Reading Mr Slater's kitchen diaries has not only been a learning curve in terms of cooking skills but also in knowledge of ingredients.
A medlar tree - apparently bears fruit like a russet apple. The flavour I am told is part lychee, part over ripe apple. However I cannot bake this as suggested because I don't know - and my friends don't know anyone with a medlar tree!!!
So on with the recipe of today A pie of mushrooms and spinach
I ended up with far too much sauce and filling - maybe it was the size of my pie dish. Not sure what the pastry should have looked like - Mr Slater said cut into 5 cm squares and overlap them, which I did.
