ℹ️ Recipe Page

This page shows a full recipe with ingredients, step-by-step method, a nutritional fingerprint and a complete breakdown — all calculated live from the Nutriofia food database.

Ingredients

All quantities are shown per serving. Click any ingredient name to go to its full food profile, including its complete nutrient breakdown.

Nutrient Fingerprint

The radar chart below the tags shows this recipe's nutritional fingerprint — how much of your daily reference intake one serving covers across eight key nutrients: Protein, Fibre, Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Vitamin C, Folate and Omega-3. The bars alongside show the same information at a glance. Green = 30% or more of your daily target. Amber = 10–29%. Grey = under 10%.

Cook Once, Eat Twice

If this recipe shares key ingredients with others in the library, a 🔄 Cook Once, Eat Twice panel appears below the method. These are recipes you can batch-cook alongside — prep the shared base ingredient once and you're halfway to a second or third meal. The shared ingredients are listed on each card in green.

Nutrition breakdown

The full nutrition panel below the log section shows macros and micronutrients per serving. Click any nutrient name to see its complete profile including food sources, body functions and daily targets.

Glycemic Index & Load

Where enough ingredient data exists, a Glycemic Index & Load card appears below the log section. GI is a weighted average across all carb-contributing ingredients — it shows how fast this recipe raises blood glucose. GL per serving is the more practical number: GL = GI × carbs per serving ÷ 100. A low-GI recipe can still carry a high GL if it is large and carb-dense. Click the ? on that card for a full explanation, or read the full article.

Nutrition score

The score out of 100 in the image header reflects micronutrient breadth, fibre, protein and polyphenol content — with penalties for high saturated fat, sodium or added sugar. It's a measure of overall nutritional quality, not just calories. Scores of 90+ are exceptional.

💡 Values are estimates based on raw ingredient weights. Cooking methods and exact portions will affect actual nutrient intake.

Warm Strawberry & Raspberry Compote
7 Nutrition score
Dessert 🥄 2 min prep 🔥 5 min cook 👤 2 servings

Strawberries and raspberries barely cooked in their own juice with a squeeze of lemon — a five-minute dessert that improves almost anything it is spooned over, and is perfectly good on its own. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Ingredients (per serving)
Method
  1. 1 Hull the strawberries and halve or quarter them depending on size. Place in a saucepan with the raspberries and lemon juice. Cook over a medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for 4–5 minutes. The berries will release their juice and the mixture will thicken slightly. Do not let it boil hard — a gentle simmer is enough.
  2. 2 Taste and add a little more lemon juice if you want more sharpness. The compote should be sauce-like but still have pieces of fruit.
  3. 3 Serve warm, spooned into bowls on its own, or over a scoop of banana nice cream (recipe 197 or 206). Keeps refrigerated for 3 days and reheats well. Also excellent cold, stirred through coconut chia pudding.

How to read GI & GL

GI (Glycemic Index) rates how fast the carbohydrates in a food raise blood glucose compared to pure glucose (= 100). Low GI ≤ 55 means a slow, steady rise. But GI says nothing about how much carbohydrate you're actually eating.

GL (Glycemic Load) fixes that. It multiplies GI by the actual grams of carbohydrate per serving: GL = GI × carbs per serving ÷ 100. This makes it the more useful number for real-world blood sugar management.

Why they can disagree — a food with low GI can still carry a high GL if the serving is large and carb-dense. Red lentil dal with brown rice is a good example: lentils and brown rice both have low-to-medium GI (slow-burning), but a full serving delivers a lot of total carbohydrate, so the GL is high — meaning a sustained, steady glucose rise rather than a spike.

Low GL ≤ 10 Modest total glucose impact per serving.
Medium GL 11–19 Moderate impact — manageable for most people.
High GL ≥ 20 Significant carb load per serving. Consider a smaller portion or adding more non-starchy veg.

This recipe has a low glycemic impact — blood glucose rises slowly and steadily after eating, helping maintain energy and reduce insulin spikes.
