Goat's cheese, sweet potato, spinach, red onion, roasted garlic. Can't go wrong. That said, being vegetarian, I've not tried their meat pies, so maybe I've grown accustomed to the taste of gritty gloop... BTW if you're looking for inspiration, try The Gate's recent cookbook (they're a restaurant in N London), Leith's and the Crank's Bible. And the World Food Cafe books are ace too. Best of luck!

You can never be a perfect moralist, but you can always be better!

We've made the ratatouille (lovely use of dried orange peel) and the butternut squash/apricot/couscous thing that was wonderful too. I've never eaten in the restaurant though, only bought their meringues :) Cool!

I hope it's been proof-read better than the recipes on their website, though - I made one cake where the recipe was riddled with errors. Although, to be fair, when I moaned they were fixed almost immediately, and I got a thank you note back from Mr Ottolenghi himself.

I don't suppose 'Matt' (if that's his real name) works for Peta or the Vegetarian Society, does he? His comments look like a pretty clumsy attempt at propaganda to me (apologies if I'm wrong, Matt).
