Recipe: Getting My Goat
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…
Leftovers for dinner: Lamb with Vaguely Turkish Eggplants and Yoghurt
