NigelSlater’sBlackBananaCake Recipe. I even had a faint “Hovis” embedded in the sides of my cake as well as underneath……it was an easy recipe and I plan to make it again with all of Nigel’s ingredient suggestions, as I imagine that dark chocolate chips and hazelnuts will enhance this recipe even further
Next up Alex from Gingey Bites cooked up a Lovely Lentil & Spinach Pie which she adapted from the legend that is “NigelSlater” so this is just going to be brilliant right
I altered quantities, made a few additions and I used a bar of Green & Black's butterscotch chocolate that I'd been saving up for just such an occasion
Sadly the closest I got to foraging my coriander was a nice chat with the market stall holder in Kentish Town, allow perhaps braving the cold, the wet, maniacal black cab drivers, charity muggers and a few kamikaze pigeons counts as outdoors and intrepid
I first made this cake after watching NigelSlater (one of my favourite Chefs) make his BlackBananaCake on his TV programme, NigelSlater's Simple Suppers
That combined with the memory of Jonathan Lovekin's beautiful picture in NigelSlater's Tender I for lamb meatballs with beetroot, sent me striding off to the market and returning home with a large brown paper bag full of beetroot
here's Lou from Please Do Not Feed The Animals who always manages to come up trumps, with a wonderful bowl of Smoked Haddock with Lentils randomly chosen from NigelSlater's Eat
