Vegan Chilli By Barney Desmazery at BBC Good Food Ingredients

• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into medium chunks
• 2 tsp smoked paprika
• 2 tsp ground cumin
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 carrots, chopped
• 2 celery sticks, chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• 1-2 tsp chilli powder (depending on how hot you like it)
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 1 tbsp tomato purée
• 1 red pepper, cut into chunks
• 2 x 400g cans chopped tomatoes
• 400g can black beans, drained
• 400g can kidney beans, drained
• lime wedges, guacamole, rice and coriander to serve

Method

• STEP 1Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the sweet potato in a roasting tin and drizzle over 1½ tbsp oil, 1 tsp smoked paprika and 1 tsp ground cumin. Give everything a good mix so that all the chunks are coated in spices, season with salt and pepper, then roast for 25 mins until cooked.
• STEP 2Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Add the onion, carrot and celery. Cook for 8-10 mins, stirring occasionally until soft, then crush in the garlic and cook for 1 min more. Add the remaining dried spices and tomato purée. Give everything a good mix and cook for 1 min more.
• STEP 3Add the red pepper, chopped tomatoes and 200ml water. Bring the chilli to a boil, then simmer for 20 mins. Tip in the beans and cook for another 10 mins before adding the sweet potato. Season to taste then serve with lime wedges, guacamole, rice and coriander. Will keep, in an airtight container in the freezer, for up to three months.

Vegan Sausage Rolls By Esther Clark on BBC Good Food Ingredients

• 250g chestnut mushrooms
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 2 leeks, finely chopped
• 2 large garlic cloves, crushed
• 1 tbsp finely chopped sage leaves
• 1 tbsp brown rice miso
• 2 tsp Dijon mustard
• 30g chestnuts, very finely chopped
• 70g fresh white breadcrumbs
• 1 x 320g sheet ready-rolled puff pastry (not the all-butter version)
• plain flour for dusting
• dairy-free milk (like soya milk), to glaze

Method

• STEP 1Tip the mushrooms into a food processor and pulse until they are very finely chopped. Put half the olive oil in a large frying pan, add the leeks along with a pinch of salt and fry gently for 15 mins or until softened and golden brown. Scrape the leeks out of the pan, into a bowl and set aside to cool a little.
• STEP 2Heat the remaining oil in the pan and fry the mushrooms for 10 mins over a medium heat. Add the garlic, sage, miso and mustard, and fry for a further minute. Leave to cool slightly.
• STEP 3Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip the mushroom mixture into the bowl with the leeks, then add the chestnuts and breadcrumbs. Season, then mix everything together until you have a slightly stiff mixture.
• STEP 4Unravel the pastry on a floured surface, then roll the pastry out so that one side measures 43 cm. Mould the mushroom and leek mixture into a sausage shape down the centre of the pastry, then bring the pastry up around the filling and seal along the seam with a fork. Cut into ten pieces. Lay on a parchment-lined baking sheet and brush each piece with milk. Bake for 25 mins or until deep, golden brown. Leave to cool a little and sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving.

White Ribbon Day

25th November

On 6th December 1989, a man named Marc Lepine went into a mechanical engineering class in a college in Montreal. He ordered the men and women to stand on different sides of the class. Next, he told the men to leave and proceeded to shoot all nine women in the room; six of them died. Apparently, this was an anti-feminist act.

As a reaction against this tragic incident, people began to talk in great detail about violence against women. In 1991, the White Ribbon Movement was started by a group of men and boys speaking out about this important issue. It has since become a global movement.

'Men taking action

against violence towards women'

Eggshells is a short film about domestic abuse.

For signs of domestic abuse, click here.

For further support and information, please visit these websites.

Recognising the signs of domestic abuseDoes your partner…

• Embarrass or make fun of you in front of your friends or family?
• Put down your accomplishments?
• Make you feel like you are unable to make decisions?
• Use intimidation or threats to gain compliance?
• Tell you that you are nothing without them?
• Treat you roughly—grab, push, pinch, shove or hit you?
• Call you several times a night or show up to make sure you are where you said you would be?
• Use drugs or alcohol as an excuse for saying hurtful things or abusing you?
• Blame you for how they feel or act?
• Pressure you sexually for things you aren’t ready for?
• Make you feel like there is “no way out” of the relationship?
• Prevent you from doing things you want – like spending time with friends or family?
• Try to keep you from leaving after a fight or leave you somewhere after a fight to “teach you a lesson”?

Do you...

• Sometimes feel scared of how your partner may behave?
• Constantly make excuses to other people for your partner’s behaviour?
• Believe that you can help your partner change if only you changed something about yourself?
• Try not to do anything that would cause conflict or make your partner angry?
• Always do what your partner wants you to do instead of what you want?
• Stay with your partner because you are afraid of what your partner would do if you broke up?

