Oh, my poor neglected food blog! Which is about to be even more neglected, as with an election approaching (timed, by the look of it, to clash most vilely with the grant application high season at work), and more than…
An actual savoury recipe! Who knew I could still do those? Actually, I have an uneasy feeling I’ve done something very like this before. I mean, me, pasta, vegetables – that’s basically my default work night dinner, frankly. But I…
