lentils & thistles

Bracing for the winter months and vowing to try out more new cook-ups, but Sunday dinner was a happy, whoever was in the fridge affair...

* puy lentils slow cooked with carrot, zucchini, lots of good dried oregano, mint & topped with Dodoni feta and olives

** baked pumpkin and cauliflower (my new favourite thing, baked cauliflower)

*** thistle greens gleaned on an excursion to the ever interesting Rockdale (prime op-shopping, burek and continental vegetables). Greens boiled and dressed with oil, lemon, garlic, s&p thanks to combined tips from Spiros & the grocer. Quite silky ~ delicious!

**** radish & cucumber for some crunch, dressed with oil, lemon, sherry vinegar & the last shakes of dulse.
