Spiced raw lentils .... and a beautiful sunrise in the winter

We had a beautiful morning.  A really pretty day in winter.

We did our day.  

Then cooked an unreal meal.  Of:

Spiced raw lentils (orange lentils soaked then added tempered mustard seeds, fresh red chilli, fresh ginger and finely grated celeriac (a brilliant combination which would be amazing with crisp skinned sea bass or bream. 

Andy did a potoato dish.  It was subtle and beguiling.  It had to be tasted to understand.  He cooked off onion, added precooked potato and toasted off an amazing spice mix.  A little tomato kechup and yoghurt.  OMG.  Delicious.  

We cooked red cabbage, simply with onion, cumin and gochujang.  Yep, that Korean chilli paste which is utterly addictive.  And it works with cumin so damn well.

With roasted turkey leg, cooked in spice but not tandoori style, just cooked in spices.  Very simply cooked.  

Chutney, raita, rice, charred flatbread.

One of the best 'Indian' meals we've cooked.  It's not authentic but it tasted amazing.
