Cooking is at once child's play and adult joy. And, cooking done with care is an act of love |

“This root [the potato], no matter how much you prepare it, is tasteless and floury. It cannot pass for an agreeable food, but it supplies a food sufficiently abundant and sufficiently healthy for men who ask only to sustain themselves. The potato is criticised with reason for being windy, but what matters windiness for the vigorous organisims of peasants and labourers?” |
| Denis Diderot (1713-1784) L'Encyclopedie (1751-1772) |
Never eat more than you can lift. |

As the days grow short, some faces grow long. But not mine. Every autumn, when the wind turns cold and darkness comes early, I am suddenly happy. It's time to start making soup again. |

Part of the secret of a success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside. |

Fry the onion, garlic and chilli in a little water or olive oil. Add
the base and stalks of the broccoli (i.e. everything except the
flowerets), and the courgettes. When all this has softened
sufficiently add the tomatoes and the herbs. Leave to simmer
(covered) for fifteen minutes. While that is underway combine the
beans, stock, soya milk, yoghurt, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a
liquidiser until a smooth mixture is obtained. After the fifteen
minutes are up add the bean mixture and simmer uncovered for a
further five minutes. Add the corn and then enough tomato puree to
take away the anaemic look. Serve on its own or with a macaroni style
pasta.
