fuls arugula
2 tablespoons tahini, or another nut or seed butter (optional)
2 cups cooked mung beans
3-4 cups water or stock
2 teaspoons cumin
1/2 teaspoon cardamom
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1-2 teaspoons chili powder and/or cayenne
Salt and pepper, to taste
Juice from half a lemon or lime (optional)
A few tablespoons fresh parsley or cilantro (optional)
Saute onion or leeks and celery in oil for a few minutes until soft, then add garlic and ginger and cook another minute or two, until soft and fragrant. Stir in arugula and let wilt. Add the beans, spices, tahini, and liquid, and let simmer at least 10 minutes — longer is be better to help meld the flavor, especially if not using stock. If desired, blend to form a creamy soup, add more liquid if necessary to achieve the desired texture, then stir in lemon or lime juice, adjust seasoning to taste, and garnish with chopped parsley or cilantro.Chemist2U was created with the primary aim of helping Australians access their medicine quicker and easier than ever.

Where did the Chemist2U concept come from?
The idea to form Chemist2U first emerged when our founder Dr Matthew Cullen worked as a delivery driver for a local pharmacy during medical school. After the emergence of food delivery services such as Deliveroo and Uber Eats, he recognised an opportunity to work with pharmacies through a similar platform, allowing Australians to receive same-day delivery of medicine to their homes.
Where did you see the need for a service like Chemist2U?
At Chemist2U, our goal is to allow Australians to access the medicine they need without the hassle of waiting in queues at the pharmacy. Since COVID-19, this need has accelerated to reduce the risk of infection. Chemist2U provides a simple platform for users to order the pharmaceuticals they need from their device, receiving them the same day without the need to leave home. Additionally, users can store a medical profile and use our reminder system to easily re-order as needed.
Has Covid-19 accelerated the launch of Chemist2U?
At the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, we recognised a need for Australians to access the medicines they need from the safety of home. As a result, our launch was accelerated and Chemist2U quickly became a popular solution for accessing instant healthcare.“Introducing Patricia, my sister, the real Wonder Woman
