Broad Bean Burgers.

I have loads of wonderful broad beans now.

I also have baby potatoes.

These are two of the ingredients needed for Broad Bean Burgers. http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2007/sep/01/foodanddrink.recipes1

So that was last night's dinner and today's lunch. Somehow I remember really enjoying them when I made them last year but they didn't seem quite so good this time.

A work collegue told me that the best place to plant beetroot is in soil that you've just dug potatoes out of. I've just dug up some potatoes so I thought I'd give it a go.

Multi Vegetable Paella.

Yesterday I picked these delicious Broad Beans and
put them in a multi vegetable Paella.
It's a truly delicious recipe. Last time I made it was for Hogmanay at the request of my lover who says this is his favourite.
In the winter I made it with frozen broad beans which tasted fine but the freshly picked beans are so sweet and lovely.

This is the recipe http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2008/apr/12/foodanddrink.recipe

and I think that mine looked just as good. 

Finally something to eat.

It's been a slow year, not just for me it would seem and a poor year to start blogging about my growing escapades.

Today I dug up and ate some potatoes (quite plain, I cooked them in the oven with a little olive oil and seasoning and ate them with humous) Tasty but simple.

I have broad beans now too. Not quite ready to pick but almost. yipee!!
