The eleventh month of the year is here… And it’s suddenly bitterly cold scarf weather with bluish walks to work and darker afternoons and the sun goes down before five o’clock… not my favourite time of the year, but it’s good in terms of hot, stodgy meals! Make a note of the following fruit and vegetables for when you pop down to your local market so you can make the tastiest and healthiest meals you can this month (please note that these lists are for the UK climate only):
