They'll become concentrated and crispy, and they'll have a lovely contrasting flavor, the slight bittersweet flavor of a brassica leaf compared to the really intense sweetness of a carrot.
and then the rounded-out allium flavor of garlic or onions, three things together like that, that's real deliciousness.
But even before you put it on the plate, you've got an opportunity to chuck in, say, I don't know, a handful of chickpeas for the last five minutes.
Creates texture, a little bit of creaminess, and again, a bit boring on their own.
But again, the contrast and compare, these different plants coming together on a plate, and if you've added a little bit of spice too...
I mean, that's a plate full of completely delicious food.
Concentrating flavors is a key thing to think about.
As soon as you start thinking about it, it becomes obvious when you're doing it.
And you start, oh, I see what I'm reducing this down to this.
So the flavors, you know, same thing happens when you bubble down a tomato sauce from a couple of tins of tomatoes.
You concentrate that flavor, concentrate the sweetness.
You've added a little garlic.
You get flavor from some olive oil.
Then you've got a base sauce that just wraps around so many different ingredients in a delicious way.
You started with that thing that people used to put carrots in their hat.
Things become boring because they look so familiar and we've taken them for granted and we have got nowhere close to exploring their full potential or possibilities.
As soon as you start doing that, they don't even look boring anymore.
You go, oh, carrots.
Yes, they've got that amazing feathery green frond.
That makes perfect sense to have that flowing like a peacock feather, but slightly less cruel to the birds, flowing off the back of your hat.
