Tried my first recipe from Anjum Anand’s ‘Indian Food made easy’ today, a spinach pilaff as a side dish for me and the kids. It was ok, fairly easy to cook and certainly tastier than something out of a packet. The rice was delicately flavoured and certainly fine to give to kids, not that my kids actually ate it though. Boy Lacer hates rice with a passion, so refused to touch it (sssh nobody tell him risotto is rice, as he does eat that), although when Girl Lacer, who didn’t eat hers either due to the green bits gave the said green bits to Boy Lacer he did eat that, so it just really was the fact that it was rice that put him off. I suspect I’ll be making the dish again, but probably not that often for the kids.
