To kick off -

LAZY is a word I will be frequently bandy about, because let's face it cooking can be a bore when you are rooting around the veg drawer for something less shrivelled and edible than last week's romaine lettuce!


These are my absolutecouldn'tlivewithutthempleasenevermakemechopfreshchilieveragain ingredients!

Lazy Chili
Lazy Garlic
Celery - adds so much depth to soups and sauces
Stock pots ... I use a variety of instant stocks, never make my own and love the Marigold Swiss bouillon but it can be a bit salty!
