1tsp. black sesame seeds
1tsp. white sesame seeds
2tsp. coconut oil
1tsp. dried turmeric
½cupIrish Steel Cut Oats
3 ¾cupsvegetable stock
Salt and black pepper
2free range eggs
3.5oz. kimchi

Instructions
Finely chop the shallot, then peel and grate the ginger.
Toast the sesame seeds in a dry frying pan for 2 minutes until fragrant, and put to one side for later.
Add 1 tsp. of coconut oil to a medium sized saucepan over a medium heat and sauté the shallot and ginger until soft.
Add the turmeric and sauté for a further 1 minute, before adding in the Irish oatmeal and hot vegetable stock.
Continue cooking the oats for 30-40 minutes, stirring from time to time to prevent them from sticking. Season with salt and plenty of freshly-milled black pepper.
In the meantime, add 1 tsp. of coconut oil to a small frying pan over a medium heat and fry the eggs to your liking.
Spoon the turmeric porridge into two shallow bowls. Top each bowl with some of the kimchi and a fried egg. Sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds and fresh coriander leaves to serve.
