Abdul's Bolanis

May is here and in the RCK Calendar that means Abdul's Bolani Recipe (not to mention our Orthodox Easter Doro Wat recipe which you'll find in there too!). Abdul gave a mini Bolani masterclass in our Calais kitchen recently to show us how to perfect the Afghani stuffed flatbreads.

Refugee Community Kitchen Calendar 2019!

EXCITING NEWS: You can now order Refugee Community Kitchen's 2019 recipe calendar!

Our hard working crew of volunteer chefs, including the fantastic Andi Oliver, Ben Cottam and Bean Russell have scaled down the nourishing recipes that are cooked in our kitchens for thousands of people, so that you can make them at home.

Not only will these make for the perfect gift but each calendar will provide 18 hot, nutritious meals for displaced people this coming winter.

PS. Can you help us get these out there? Please share this post and email us if you are able to stock the calendars at your local market, yoga studio, Christmas market, festival, church, school, event, etc.
