, the fiery spice made it nice and warming.

Chicken & Egg on Rice / Braised Rabbit with Prunes / Baccalà Mantecato



Blog Post & Recipe: the chicken and egg situation


Its sinister translation literally means ’mother and child’ although we would prefer to describe it as simply chicken and egg on rice. There are many variations of this dish, this is an adaptation on the one we serve at Bincho


Blog Post & Recipe: Braised Rabbit with Prunes

Blog Post & Recipe: Baccalà Mantecato


Upon further query it turned out to be salt cod, whipped up into a spread and gobsmackingly good. So smooth and creamy it was that I could have sworn it had some potato in, but part-owner Russell Norman told us no, it just requires emulsifying the cod with oil to make a smooth paste; labour-intensive but ultimately worth it..

[Barley] is a staple, of course, in old favourites such as Scotch broth and Irish stew, but it can also take a starring, beguiling role in more outré broths and soups, in nutty, flavoursome salads, or as an alternative to arborio rice in creamy, risotto-style concoctions.
