Green spaces grow and emerge,
around me and inside too,
I breathe and I rest,
and watch the old turn into new......
Dill and spring onion rotis, pudina aloo, spinach dal,
zucchini flower tempura, goats yoghurt cucumber raita
Our Patio Garden
Zucchini Flowers
Stuffed Zucchini Flower Tempura
Zucchini flowers, stuffed with a mixture of creamy goats cheese,
basil and thyme, sea salt and black pepper - coated with a batter
made with gluten free flour blend, cayenne pepper, sparkling
water - then deep fried in mild olive oil.
I don't remember the last time I made any deep fried food,
but these zucchini flowers were totally worth it :-)
Trevor liked them so much, I'm making again tonight!

Mint from our herb patch, my favorite herb :-)
Pudina Aloo ( Mint and lemony Potatoes)
Boil potatoes, keep aside.
Green paste - blend fresh mint, fresh coriander,
dessicated coconut, lemon juice, water,
sea salt and ginger.
Heat oil, fry cumin seeds then add coriander powder,
garam masala and turmeric, add the paste,
stir fry for a few minutes
and then add the boiled potatoes and cook for a few
minutes till the paste starts drying and coating
the potatoes.
Squezze some lemon juice, serve hot with
rotis and raita......
Dinner outside in the patio, summer pleasures :-)
Apologies for the lack of precise recipes,
I'm just not too well these days, so do my best
with cooking, photographing and blogging.....
Keep it Simple.
Be Creative.
Taste and Play.
Find your Own Way.
