But I have no intention of eating anything that walked, swam or flew (or gambolled - saw some cute lambs the other day).

Merely corroborative detail, intended to give artistic verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and unconvincing narrative.

Another veggie here (although I cook meat for my cats and dog), but before anyone expects tips from me on Indian cooking, let me make it clear that I'm a self-taught beginning cook, and intend to lift ideas from the excellent recipes on this thread!

"What's that burning?" is getting far too meaty for me at the moment so I'm retreating to here.
Nice bulgar wheat salad for tea for the 2nd time this week, The BW is mixed into a dressing of extra virgin/balsamic/soy with a smattering of chilli - then add lots of chopped toms/peppers/cucumber/carrots.

Tonight I am cooking one of Nigel Slater's recipes from Sunday's Observer. Penne with artichoke hearts, parsley and parmesan.
I would have done one of Waitrose's May recipes (asparagus & lemon spaghetti with rocket and pine nuts) but the only asparagus available was Thai which is somewhat woody.
It sounds rather lovely. Cook spaghetti, steam asparagus (cut into 2.5cm lengths). Put creme fraiche in pan and add crushed garlic and zest of a lemon, simmer gently 2 mins, then season (if required). Drain pasta, return to pan, stir in asparagus, creme fraiche mixture and toasted pine nuts. Add rocket, a little bit of the cooking water and stir until leaves are wilted. Serve and enjoy! NOM NOM

ahh, The Nigel Slater I had tonight, penne and artichokes, although I would never presume to improve on a receipt of ower Nige's - I added some lemon zest to it which really worked well. |

I hate to demonstrate my ignorance but I've never heard of Nigel Slater, other than when Mort, Anty and martle have rabbited, sorry, sprouted on about him.
When I googled him I got "Nigel Slater is a cook who writes. Author of sven cookery books" (sic)

Call me a fuel then, but I'll stick to good old Mrs Beeton, at least she knew that only women are supposed to cook.