If any of these things are happening in your relationship, talk to someone. Without help, the abuse will continue. Making that first call to seek help is a courageous step. Always remember...

• NO ONE deserves to be abused. The abuse is not your fault. You are not alone.
• DON’T worry about threats to your visa. We have information about visa options for your situation.
• DON’T worry if you do not speak the local language. We can get you help in many Languages.

Diwrnod Rhuban Gwyn

25ain o Dachwedd

Ar y 6ed o Dachwedd 1989 gwnaeth dyn o'r enw Marc Lepine fynd i mewn i ddosbarth peirianneg fecanyddol mewn coleg ym Montreal. Fe orchmynodd y dynion a'r menywod i symud i naill ochr y dosbarth a'r llall . Yna fe ddywedodd wrth y dynion i adael ac aeth ymlaen i saethu'r 9 menyw a bu farw chwech ohonynt. Mae'n debyg ei fod yn weithred gwrth-ffeministaidd

Mewn ymateb i'r digwyddiad trasig yma dechreuodd bobl siarad yn ddifrifol am drais yn erbyn menywod. Ym 1991 dechreuodd y mudiad Rhuban Gwyn gan grŵp o ddynion a bechgyn oedd am godi llais am y mater holl-bwysig hwn. Mae bellach wedi dod yn fudiad byd-eang

Remembrance Sunday and Armistace Day

10th November

Take a look at these videos giving a short history of the poppy.

For more information, visit this website.

If you like poetry, here's the famous Flanders Field poem by John McCrae.

This article is an interesting read on how the Welsh language was impacted by the wars.

There are different coloured poppies that we can wear as remembrance. Click here to see what each colour symbolises.

The Royal British Legion has some excellent teaching resources available on their website.

Between the warsThe destruction of the World War One accelerated the decline of Welsh. It has been estimated some 20,000 Welsh speakers died in the conflict. The poet Hedd Wyn (Ellis Humphrey Evans) from Trawsfynydd is a particularly poignant symbol of a lost generation, killed on the fields of France shortly before his poem won the chair at the Birkenhead Eisteddfod in 1917. The 1921 census shows that during this traumatic decade the number of Welsh speakers fell from 43.5% of the population to 37.1%. The economic turmoil of the 1920s and 30s added further pressure. The rural areas of West Wales, where Welsh speakers were still in the majority, saw severe hardship among farming communities. Many of the younger people left the land seeking better opportunities elsewhere and left behind an ageing population. In the counties of Cardigan, Meirionnydd, Caernarfon and Anglesey, the death rate frequently outstripped the birth rate. After the 1926 general strike, the industrial heartlands of Wales plunged into depression. In the face of rapid economic downturn, migration into the coalfield didn't just halt: working people began to move out. Many were from the more Anglicised eastern coalfield, yet that offered scant consolation - the knock-on effects were dire for the whole Welsh economy. Between 1925 and 1939, 390,000 people left Wales in search of work. It wasn't until World War Two that the Welsh economy began to get back on its feet. During this time the English language became more a part of day-to-day life in Wales. Daily newspapers increased in popularity, particularly during the War when people wanted the latest information. Radio started broadcasting, and cinemas began to show talkies. The language used was English. Transport played its part as an extensive network of railways and roads opened up access across Wales. As Janet Davies writes in her book The Welsh Language, remote villages, where no language but Welsh had been heard for 15 centuries, now resounded in summer with English voices. There was nowhere for the language to hide.

In Flanders FieldsBY JOHN MCCRAEIn Flanders fields the poppies blowBetween the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, flyScarce heard amid the guns below.We are the Dead. Short days agoWe lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie, In Flanders fields.Take up our quarrel with the foe:To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who dieWe shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields.

Red Poppy This poppy is the most common you'll see during November. It is the poppy that is connected to the Royal British Legion and remembers all of those who sacrificed their lives during World War One and in all wars after. Black Poppy This poppy is worn to commemorate all black, African and Caribbean people who have fought and died in all wars and the contribution they played in rebuilding Britain after wartime. An interesting book on this subject is Windrush: the irresistible rise of multi-racial Britain by Mike Phillips and Trevor Phillips. Purple Poppy During all wars, animals play a huge part. This poppy is worn to remember all those, both big and small, who died and were involved in the rescue and return of soldiers. White Poppy White is the symbol of peace and so we wear this poppy to promote peace and to get us thinking about war in a different way. It is also the symbol of the Peace Pledge Union. Rainbow Poppy Many people have given their lives during wars. We wear the rainbow poppy to remember members of the LGBTQ+ communities.

This poppy is worn to remember all those, both big and small, who died and were involved in the rescue and return of soldiers. White Poppy White is the symbol of peace and so we wear this poppy to promote peace and to get us thinking about war in a different way. It is also the symbol of the Peace Pledge Union. Rainbow Poppy Many people have given their lives during wars. We wear the rainbow poppy to remember members of the LGBTQ+ communities.
