Sunshine Nasi Goreng

You have to try our fresh take on this Indonesian classic. It’s tasty, nutritious and quick and easy to make. It’s a great recipe for winter, as it’s comforting, warming and has lots of ingredients that support immunity.

Eggs are a nutritional powerhouse. A lot of people get excited about the whites because they are such a great protein source, but it’s the yolks that really give eggs their superfood status. They contain healthy fats and fat-soluble vitamins, including vitamin D (so it’s like eating sunshine - perfect for when you aren’t getting enough actual sunshine). Speaking of vitamin D, we have used our Chicken Bone Broth Hearty Mushroom in this recipe which is another source of our sunshine vitamin, as well as B vitamins and Zinc!

The garlic, ginger and chillies will warm you up from the inside, and you really can’t go past rice as great comfort food. Brown basmati rice still contains the outer bran layer of the rice, making it more nutritionally dense and higher in fibre than the white variety.
