last night was another risotto – prawn, chili and ginger, one of our favourites. I went to the fridge to find some salad leaves to accompany it and, inexplicably, there were none. I blame the kittens – they eat *everything*.
the closest I could find to salad was spinach, so I took several handfuls, washed it well, then dumped it in a frying pan with all its water, splashed some honegar* on it, and cooked it very quickly, stirring all the while, until it wilted. Then I mixed it into the risotto and served it.
*highly* recommended.
*honegar – found in Waitrose last week, a mixture of wine vinegar and Vermont honey. I can’t remember the last time I bought a prepared salad dressing, but this caught our eye, and very nice it is too.
