Another lovely weekend at HD's - it even didn't rain the whole weekend, so we got out and about a bit, visiting Hay-on-Wye (town of books) on Saturday, and Fourteen Locks on Sunday. Though the best thing was seeing him of course :) (yes, I'll pass the bucket, form an orderly queue).
Anyway, here's yet another reason why this relationship is so great:
half a butternut squash
sweet potato
couple of carrots
leek
chillies (finely chopped)
tin of kidney beans
coriander (finely chopped)
bit of oil
1 lime
Boil the squash, sweet potato and carrots till soft, then mash them and mix with coriander. In the meantime shallow fry the leek, kidney beans and chillies, add the mash and mix around, then squeeze the juice and pulp of the lime into the mix. Serve with warm pitta bread.
See, that's the kind of thing that would never occur to me to cook. I don't think I've ever bought a lime in my life (cocktails don't count!) let alone cooked a grown-up meal with one. But it was delicious, and *so* simple. I think I may have to resort to liposuction before very long.
In other totally unrelated news, here's a picture I took up in town last week which I think is rather cool:
