- I've been stewing over this for a while.I have some more path to adjust on the plot and that is definitely on my agenda today. I also have a plan to move some Purple Sprouting Broccoli plants so that I cam make progress with my plans to give up some of my allotment space. First things first though , I need to gather the ingredients for one of my favourite seasonal meals which is corned beef stew. I show you the basic ingredients and also suggest a few amendments that can be made with this simple stew. If anyone is interested all you have to do is chop all the ingredients plus an onion into a size that suits you and boil everything together until soft.The water you boils the vegetables in makes up the liquid in the stew so don't pour it away.Once everything is soft and to your taste just cube the corned beef from one can and simmer for another ten minutes,then season with salt pepper and herbs to taste…..Hey presto ....corned beef stew.
UK Allotments are the ideal place to learn how to grow fruit and vegetables. My allotment is a no dig allotment and I share how to grow vegetables and how to prepare a no dig garden. If you are growing in a backyard garden or homestead and you want some tips on how to grow vegetables I hope my channel has something to offer. Allotment ideas are always worth sharing and I am happy to share my gardening ideas and failures so that we can all learn to grow vegetables together. I also learn on the allotment nearly every time I am there and learning how to grow in a Polytunnel or greenhouse can be a fun an exciting experience too. If you are one of the many allotment beginners or thousands of people growing in your garden for the first time then join me growing on Allotments For Fun and food and get some allotment ideas

Thanks Daisey , its a great time of year…take care Malc
ThAt orange pumpkin color is gorgeous!
It was so vibrant Rebecca
Very productive gardens and I must say 10/10 including your house keeping honestly some gardener's struggle to produce quality food because of crap piles everywhere just my opinion I believe cleanliness is just as important as sowing or even transplanting pruning ex. Great job love your work .

Thanks you for your kind words , I too like a tidy garden……take care Malc
Hi Malcolm I watch the video on Saturday evening I was very surprised to see it at that time but I realize it wasn't excepting any comments think it came earlier than it should, I enjoy seeing you reaping what you sow very nice I'm not getting any tomatoes at all I'm going to give them another month if nothing I would pull all up, good times
It was a blunder on my part, I often have to schedule more than one video if I am going to be busy and that's when the challenges start lol...take care Malc
Nice harvest!
Thanks Tamsin…take care Malc
Lovely produce there, make a great stew with that, your have plenty of broccoli, those caterpillars never give up do they even with a net up haha
Hi Mark, they find a way in somehow …..take care Malc
@@MalcolmKingswell they always do lol
Leave the sprouting brocolli as mine were stripped totally last year just skeletons left I left them and they totally recovered and I had a lovely crop of purple sprouts.
Thanks Mandy ….will do…..Malc
I know I'm chiming in much too late, but it's sad to see you tossing out the leeks with seed stalks. The seed stalks are delicious! Personally I like them better than garlic scapes.
Ill have to try them….take care Malc
Stew season is officially here Malcolm 😛
You said it Graham…..Malc
The season seems to be changing very rapidly this year, already cooking stews! The produce looks lovely, I hope you and Mrs K had a feast!
Yes, thank you issy the feast was awesome!
I always freeze my romas fresh wen I want a couple in a casserole or stew I just take them out pour over boiling water straight away and skin comes off immediately and then I pop them whole into the stew
Sounds perfect Mandy….Malc
Hi Malcolm, I'm really interested when you put those Cavalo Nero in? Everything is looking great!!
Hi Amanda Jayne……I put those in about May from memory….take care Malc
@@MalcolmKingswellah right, thank you. An amazing long term crop then
Hi Malcolm have you manured the parsnip ground. If you have that would be why your parsnips are forking they don't like manure. Same with carrots.
Great video again well done
I put my compost on it Gaynor which is probably just as bad…..Malc
Lovely looking veg and those carrots are perfect! How will you harden off and store your pumpkins? Mine are still mostly green...can I harvest them as the plants are looking quite spent now and ripen them off the plant? I really enjoy watching your videos and learn so much, thanks Malcolm
Hi Simon, you can lay them out on the plot for a few weeks to finish ripening, just avoid the frost, them bring them in to a cool dry place.....hope that helps Malc
👨🌾 💪👨🍳🥩🧅🥕🥦🥔🍅=🍲 bon appetit!! 🍽🍷
Thanks Emm……Malc
Don’t forget onions they most important in stew
You are right Mandy I added them in the description… take care Malc
The stew sounds yummy my sort of comfort food. The paths will look great when they are finished and i agree less workxx
Thanks Penny, the stew was sooo tasty….take care Malc
Good-day Malc!👋 Beautiful produce! Y'all are having a lovely banner year in the garden.👍
You are going to have a ton of purple sprouting broccoli.😋
I don't like the cold so I put up kale in the freezer for the winter...to add to stew, soups, casseroles, quiche, etc.
I also put up chard.🙂
Thanks for the tour of your pumpkins...they are looking yummy! I'm with y'all on the pumpkin pie.😄
Continued good time!👍
Might try that Valorie thanks……Malc
i think you should sow your parsnips direct next year Malc x
I might give that a try …….👍
Hello Malc, I really enjoy autumn and winter too and you can’t beat stew made from home grown veg…. Good times indeed.
Absolutely Anne it just tastes soooo good....Malc
What a feast of veg, that stew is going to taste wonderful. I am not a fan of corned beef so it would have been some nice chicken thighs or shin of beef slow cooked with those beautiful veggie. I am inspired to grow swede next year now 😊 Have a good week.
Swede are a great crop Dawn……give them a go ……take care Malc
Great update Malc , cheers much appreciated, keep up the good work
Will do Jim….take care Malc
I have two outdoor Black Russian tomato plants a lot of tomatoes on them that are green, should i take them off the plant now as it is getting colder? thank you
I think I would Mike , just in case you loose them to the cold….Malc
Recipe please !!!!!!!😁😁😁
In the description Bob…Take care Malc
have you thought about using Bacillus thuringiensis on your plants to kill off bugs ?
I have Rebecca but its sooo expensive …..take care Malc
Are parsnips like carrots in that if the soil/compost is too rich, that is what can cause distorted roots
Great video as usual
I think so Carol, I probably need to use some old ground…..Malc
Your a day early !
Lol its all a mystery to me……Malc
What do you mean giving up part of your plot?
He talked about in the previous episode. He’s downsizing to make things more manageable.
I am downsizing my plot as its just to big for the time I have…..take care Malc
Sorry 😬not very good on comps
