Celeriac, potato and onion bake.
Line lasagne type dish with layers of sliced potato, celeriac and onion.
Repeat layers until dish is almost full.
Dot with butter, then pour cream over the lot.
( you can mash a few anchovies into the cream if you like)
Cover with foil and bake until cooked, most of the cream will have been absorbed by the veggies.

Bliss!!

If this is a cunning scheme to force me into a reducing diet, then it may just work.  :P

Polenta with rosemary and reggiano cooked in chicken stock.
You are missing bliss!!



Polenta! I'd rather eat a poorly monkey ;D


Especially one cooked on the gorilla!   :D

The West Coast Wild Food Festival each year features "mountain oysters" as a favoured and popular dish.

Hardly qualifies as "wild food" Lesley - unless it reflects the feelings of the donor!!
