In Doy’s garden

Log it in Doydum and a row of beans sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.

Turkey's everyday soup: red lentils simmered with onion, carrot and a little potato, then blended smooth. It is usually served with a squeeze of lemon, a pinch of chilli flakes and bread on the side.

A swirl of melted butter with paprika on top, and the bread beside the bowl, change the total more than people expect.
