Olga from Albany

For example, buckwheat pancakes ☺️
Ingredients (for 8 pancakes):

🍴1 bag of buckwheat "Uvelka"
🍴1 Courgette (medium)
🍴2 Eggs
🍴3-4 tablespoons flour
🍴1 teaspoon paprika
🍴0,25 teaspoon black pepper
🍴¼ teaspoon salt 🍴Vegetable oil (for frying)
🍴Sausage or ham- 150-200 g (you can use any other filling)

Instruction:
🥣 Cook the porridge from 1 bag of «Uvelka” following the instraktion on the pack
🥣 Grate the zucchini, chop the buckwheat porridge in a blender, then mix.
🥣 Add raw eggs, salt, spices and flour.
🥣 Knead dough from all ingredients using a spoon. The dough should be smooth like for pancakes.
🥣Cut the sausage or ham.
🥣 In a frying pan, heat the oil and put a tablespoon of the dough. In the middle of each pancake put some sausage (or other stuffing).
🥣 Cover the sausage with another spoon of dough and fry on both sides.

Buckwheat groats “Uvelka”, boil-in-bag, you can buy in Gastronomy Marusya.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
