    Whew back home again to a very nice offer on the house! another viewing this afternoon and then decision time I think! So I've actually been able to do some enthusiastic cooking this morning for the first time in ages!

    Lunch will be home made sweet potato falafels in wraps with parsley salad (from the polytunnel), home made pickled red onion, hummus and sweet chilli sauce.

    Supper tonight will be home made Channa Massala, home made Aloo Gajaar (potato and carrot curry), home made Pilau Rice and home made Cucumber and Mint Raita a sort of celebration meal for us. Black coffee to finish.

    Do you cook the Aloo Gajar in a pressure cooker, Mrs LW? I've just looked up a couple of recipes which suggested it be cooked that way.

    Hi Pipkin I make the Aloo Gajaar in a saucepan on the stove top, fry the seeds in oil until they pop, then add in the carrot and potato cubes and cook until they start to soften then add the spices, fry for a minute, add the water and pop on a lid and cook until the veg is cooked through. Very easy to do and yummy too!

    Lunch today will be some leek and potato soup to use up leeks that are beginning to go up to flower from the garden plot, He Who Knows will have another falafel wrap with his and I'll have a couple of hard boiled eggs.

    Supper this evening will be a couple of gammon steaks from the farm shop that we'll use regularly once we've made the move, it's delicious meat and all their produce is in good condition in the shop. I'll do some jacket potatoes and a nice crisp salad to go with them and then there will be some blackberry and apple crumble if it's wanted , trying to clear the freezer of home grown produce.

    MrsLW got everything crossed for you re house, younwill 'know' when it's right x

    Dinner today is Lamb Curry as cooked by my beloved - yesterday became steak and chips - I still can't taste a lot due to this bloomin cold so it's all the same to me - annoying as I miss 'tasting' my food.
