Harvest Monday

One crop which i have been gleefully harvesting is potatoes.



Tubers planted in last years compost/pumpkin tank, and covered with lots of rotted down lucerne mulch and straw from the chook pen.


Some of these potatoes went into making one of my favourite meals.


                                            potato, flour, Parmesan cheese, salt and egg yolks.






A simple tomato sauce with home grown tomatoes, garlic and onion and topped with a little chopped parsley and basil................



Head over to Daphne's Dandelions and see what else has been harvested today around the globe.

    Oh lovely - I do enjoy gnocchi, and I haven't made any for ages. What variety were the spuds?

    Very nice looking crop of potatoes! Hoping I have a good crop of spuds this year, love little new potatoes just boiled and buttered.

    I bet that dinner tasted as good as it looks. What a great feeling having grown those potatoes and then making them into a tasty dinner:)
