A new cookbook of recipes from women in prison has been published, inspired by research from the University of Surrey.

The book ‘Beyond Porridge’ follows a three-year study of over 80 women in four different prisons.

The research discovered that the women tend to use the kettles in their cells to supplement their meals from their prison.

Recipes in the book include Oreo cheesecake, pudding in a mug and kettle Chow Mein.
