I'm not normally a big fan of dumplings. Possibly because I look a little bit like one and possibly because I'm always a bit wary of any kind of food that comes with a 'wrapping' or sauce. Surely, if the ingredients are good, there's no need to coat them in pastry, dough, batter, bread crumbs or thick syrupy, creamy, unctuous sauce?
So I was surprised to find myself thinking how delicious the dumplings, that Filiz just showed me, look.
Peas? I love peas. Cheese? I love cheese. Lemon. Salt. Olive oil. It looks so simple and good. I am now a little bit disappointed that I'm leaving in the morning and won't be able to cook them for a fortnight. But it's something to look forward to when I get back home.
I looked for a photo of some peas to go with this post and could only find this picture of a strange plant I found when I went to Mt Vernon in Virginia. I'm not sure if these are actually peas or whether they are something poisonous. In any case, they look interesting.
