My wife arrived home this evening with another cauliflower (amongst other things) which she had been given by her mate.

It looks like aloo ghobi tomorrow then.

I think this recent glut of cauliflowers is beginning to affect me.....

My wife has just returned with two more cauliflowers, a bag full of limes and a shed load of coriander!

And she's been to a funeral!

Pictures tomorrow.

Fenugreek Spice is available in two forms, crushed leaves and seeds. I have the leaves (green), but am still waiting on the seeds. Fenugreek is used in a lot of Indian foods along with Fennel, Cumin and other spices for Curries and Chutneys. I may use it in any number of ways, as my creativity suggests.
 
Time for my first big shop of the new year. I also got some more Brexit stash items.

Dr oetker cream of tartar (not available here, but necessary for some baking)
Bisto cheese sauce base powder for lazy days and neon mac & cheese
Bisto onion gravy powder
Shreddies cereal
Tinned sour black cherries (princess)

Regular shop:
Organic chicken breast
Organic minced beef
Ready peeled shrimp
Battered cod 'fish fingers'
Gouda cheese
Cottage cheese
Goat's cheese
Buffalo mozzarella
Parmesan cheese
Cream cheese
Butter for baking
Whole organic milk
Organic apples
Organic pears
Cauliflower
Medjoul dates
Oranges
Tinned tomatoes (san marzano)
Whole wheat bread
Sandwich loaf
Chinese five spice
Freeze dried oregano (much better than regular dried)
Quaker oatmeal

Seems I bought the entire cheese department :laugh:

We're having polenta later this week. That's 1 of the meals I'm hoping Craig can handle. 😇 😈

Do you know that I thought of you two while I was making my polenta? I know it's one of the Italian dishes you like and I really hope CraigC can handle it well :)

Anyway, traditional polenta bramata is definitely a great product, but I regretted the instant one for a moment, especially my arm which has yet to deflate :laugh:
