A golden, citrussy, woody but smooth wine with good body. About 13.5% strength. Sometimes known as 'April champagne'

A peasant dish from the Punjab using whatever greens are available. Mustard leaves, turnip & radish tops all add a peppery slightly bitter flavour, any cabbagey leaf will give a slightly sweeter flavour, the one component that\'s always there is the spinach and chillies, the ingredients list is stuff that can be used

Excellent bean dish with no need for pre-soaking

Smarter than your average dhal BooBoo

A cheap and hearty curry

Good with roast lamb or barbied stuff.

Mixed summer veg stew

It's a sauce, made from cranberries.

Easier than you might think.

Merguez are originally North African, but very popular in France. They need fierce grilling - ideally over charcoal. Spicy and moreish as well as being Moorish! Absolutely ideal for the barbecue. And you could easily make feisty mini burgers from this mix if you don't want to stuff sausages.

The recipe has its origins in one printed in "Casa Moro", Sam & Sam Clark's 'home cooking' book - but I have considerably adjusted the balance of the spicing (and deliberately left out the dried Rose petals!).

Spanish sausage for eating raw or adding to paella, beans, eggs, allsorts! It's spicy!

Unbelievably tasty dish using only bananas. Hence the name - Just Bananas! Requires a food processor Or masticating Juicer, like a Champion/GreenStar.

This is a quick and easy dipping sauce based on store cupboard ingredients, it's (very loosely) based on something my mum used to make so I suppose it's Indianish.
