Mercury-prize nominated musician Loyle Carner is turning his hand to cooking.
He’s already released a musical ode to Yotam Ottolenghi and now he’s made a pizza for Yard Sale. Christmas Con Carner topped with turkey chilli, mozzarella, and teardrop peppers on a house tomato sauce garnished with sour cream, coriander and lime. £1 from each pizza will go to the free cooking school he runs in with the social enterprise GOMA for kids with ADHD. Here’s his recipe for success.
