The young Red Cabbage
The weather has been good for the past few days, I took advantage of it, to do some work around the garden. Tidying up, fertilising the plants and mulching the vegetable patch that is what I did today. I don't have many vegetables though, only lamb lettuces, cabbages, they are tiny still; five Savoy and five red cabbages in the patch. This is my third time to plant cabbages. The herbs started to shoot, soon they will fill up space.
I am looking forward to having fine cooking of the fresh cabbages and sharing the new recipes.
Today, I prepared diced vegetables and Ricotta salad on red cabbage with glazed walnuts. It is dressed with lime citrus dressing. A light salad, with a lot of textures. It's a very delightful meal. Delicious.
The components of the salad:
- diced boiled beetroots, diced pan-fried yacon and diced steamed ricotta/egg-chives
- shredded cabbage and pear, roasted-glazed walnuts and herbs; mints -parsleys

This year I planted cabbages and herbs in a large pot, they are looking good. I put some mulch for them as well, hope I did the right thing. I did not forget to put some slag bait as well.
Other fresh vegetables are always suitable for the family, we have a lot of salads and veg in our diet.

I am pleased about the pleasant weather, I did have fun in the garden today.
Until next time
