I'll have to leave out the coriander though as my husband is violently allergic to it - I wonder if that is anything to do with the aldehydes? I might try using mint instead.

I'm firmly in the 'loving coriander' camp but I'm soooo with you on the 'evil bananas' front!!<br />As luck would have it I have both carrots and coriander in the fridge to use up right this minute, I feel these fritters coming on, though I have no snow to cool them in. ;-)Ruthdigshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01560136830586473734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26298373.post-14429395735937338202013-02-07T22:27:28.056+00:002013-02-07T22:27:28.056+00:00He did, didn't he (still grinning that he repl...He did, didn't he (still grinning that he replied!)

I wanted to cool the cakes down quickly and there was about a foot of snow on the picnic table in the garden - plonked the tray down and created an effect like the styrofoam packaging you get when you buy electrical goods!

But she, like me, has battled over the years and doesn't hate it quite so much.

There is also a therory about this that there is some kind of inherited memory because coriander smells of bedbugs! I couldn't possibly say!<br /><br />But if coriander isn't your thing I am sure this would work really well with perhaps a mixture of parsley and mint.

Definitely be making more of them - either as a side dish or in the summer as part of a mezze menu.<br /><br />And you're right, I won't have a word said against the sainted Nigel (what is it about Word of Mouth readers that have them frothing at the mouth about him?)<br /><br />AND ... Nigel replied several times to my tweets on this recipe - what a nice man! Though I am not sure he read the post since I actually cocked them up.
