Lemon Pickle, Broad Bean & Mint Mille Feuille

I made this delicious broad bean mille feuille the other night when my delightful friend, Sarah Mcdee, came over for supper.  The recipe was two pages long and I thought it was going to be very complicated to make but it was surprisingly easy altho it was time consuming.  Sarah got very hungry and ate the kids dinner first!!!  Anyway I am practising all these recipes from a book called "Terre A Terre" by Amanda Powley and this recipe is called "Send my regards to Broadway" which I love. (was going to pretend that they were mine but my partner, James, said I would go to prison)......

Tikka Kachumba and Green Gazpacho

This is surprisingly delicious - its marinated halloumi in lots of indian spices and yoghurt and then griddled for a very short time and we had it with roasted butternut squash and a cumin lassi.  The cucumber salad with lime dressing was the perfect marriage.  The green gazpacho didn't have a single tomato in and it was very refreshing and had a strong and powerful taste.  Super healthy too - lots of spinach!! Popeye eat your heart out.....
