I've finally been able to finish this video! Anthony White, my neighbour and friend built the Brick Cooker a few weeks ago, but the rain here has been relentless, and I have been away for my other channel The Last Homely House so finally, yesterday, I was able to go round the garden pick all the vegetables that were ready and make an amazing plate of food! The potatoes are a variety called Pink Fir Apple, the beetroot are that old favourite Bolthardy. I picked broad beans, onion, courgette, lettuce, plum tomato, cucumber, flat leaved parsley, basil, mint, and thyme. The lemon and the garlic were not my own, nor the seasoning, but most of my food was home grown! I have some chilli growing in the polytunnel, so next time I'll use that!
It was so much fun! I just hope the weather continues to be warm so I can cook again and again!
Thank you for watching! If you are interested in the full version of the first time I used the cooker, when I could barely see for wood smoke, then visit Patreon on Friday at 5.00 pm BST. I thought my patrons would enjoy a good chuckle at my expense for that Behind The Scenes honest first attempt!

I post these videos when I have something to say about the garden and when time allows, so, not to a regular schedule. It's a good idea to click the notifications bell when you subscribe so you don't miss these random postings!
Thank you to Owen Jackson for the drone shots!
And thank you for your support here! I hope you enjoy the music too. It is from Epidemic Sound and is called in the order you'll hear it ...
