Fruit of the vine

A FEW weeks ago I flew to London at the invitation of BBC Radio to participate in Veg Talk.

The presenter, Lucinda Montefiore, asked me a few months ago to choose a vegetable and then cook one or two recipes on radio.

I adore vegetables and my favourite varies through the seasons. The programme was in July, a period of great abundance in the garden, so the choice was even more difficult.
