Gardening in these remote islands is more then just a hobbie but an essential practice vital for survival. Walking barefoot through rough terrain to find the areas with the most suitable soil, sections of forest are burnt and cleared with basic hand tools such as machete and axe. The trees are then removed or used for stabilising the soil. This is when the women of the village come together to dig and plant the seeds of various staples. Today Poppy learns the way of planting a variety of yams that will later be remembered as 'Poppy's yams', signifying not only the day that a yachtie came to learn, but also get her hands dirty and help the local community. This act of unity is why these villagers have been able to thrive off growing their own food for so many generations.

Braised lamb in red wine 🍷 Inspired by Gordon Ramsay — and approved even by the ones who “don’t like lamb” ( they asked for seconds) Save this for your next wow-dinner moment 👇 recipe: 4 lamb shanks Olive oil, for frying 2 carrots, peeled and sliced 1 onion, peeled and thickly sliced 2 bay leaves 1 x 750ml bottle red wine 500ml chicken stock Small handful of mint leaves, to garnish FOR THE MARINADE: 1–2 green chillies, deseeded and sliced, to taste 1–2 red chillies, de из заseeded and sliced, to taste 2 tsp smoked paprika 2 tsp dried oregano 1 tsp cumin seeds 2 cinnamon sticks, snapped in half 3 garlic cloves, peeled, roughly chopped and crushed Olive oil Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper First prepare the marinade. Mix the chillies (use only one of each if you don’t like hot dishes), smoked paprika, oregano, cumin seeds, cinnamon sticks, garlic, 1 tablespoon of olive oil and seasoning together. Rub the mixture into the lamb so that it is well flavoured. You can cook the lamb straight away, but if you have time, cover and leave to marinate for at least 1 hour, or even overnight. Preheat the oven to 160°C/Gas 3. Heat a large casserole dish on the hob and add a couple of tablespoons of olive oil. Brown the lamb in it for about 6 minutes until coloured on all sides, then add the chillies and cinnamon from the marinade. Add the carrots, onion and bay leaves to the casserole and brown for a minute or two. Lift the lamb so that it is resting on top of the onions and carrots. Add the red wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up the bits from the bottom, then bring to the boil and cook for 7–8 minutes to reduce the liquid by half. Add the chicken stock, bring to the boil, then transfer, uncovered, to the preheated oven. Cook for 3 hours until the meat is really tender and the sauce reduced. (If the tops of the shanks look like they might be drying out, just baste and occasionally turn them.) Remove the cooked meat from the oven and serve garnished with torn mint leaves and the cooking juices spooned on top. #BraisedLamb #POV #CookingMagic #DinnerPartyWin
