I'll endeavour to do more like this, then!<br /><br />Helen - of course!<br /><br />Greedy Diva - Lard is the answer to all. <br /><br />Catty - thanks! Home made really is in a different league, isn't it?<br /><br />Mathilde - thanks!<br /><br />Chris - I think your love of the piggy has qualified you, yes. <br /><br />Mr Noodles - thanks! Yes, I am a young one... <br /><br />Gin & Crumpets - perhaps tea? Thanks :) <br /><br />Food Urchin - Yes, it's a savoury cake. It tastes a bit turnipy, has a smooth, paste-like texture. The frying gives great crispy bits, and inside the chunks of sossidge, mushroom, shrimp etc. flavour it.<br /><br />The Shed - Thanks. It's definitely not a cake in the traditional sweet sense!Hollow Legshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152329184111658897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4148635935379992641.post-89481076956282408212010-02-15T10:13:40.161+00:002010-02-15T10:13:40.161+00:00I admit that I had reservations about a cake made ...I admit that I had reservations about a cake made from turnips, but this looks delicious. <br /><br />Happy new year!<br />NThe Shedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01464898095881984697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4148635935379992641.post-56590851086387210822010-02-15T09:16:27.050+00:002010-02-15T09:16:27.050+00:00Turnip cake?
