Butter Beans

Hello! I have a draft post about our Roses success waiting to be published...i can't seem to write something that sounds quite good enough...it was such a fantastic day i can't do it justice...i guess soon enough i'll just post what i've got!

In the meantime, my dinner is delicious. It's the second half of a batch of curry i made yesterday so it tastes extra good, having sat and stewed in the tupperware tub overnight. It's just onions, carrots and tomatoes and spices (hurrah to me for not using curry powder but using separate spices) - and also the amazingly inspired addition of butter beans - i've never thought of it before but it was a bare-cupboard day so i put in whatever i had (apart from the tin of tuna which i thought really wouldn't work) but anyway they're just right! I'm gonna put them in every curry! They taste gorgeous plain but in curry they absorb all the flavour but maintain their lovely texture - and reheated after a day of absorbing they're just mmmmm! Also today i remembered to put a bit of butter in the rice after i'd cooked it so it all tastes rather wonderful!

Anyway, busy busy, gotta run

The college kitchen staff put some giant butter beans in our curry the other day. The rest of the evening in the computer was never free from a fart for more than 5 minutes!
