The Inspire Sustainability team recently worked again with a team from the\u00a0Asian Energy Studies Centre<\/a>\u00a0at Hong Kong Baptist University to put together a low-carbon cooking workshop for local families in Barton Hill. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of a study project on household energy usage, the workshop provided the families with tips and tricks for lowering their bills whilst still cooking nutritious and budget-friendly meals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Around 25 people including many young children gathered in Cafe Conscious in Barton Hill to experience the workshop, to learn and to eat together. The evening was a great success with a great community spirit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

UWE’s Inspire Sustainability team member and home cook Josh Warren showed the group a delicious and nutritious hearty veggie curry recipe, and local cook Joyce Fong made a flavourful and quick tossed potato salad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both dishes went down really well and demonstrated lots of tips for energy-saving, such as batch-cooking, using the microwave, and buying locally and seasonally. Most of the ingredients were even bought from the neighbouring shops and convenience stores in Barton Hill. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project hopes to continue to bring energy-saving advice and workshops to local communities in Bristol and support families to reduce their bills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
