Dried wild cherries, plums and peaches in a cinnamon, wholewheat sour dough bread


The Creole Ragout with fresh basil & own grown cherry tomatoes. I will add more torn basil tomorrow before packing for delivery. It will be simmered at client's home and served with bow tie pasta

Carrot & orange soup, finished with sour cream

Lightly brown the potatoes in the oil and butter..do not add seasonings until completed.

Always use fresh garlic, use flat side of a knife and flatten the cloves this removes the skin and the germ (the tough bit on the base). Then mince finely.

Fresh own grown rosemary..just picked

Saute in olive oil and butter (butter helps to brown the potatoes), then add boiling stock and simmer tightly lidded. I also added white wine.

These 5 shots, the braised new potatoes with  "mellow" garlic and rosemary
