My new found passion


It is spring now and finally it getting sunnier….. My new found passion or love…??  GARDENING !!!!




Started gardening end of winter and **touchwood….it going on well….Planted 2 type of cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, Brussels sprout, varieties of tomato, spinach, silverbeat, bok choy, celery, mint, capsicums, zucchini, cucumber, potatoes, Vietnamese mint, eggplant, basil, watermelon and rockmelon….

 
Just started harvesting tomato and spinach so far….and it is still spring….hoping for a better harvest towards summer and early autumn……


Discarded the big oversize leaves and only picked the small to medium leaves….and yet I managed to get a bowl full of spinach. It’s just nice for the two of us and of course not forgetting our lil girl…



Dish up a quick Spinach Stir-fry (Poriyal). Heat Oil, add in mustard seeds, chopped onions and ginger-garlic paste, then add the chopped spinach leaves and finally add in lil grated coconut. In my case, I just add in the desiccated coconut. Salt to taste.


 

 
 

 
And it went well with Sambhar and Tofu Sambal....Simple vegetarian dish....;)
