Glad you like them Sue. I haven't had a look at the mystery blog yet, I got stuck on "Amuse Your Bouche" and am now dithering about trying Quinoa for this dish; I don't like the look of it though...
I'll try that again!
You are right Toni, the dish does not look appetising, but I am sure it is if you like lots of garlic, which I don't!
Might do something like that but get some more colour in to it, toms, radish, oranges etc., but I would just waft a clove of garlic over the top for me.
Are we having fun yet? I am!
I don't like the look of it either.....too much green stuff! Broccoli is one of those veggies I still can't bring myself to like, although I do eat the odd bit of it (husband loves it) as it's good for you!
I like garlic.....it doesn't like me very much though.
learning to love veg…..except celery :-O
I love garlic but some days it dislikes me, no telling when. I like broccoli but prefer the stalks to the flower, especially the main stem, peeled and sliced and cooked in stock.
I have things like Bulgar Wheat and Pearl Barley that I seldom use, I should perhaps find things to cook with them. Couscous too; I used to make that quite tasty but now I can't recall how I did it.
I'll try that again!
I think the secret to making quite bland grains like bulgur, couscous etc tasty, is to cook them initially in a flavoured stock rather than just water, that provides a good base whatever you then add to them. I like chargrilled veggies with grains, and a strong lemony/balsamic/soy & honey dressing.
