So, who wants to help ... to instaurate the cellar?

Limpet dear - my blood is kept artificially thin so I feel the cold disproportionately

Hence my need for such devices

Cooking group today was potato casserole

So that’s dinner sorted as I started some smoked streaky lardons in the pot earlier

It is now burbling in the oven with my lardons adding their flavour to the dish

I cooked a lot of small potatoes yesterday, so will fashion smoked haddock & spinach fishcakes.

I can crush/mash the rest, & freeze them

With your potto casserole, you have set me thinking of - and I know it’s a different thing - Pan Haggerty.

But I am out of haggerts.

This casserole is certainly not Irish

Garlic powder mixed herbs soy sauce and chopped tomatoes and red kidney beans all feature in the recipe…

Sounds a bit of a muddle to me. Which probably means it will be utterly delicious. Would be interested in your verdict.

Well I started by making smoked streaky bacon lardons and frying them in the casserole pot so my mucking about with flavour started earlier than when the dish was all put together and I am cooking it for 4 hours at 180 rather than 2 hours at 200

Smelling good thus far

Can’t do with red kidney beans,I’m afraid

Not since that afternoon in 1997…

Poisonous unless boiled vigorously.

Most things that want to kill one are better for a bit of boiling

Well, yer small crunchy delicious bird (to take a random example) can fight back or bog off somewhere else. Plant can’t do that; its only option is to try to kill you so that its relatives can feast on your corpse.
