Cook up a Witches Brew Stew just in time for Halloween
24 October 2024
Strabane Health Improvement Project (SHIP) in the Ballycolman Estate is cooking up a Halloween experience that is sure to tantalise your tastebuds.
Running on Tuesday, 29th October from 10am-12pm SHIP is hosting the Witches Stew Brew, this is an afternoon cookery session which aims to show locals how to make a tasty meal using vegetables which can be grown locally.
Jarlath McNulty, SHIP project manager explained: “We were approached by Acorn Farm and Council to look at delivering a project based around cooking from local produce. When we had a think about it, we thought the Witches Brew Stew would be a great way to do it in the run up to Halloween.
“The event is due to run for about two hours and is all about encouraging people to think about eating healthier and using items they could ultimately grow themselves. Harvest is the perfect time of year to hold an event like this and we are really looking forward to it.”
Encouraging people to take part in the Witches Brew Stew, the Mayor of Derry City and Strabane District Council said: “The event hosted by Strabane Health Improvement Project is the perfect opportunity to learn how to introduce more vegetables into your diet in a fun and practical way. If you’re able to attend please do so, I’m sure you will pick up lots of useful cookery tips and of course come away with the recipe for a perfect Witches Brew Stew.”
Anyone interested should turn up at 10am on Tuesday, 29 October at Strabane Health Improvement Project in the Ballycolman Estate. Contact: 02871 383557 if you need further information.
