Irish Seeded Bread
This easy wheat free soda bread recipe was brought back from England recently by Helen, one of our Osteopaths, and is definitely worth sharing. It is easy to make, holds together well, and stays fresh for many days.
Ingredients:
300g oats
11/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
4 tblsp mixed seeds
500ml natural yoghurt
1 egg
1 tblsp honey
1 tblsp oil
Line a loaf tin with baking paper. Mix together the dry ingredients in a bowl, and mic together the wet ingredients in a separate bowl. Combine wet and dry ingredients and mix until completely blended.
Place in loaf tin and sprinkle some extra seeds on top.
Bake at 180C for 25 minutes then lower the temperature to 150C and cook for a further 30 mins. Remove from oven and wrap in a clean tea towel. You will know when the bread is backed when you turn it out and it has a hollow sound when you knock on the base.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
59.7% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
-
78.8% Community feedback and transparency is needed.
-
21.2% No. This would be impossible in practice.
