This entry was going to be a recipe for goat and cardoon tagine. I’m still going to include the recipe at the bottom of this post, because Andrew quite liked it, but I really, really didn’t. Instead I’m going to…

Recipe: Chicken in a Pot with Artichoke and Aioli
This recipe fills me with delight. Really, the reason I bought a slow cooker was to be able to have something cooking all afternoon that would make the house smell wonderful. Well, I had to go out to the shops…
Recipe: Delicious, But Disappointingly Un-Purple, Carrot Cupcakes
Ever since the weekend, I’ve been thinking about purple carrot cake. Whether purple carrots would make purple cake. How to maximise the purpleness of the cake. Whether a vegan carrot cake (lacking alkaline egg-white) would get me a better purple…
Recipe: Provençal Vegetable Soup with Pistou

DON’T FORGET TO SOAK YOUR BEANS! (putting them in to soak before you go to work in the morning is fine) This recipe is adapted from one of the Moosewood Cookbooks – I’m afraid I can’t recall which, as I…
Leftovers for Lunch: Roasted Vegetable and Chickpea Salad
I love roast vegetables. About once a fortnight, I will do a huge roast vegetable fest – one enormous tray of potatoes, pumpkin, sweet potatoes, carrots, onions and beetroot, cut into chunks and the potato and beetroot parboiled, and then…
