[title]The Asylum Seeker Resource Centre's (ASRC) Feast for Freedom is back from March 20-26 this year.
The Feast gives you the chance to cook a cuisine you mightn’t have experimented with before, and the excuse to host your loved ones for a meal all in the name of raising funds for the ASRC.
Recipes for the Feast are generously gifted by refugees and local chefs. This year's Feast will feature recipes by Benny, who will share Nigerian recipes close to his heart and Esmat, an Iranian Kurd who is a qualified chef and owns a catering business. Some of the dishes that you can look forward to cooking include chicken and fish tomato stew, semolina fufu, kashke bademjan and halva.
You can register to host a feast via the website. The ASRC will email you a personal fundraising page and send you a hosting kit that includes all of the recipes and the stories of the chefs behind them. All that's left to do is plan your dishes, invite your guests and host your Feast for Freedom.
In the past four years, more than 3,500 people across the country have hosted a Feast for Freedom raising over $1.6 million. Funds raised this year will continue to provide shelter, health services and food to those seeking asylum.
