I am aware that there is a growing band of people out there who have the impression that I must include alcohol in my cooking. Not true, I say!
Sure, booze helps with many a Spanish meal. Don't take my word for it.
Another great and adaptable Spanish vegetable is the seemingly humble courgette. They grow in vast quantities in Murcia and in other regions such as Andalucia.
I often look at a courgette in a Spanish market and wonder what can be done with it. I've been handed many free in the past by generous neighbours, but I have had to take advice from them when it comes to how best to serve them up.
