Ratatouille


The chickens are laying well, at least two eggs a day from four hens. And the vegetable garden is still very productive - sweetcorn, chard, the first pak choi, and lots of different salad leaves, but the courgettes have now finished, and beans are slowing down with shorter days and chilly nights. I gave up on the aubergines and peppers ripening further in the greenhouse, so harvested them, but due to the lousy summer, only a single bell pepper had turned red, and along with the entire crop of tiny aubergines, they provided sufficient material for just one tasty ratatouille.
