Toms straight off the plant, especially if you grow your own are in a league of their own for sure. I was lucky growing up because my parents had a green house and grew Toms and cucumbers.

boydeste Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Chicken with pepper and garlic deep fried. Found this version a bit dry, but the little pot of chilli oil saved the day. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved being in the garden with my dad tending the vegetables as a kid. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy to pick, easy to shuck and bloody delicious!! Peas never made it into the kitchen though .. we were always out nicking them and eating them raw..maggots and all!! Fever tomorrow I think and restock my freezer with frozen ones !! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best ones are the red curry ones which are left in the fridge overnight to "congeal" then sold open with cream on top The reason I remember it (and also why I sometimes get it wrong) is because it is a spoonerism of Mau Hok which is colloquial for Matayom 6 ..6th grade at school...and yes I used to embarrass my daughter at school..
