Hedgerow Katsu Curry?!

This inspiring and fascinating episode was recorded in September 2024 when Fred took Nico to an unassuming hedgerow along a path above Hasting to look for the wild spices and seeds that he promised to turn into a Katsu Curry Sauce, which Fred planned to serve on a breaded Chicken of The Woods mushroom, flattened into a Schnitzel.

Once again Fred’s incredible knowledge about the intriguing universe of Wild ingredients and the natural world in general make for an eye-opening, educational walk for Nico (When he manages to shut up and listen).

But can FRED really deliver the taste of Katsu and not some vague approximation of curry? Nico is not so sure….

HELP US GROW THE WILD LUNCH

We are looking for partners and sponsors to help fund the production of another five fabulous (already recorded) episodes of The Wild Lunch, to complete the first series.

So far, we have produced everything ourselves because we believe this format can be very successful. We're also planning to introduce hosted walks followed by amazing wild lunch banquets for our fans and listeners to come along to!

So, if you are a brand or business associated with food or the outdoors, or you simply love the show as much as we do, please get in touch. Our big promotional push, fuelled by Fred’s 24,000+ Instagram followers, start’s here! We’re only looking for a small investment for this launch phase, but as someone much richer than us once said, every little helps.
