March is a month of fish. Cockles, sardines, oysters and clams are all in season at the moment, not to mention sea bass and muscles. It really is the month of the fruits of the sea.
Complimenting these are spring onions, kale and blood oranges.
So why not opt for these sustainable ingredients that also happen to be good for your heart and general wellbeing!
Not sure what to have? How about a clam chowder, or sea bass baked on a bed of kale and spring onions with a splash of orange juice and zest? Garlicky mussels are wonderfully fresh at this time of year.
Vegetarian? Why not throw some kale, spring onions, orange zest with some pine nuts and bean-sprouts in a stir fry with the sauce of your choice!
It is a little early for lamb as yet. Personally, I do not eat lamb, preferring all animals to have had a good chance at life, but each to their own, I would never presume to tell others how to eat and would very much like that kindness returned.
Enjoy the ‘fruits’ of Spring.
On another note, I have written 3 books. 2 are part of a series set in Scoltand about the Sidhe, fairy folk. Available on kindle and in paperback:
The Island of the Mist is book 2
The Stone in the Sword is book 1
The 3rd book is an adult, sexy witchy werewolf/vampire story set in New York and featuring a strong female lead character, again available in kindle and paperback formats:
The Wolf, the Witch and the Coffin
