Vegetables don't often get mentioned here ... it's more about the best way to roast an ox. Which is no bad thing. But Mono's discussion on seasonal veg got me thinking that we should share our ways for making veggies exciting.
I'll kick off with:
Steam peas and french beans, add a tiny splash of toasted sesame oil (with or without an equally small splash of extra virgin olive oil), a sprinkle of dried chilli flakes, and season with salt and pepper. Simple and yet very tasty.
AND
Mix some peas with a small amount of light batter (just enough to hold them together) and some freshly ground fennel seeds. Add a teaspoon of EVOO to a frying pan and heat. Add small blogs of the pea mix and fry on both sides until golden.

What if the Hokey Cokey IS what it's all about?!
