Watching you prgram on Choise TV and enjoying it. Just ove 10 years ago my late husband had a quadruple bypass& I switched our food to mostly Asian / asian style. Frittes remind me of Bhaji. This rescipe is a must for me & my friends. Love the program & the inight you give about the food & the people you meet Regards Ruth Norman

Soaking a clay-pot

Before cooking with a clay-pot soak it in water (which is absorbed into the pores of the clay). As the pot heats up in the oven, the water will evaporate, producing steam, this will prevent the food from drying out.

Agar-Agar

Based on seaweed and used as a stabiliser or thickener in many food products, agar-agar is a vegetarian alternative to gelatine. It is sold in many of the large supermarkets in powder form, as flakes and as bars.
