A sort of black pudding pizza?
In the end I cooked a veggie one using up stuff I happen to have such as courgettes, roasted peppers, and used half a bottle of manzanilla, and my really nice olive oil, and then cooked a smaller pan of chicken and chorizo paella to mix in to the veggie one for me and Rich, who are not veggie. Both of my victims said it was really nice and asked for seconds. So I guess I can still cook a decent paella.
I bought them because I'd never seen them before and it was a wise move. They're bland and creamy and would make amazing dal.Mung Dal? I need more types of lentils in my collection.
Aww. Mum's cooking can be the best. Actually I felt bad for mine as my Dad's an awkward bugger and I was dead fussy as a kid, so suspect she gave up. Remember when I started doing roasts for her when I went home and the look of horror on her face when I was putting a bit of beef in the oven for less then an hour.
What's your Mum's heritage if you don't mind me asking?
it's always like 'Eurgh, wtf? 
Aaaaah yeah... 
'. Iirc though, it's one of those things you either react to or you don't.
My mum remembered being at school after the war when their teacher brought in a banana for them all to try for the first time!
Also - I get asparagus wee and yeah, you don't have to get in close to smell it
Sat - we had ham/salad cream/avocado sandwiches, crisps and mini Kitkats.
Sun - a chicken and veg stir fry with courgetti and strawberries and meringues with plain yoghurt.
Today - pissaladiere with baby plum tomatoes then caramel sponge pudding with squirty cream. Also got a mango that needs eating so the kids can have some of that, too (I'm not keen on mangoes).
). No one is entirely sure why but it may be down to a genetic mutation:).
