Glad to hear it.

Are you refering obliquely to the circularity of my serving dish? I may have square (ish) plates but my bowls (breakfast, pudding and shallow) are round.

I'm not a depraved monster.

obliquely

Oof this place. On holloway rd. wow cheaps.
I got 50 vine toms and big bag of cherry for £5.50
Sauce making time!

Will have to go on their happy hour on Sat to see what things are juicer worthy or sauce making.

I'm not used to places which sell in bulk really, it's exciting!

you want to get down nine elms market of a sunday morning and pay a visit to the lads that run the fruit and veg pitch just outside the covered area. best veg deals in london, and none of that ropey half-rotten guff you get in brixton and surrounds. you can feed yourself for a week for under 8 quid. so long as you like vegetables.

Tomatillos. Un-fucking-findable in London, so got my mum on the case! I predict a glut of Salsa in about 6 weeks...

I can help you with a glut.. Swap for my chilli jam?

They have them at the greengrocer on Parkway.

More in keeping with the OP on this thread:

Steamed curly kale, stir fried in pokey chilli oil, with grated cheddar on it's head.

Get in.

Sure, I'll shoutz when there's fruit.

@Bad_Science Really? I've been on the hunt for yonks, I'll do a roll down Parkway.

Back in my comfort zone:

• Dinner: ricotta and parsley pancakes with baked cherry tomatoes and asparagus, caramelized shallots and almond flakes on top

• Lunch (tomorrow): asparagus and feta quiche

Square plates and baking pans for your enjoyment

Asparagus well out of season. Tut tut.

But pls send me half for lunch :-)

i struggle to see what the almond flakes are adding - texture / flavour / visual appetiser..?

I got a Kelly's veg box. They gave me vine tomatoes. Ugh.

fucking vine tomatoes. aka tomatoes with a bit of twig still on it. #GITFS

But they're VINE RIPENED... All other toms are ripened by machines, erry fule no dat...

i don't like my tomatoes handled by human hands tho..

I'd say visual but I also like the little crunchiness they give, tastewise they are pretty dull, especially if not toasted. I use them often in salads.

Asparagus are out of season, that's why I was craving them.

Sorry @Olly398 that has to do lunch for today and tomorrow, will make more next time ;)

raie au beurre noir tonight

Even the MJ CTM doesn't look right. Yes they precooked the chicken so technically a tikka but the masala still looks too wet... grease needs to separate, the whole second fry thing, its very important

forum CTM challenge?!??!

I'll sit in an corner taking notes

Just as a side note, I did a CTM for my old work's "International Day". The twist was that it was actually England day so we were supposed to be doing terribly English meals. I used the JO recipe for cooking a CTM on the basis it would be the most "English" version. So many people came up to me and said it was the best CTM they'd ever had. So basically JO does a CTM for English people, English people love it.
