Many of us have a little extra time to spend in the kitchen right now but fewer opportunities to go out shopping. At times like these it’s worth having recipes that use plenty of store cupboard ingredients. With that in mind Diarmuid Ó Mathúna from MO Food Blog has put together a special recipe for Gaelchultúr’s newsletter readers that is simple, cheap and healthy!
It’s essential to use a spellchecker when writing Irish, especially if you use the language regularly in your work. We in Gaelchultúr advise our learners and students to buy and download GaelSpell but there’s also an online version available for those who don’t want to pay for that spellchecker.
In this article we have lots of suggestions for those of you who want to become part of the online Irish language community and improve your language skills as well.
