Amandarin's this week will be about three to six dollars a ki.

It just they complent each other so lovely. You've got beautiful lamb. You can serve it with. It goes really well with chicken. It's great from roasting as well. You can add it to a casserole sort of in the same way you would celery, but it just gives a different sort of flavor. So you think about fennel. You're looking this week with about two to two dollars fifty.

You mentioned celery. Let's go straight to that thing that is packed with vitamin K.

There's some good value around in celery, and you're right, does have vitamin K and lots of antioxidants. It's sort of really what I call the holy trinity today of celery, carrots. I'm in for flavor in winter where there is a casse rollers super risotto. But you'll find salary this week somewhere between about two and four dollars a bunch, depending on the size of the bunch.

And what about moving to the Lebanese cucumbers, Well.

And what about moving to the Lebanese cucumbers, Well.

You know, interesting enough, feel like this time last year Lebanese cucumbers were super expensive. They were very short supplied. This year we're seeing lots of cheap cucumbers, you know, quite late in this season, so you can pick up some really good buyers there for about three to five dollars a kilo. But they're now on the flip side. Tomatoes, which were cheap last year, we are seeing record high prices on tomato and that's because of the Cyclone Alfred that we experienced in February. The delays in planting has just created a little void in terms of volume.

Nut's a goodbye and speaking of you know, identity crisis. Am I an egg? Am I a plant?

Or am I both egg plants? Straight out of Queensland. At the moment, I think four to eight dollars is not a bad price for egg plant. You get quite a lot in the quilo. They're good with fire, but are great providing b of course, they're just so versatile. They're like big sponges. It doesn't matter when you use Asian flavors, Mediterranean flavors. Love a good egg plant.

And you can't go past winter without a chestnut's.

And you can't go past winter without a chestnut's.

Not so just a brilliant thing. You know, we talked about air frys earlier. These, you know, you used have to turn the other and on do them over an open fire. You can actually sort of boiled chestnuts, but I think the air frow is definitely the way to go. It's so fast. You put a cross or a chip or a cut into the chestnut so the steam can release on cooking and cook them at about one eighty for around about twenty to thirty minutes, and chestnuts will be so sweet and nutty and delicious, sort of like sweet potato, they're not sort of like a nut. Try them on their own, then try adding them to pumpkin soup and just see how your pumpkin soup goes to a new level.

And cabbages and colieflowers, yes.

Again winter favorites. Looking at prices somewhere between about four and seven dollars, depending on it's cabbage or coulieflour at the moment. But they'll cold. The weather slows down the growth to these veggies, and so the quality we will be there. It'll be really nice and firm and compact, but they're just taking a little bit longer to grow.
