Finally we get to eat some carrots from the garden The netting seems to have worked as we have no flies, but the shapes are interesting! They tasted lovely too.
The fennel is really tasty and delicious baked with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

Vegetable harvest
The veg garden's looking good and really delivering now.
Just some of the fruits (roots and tubers) of our labours, and we didn't pick lettuces or beetroot today. We seem to have rather a lot of cucumbers, and unfortunately there's only so much tsatsiki we can eat. At least we could freeze the broccoli and cauliflower!

Beetroot Chocolate Fudge Cake
I'm not a big fan of beetroot so when I came home to find Jennifer had planted loads I thought I could try a recipe I found for a beetroot chocolate cake. I'll admit I was sceptical but it was really easy to make and is tasty (you can't really taste the beetroot)! It is very moist and gooey but very sweet. I found this recipe on the channel four food website but I missed out the honey from the topping and might try halving it for the cake. The beetroot was a fantastic colour too.
