We are so pleased to welcome back our chef in the west, four-year-old Nora Ralph! She delighted us all with her buttermilk fried chicken and we are similarly enchanted with this recipe - gorseflower cheesecake.
Nora forages for gorse flowers with her dad Barry, who is a chef and owns the House of Plates restaurant in Castlebar. You can follow her food journey on Instagram - @nora_on_food.
Her last post received lots of media attention stretching as far as the United States and has nearly 300,000 views. Way to go, Nora!
If you have a budding chef like Nora in your house and you would like to share what they're cooking while they're home, we'd love to hear about it. Send your videos to ICL@farmersjournal.ie or Whatsapp to 089-249 9922.
