BOOK REVIEW + RECIPE
I recently received the translated (Dutch) version of this beautiful book by @huwsgarden and @chef.sam.black, and what a joy it was to read it!

It is the perfect manual to start or improve your own vegetable garden and enjoy its produce the whole year round, with great instructions on just everything: how to plant and what, growing month by month, composting, building your own greenhouse and a ton of other great tips.

The last part of the book is dedicated to the “transformation” of your harvest in the kitchen.

If you’ve ever had a few courgette or pumpkin plants, you know that you get so many that you don’t know how to use them anymore. That’s when the “In the kitchen” chapter comes in handy, with great recipes for sauces, salads, soups, preserves, fermented foods, condiments, pastry, drinks and a lot more.

I got inspired by one of their dishes, a tray-bake made with left-over potatoes, so I used some thinly sliced taters that I had previously blanched, together with some cavolo nero (Tuscan kale) that had been blanched too. Both were left-overs from one of my cooking classes.

I added a jar of cooked white beans as an extra source of protein, and two different types of cheese, and the result was this delicious tray-bake.

Try it whenever you have left-over potatoes (also boiled or steamed, whole or diced) and choose any vegetables you have available to go with them.

You can find the recipe in ENG and NED on my blog here/link in bio:

🍎 Apples and other beautiful products that make the colder months more enjoyable.
Couldn’t do without them. Wouldn’t want to do without them.

As a matter of fact, I’m eating an apple right now. 🍎

Do you eat your apple a day? 🍎♥️
