I like green beans with insanely garlic vinaigrette and toasted almonds. A possible riff?

Hmmm. Maybe something to try next time... Just finished making the "curry" (really just steam cooked with slow cooked onions and cinnamon quills in oil, and a dash of turmeric and coriander powder). It's a fusion xmas since the olds are gonna want some rice and curry so that's my backup contribution.

I had a bit of raw fennel before I chucked one bulb in thr oven (also as a backup for the raw one) and it was surprisingly light in that dreaded aniseed flavour. Thanks, fancy grocer
