I love reading the food sections of various newspapers around the world. I think that the recipes that are without a doubt the best come from the New York Times. Never overly complicated, often a bit different, usually accompanied by lovely stories, and without fail - delicious.
Take this for example - about a woman who owns an Indian restaurant in Vancouver, and was horrified when some men visiting from Montana ordered only meat, and quickly and happily turned down any suggestion of veg. The woman told them she couldn't do that for them, and would make them a veg dish to go with their meat - if the didn't like it, they didn't have to pay. All ends well, because they loved it, got their intake of greens, and happily paid.
Last night for dinner I made these three dishes of hers - kale, chickpeas and lamb, and they were beautiful. We fired up the BBQ for the first time this summer, which was amazingly exciting. Nothing smells quite as good as fat charring on a BBQ on a warm night. It was all really easy, and we'll definitely be doing it again.
