That sounds even better value than mine was!
I was very impressed with my joint of brisket, although DS wasn't impressed at me cooking it in the slow cooker with the veggies as he's decided he's "gone off" beef stew type meals as he calls them :rolleyes:
It was very succulent and tasty though, but in hind sight I should have cooked it the day before and sliced it cold, as it just fell apart trying to carve it warm, so didn't turn out very economical as we ate big chunks of it :doh:"An Ye Harm None, Do What Ye Will"

It all looks in the peak of condition too. I've munched an apple already
Which reminds me...

Squeaky , Great minds think alike! I received my first organic fruit and veg box yesterday. I found the suppliers using information posted on MSE. Anyway I'm very pleased with my find. I ordered a small veg box at £6.90 and a small fruit box at £6.50. Contains around 6lbs of veg and 5lbs of fruit. Spent last night cooking and filling up freezer. Am feeling very self rightous today!
However, one problem - Vegatables incuded a kolrabi. Never had it before, no idea what to make. Anyone out there got any vegetarian kolrabi recipes?One half of the world cannot understand the pleasures of the other0 -
kholrabi, looks like a turnip, but tastes similar to marrow for some reason
i just tend to cut into chunks and roast
the only recipe i have found that uses kohl rabi is kohl mornay - basically cauliflower cheese, but obviously with kohl instead of cauli
not a very exotic veg, all in all lol0 -
Yep. treat it much the same as turnip.
Oh, and a google search on "kohlrabi recipe" will get you lots of new ideas Hi, I'm a Board Guide on the Old Style and the Consumer Rights boards which means I'm a volunteer to help the boards run smoothly and can move and merge posts there.

Re Kohl Rabi, my father in law peels it and eats it like an apple, with cheese. It's not bad in coleslaw and other salads, either.0 -
Have just found out that kohlrabi can be used, peeled and cubed in a stir fry! So that is what I'm going to do with the one I got in my box yesterday.Our days are happier when we give people a bit of our heart rather than a piece of our mind.

Just wondering about the spelling of 'kohlrabi' and is it one word or two? Between us we've managed four spellings in five posts. Does anyone know which is correct? One half of the world cannot understand the pleasures of the other0 -
Dictionary dot com have it as a single word spelled the way you have it.
