Elephant garlic

It's raining and I have a cold, so this should do the trick today.

Elephant garlic isn't garlic at all. It's part of the leek family. So although it looks like a massive bulb of the ordinary stuff it tastes much milder and can be treated more like a vegetable. I am marinating some large prawns with half a clove of this stuff cut into matchsticks. Served with broccoli and mashed potato, ultimate comfort food.
