Allergens

  • Gluten
  • Milk
  • Tree nuts
  • Oats count as a gluten cereal under UK labelling and ordinary oats are milled alongside wheat. Certified gluten-free oats are a separate ingredient here.
  • Most whey powders contain soya lecithin, which counts as soya. Check the tub.

Flags follow UK labelling rules and come from the ingredients as listed, not from any particular brand. Check the packet before cooking for somebody with an allergy.

Add it to your shopping list and keep looking. The list adds the quantities up across everything you pick.

Method

  1. Toast the cashews in a dry pan for two minutes until they colour, then tip them out.

  2. In the same pan simmer the oats in the coconut drink with the turmeric, ginger and salt for five minutes, stirring.

  3. Off the heat, stir in the whey with a splash of water until smooth.

  4. Top with the mango and the cashews.

Worth knowing

  • Check the carton says drink. Coconut milk drink is 33 kcal per 100 ml; the tinned kind is 170 and would make this a very different number.
  • Turmeric stains wooden spoons and worktops, so wipe as you go.
