Vegetables

[PaddyJames]

I like many vegetables, (though there are a few that you couldn't pay me to eat)
As for "favourite vegetable" though, that would really depend on which type of juicy animal flesh it's accompanying.

What ones don't you like Kev?

lolToo many to list really but some of the ones I really hate are any type of pumpkin or squash, broad beans, butter beans, aubergine.
I also don't like much salad stuff i.e. lettuce, cucumber

Not fussy or anything then

I made a stir fry for tea tonight in work and at the request of my colleague I added mange tout (???) for the first time …. Don’t understand the fuss, they were rank

Make a cottage pie and bung some veg amongst the mince and gravy. To top, instead of potato, use celeriac or parsnip. Or, a combination of both, or if you're a bit doubtful add a couple of spuds with them. You could also add a carrot or two.

Parsnip mash

Spice up a classic parsnip mash with the addition of cumin, chilli powder and nutmeg. This root veg mash provides a sweeter alternative to regular mash.

tbh, it's not me or Mrs degsy who are the problem its the parents. We alreay make the kids cottage pie and stuff, and put sneaky extra veg in it, they woof it down like a Labrador at his dish. If they do notice the extra veg they don't say, it's usually is there any more Nana.
The main anti vegged even eats brussels sprouts at ours...boiled to within an inch of their little lives in true - Yer Ma /Nan fashion - but she ests them, especially with a load of old style Bisto gravy.
The real problem is how to tell the parents...daughter in law mainly (mine field achtung!! etc) to stop being a head up the arse woke food nazis.

I'm banned by herself from saying too much...but I might just have to call a spade a kin shovel and see if the snowflakes melt.
Sometimes if you don't say the obvious, the obvious get overlooked..

They used to be fresh 'pea pod' peas the old style grocer couldnt sell because they had no peas in them.

As opposed to my favourite vegetables, mushrooms are my absolute worst. They're absolutely vomit inducingly disgusting. I have to cut them up small and mix them with other stuff to force them down.

Why bother, just 'K them off completely, plenty more veg.
Anyway theyre not a veg so built in excuse

There are times when they come as a side to something I've ordered and I don't notice before I order.
