- Kashmiri paneer: What a cracking recipe from Mallika at Quick Indian Cooking: kashmiri paneer. It has paneer, tomatoes, yoghurt, lots of spices and some almonds. Delicious.
- Simple stews: Times Online have a great series on cooking shortcuts. They cover ingredients and basic processes. Good examples are these two on stews and red cabbage.
- Lovely mashed potatoes: It was Cheap Date Sydney who directed me to this recipe from 101 Cookbooks: mashed potatoes with olive oil and kale. I’ve posted before about how I make a healthier mash but I haven’t thought to stir green vegies through. Am loving the look of Heidi’s recipe.

oh would you look at that! what a lovely surprise on a Friday morning :)
it really is a wonderful recipe/concept. i fully intend to try more of Heidi’s recipes in the future.
the first time we bought kale we had it mixed into mashed potatoes! kinda colcannon inspired. we’re trying to grow kale but the bugs keep eating before we do.
Lindsey – I’d eaten the potatoes from my box, before I saw the recipe, but next week it’ll be on the menu.
And yes rosyapple – Colcannen is exactly what it’s like. I hadn’t made that connection. Hope you get to eat some of your kale, it’s a lovely, lovely vegetable.
That’s a nice article on the saturated fats. It’s annoying that popular reporting of science tends to focus on a single issue, so it’s great to read an article that takes more things into consideration.
Awww thanks. Some super inspiration here. I’m going to stick leaf spinach in the mash for my fish pie tonight!
