Cook new pots, add to above whilst still warm and serve.

I am now going to supermarket in driving rain to get ingredients for something comforting like lasagne...

I have two I like.

One is boil potatoes, chop up some spring onions and chives and put in a bowl. Make a vinaigrette with lemon juice and zest, olive oil, gralic, grain mustard and S&P. Toss all together.

Other is boil potatoes, chop a shallot and some dill. Make a sauce with mayo (you can make it but I use shop bought), some English mustard and olive oil to thin to right consistency, S&P. Toss together with some capers (I like the ones preserved in salt). This one is really good with fish.

both of htose sounds great

not sure about grapefruit and mango, but readily available here! Gosh your knocking them out now!

S'pore is VERY humid. Thankfully ds1 has a fever so all the windows are closed and the aircon on. Dh doesn't like it on all the time, which is fair enough as we are on the 18th floor so get a good breeze (of hot air)

do sinshine mummys

i was born in singapore Q

not really into dill but could substitute it with chives maybe?

How long were you here for cod?

really need to find a good supermarket, the last one I went to was a bit crap so will try Tanglin shopping mall tomorrow, which will be better but expensive me thinks. I miss Waitrose sooooo much
