Zoe Power Artist of the Month Zoe Power is an illustrator; her bold mixed media illustrations depict kooky caricatures. Babes on bikes, skateboarding cats and beetroot munching men, are just some of the many characters Zoe creates. Working in mixed media collage with a vivid colour palate, Zoe’s work invokes narrative and within a single image her illustrations allow your imagination to unfold stories. cargocollective.com/by-zoe

Seasonal Recipe from the Community Kitchen Homity Pie! For the pastry: •125g plain flour, plus extra for rolling •125g wholemeal flour •150g butter •1 free-range egg, beaten
For the filling:
Preparation Method Serves 6-8 1.Put the flour and butter in a food processor and blend until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. 2.Add the egg and pulse until the mixture just comes together as a dough. Bring the dough together and flatten into a round.
•850g floury potatoes, such as Maris Piper or King Edward, peeled and cut into quarters •25g butter •1 tbsp sunflower oil •3 onions, halved and sliced •2 garlic cloves, crushed •100g baby spinach leaves •175g mature cheddar cheese, coarsely grated •2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley leaves •250ml double cream •pinch freshly grated nutmeg •flaked sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
3.Put the pastry in the centre of a cake tin and carefully ease it over the base and up the sides of the tin. 4.Cook the potatoes in boiling water for 15 minutes, or until just tender. Drain in a colander, tip back into the saucepan and cut into 3cm pieces with a round-bladed knife. 5.Melt the butter and oil in a frying pan and fry the onions gently for 15 minutes, or until soft and pale golden-brown. Add the garlic and cook for two further minutes, stirring regularly. 6.Preheat the oven to 180C. 7.Add the onions and garlic to the potatoes and sprinkle with 100g of the cheese and the parsley. Add the spinach leaves and season with nutmeg, salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mix all the ingredients together until well combined. 8.Spoon the filling mixture into the pastry case. Pour over the cream and allow it to drizzle down between the layers. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top. Place the tin on a baking tray and bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the pastry is crisp and pale golden-brown. 9.Leave the pie to cool in the tin for 10 minutes. Remove the pie from the tin and place it on a serving plate. Cut into thick wedges with a sharp knife.
