Colours of Autumn
Ever since S came, I learnt from her to wash veg submerged in water and wash it thoroughly to get all the gunk off (and worms yucks!). So here are the autumn veg swimming in my sink, reminding me that it is autumn and winter is fast approaching and that its time to embrace the sweetness of root veg and the other seasonal personalities.
So out comes a free range organic slab of pork leg. I don't have much luck with roasting...but after experimenting with heat, I managed to get a crispy skin! Something I have finally been able to accomplish after 5 years of roast cooking experience. Ah ha! something to put on my cookery resume. it got a tiny bit charred, but alas how else to get that chargrilled smokey taste.
And here is what that sink ful of veg turned into...Honeyed Roasted Japanese Pumpkin, Pasta and Cauliflower Cheese Bake, Garlic and Pepper Roast Pork and Stir fried Kale with bread crumbs. Kale is a beautiful green with a slight nutty taste. Ahh, it taste like kai lan but with a lemony slightly bitter after taste. Its refreshing and has a meatiness about it.
I think S would be proud to see so many vegetarian options here...
