Cut the florettes off of the broccili (the little minni trees), make sure they are about a mouthfull each.
Chop the carrots up preferably in sticks.

Flour, water, frying pan – this is what my friend uses to cook gipaties. These are like an unleven bread you eat with curries and stuff.
He sprinkeled flour on the work surface mixed flour and water into a stiff dough and then stretched it out with his fingers – I can’t remember if he then rolled it or not, it was very quick! He then dry fried it in the frying pan.

My neighbour Maureen gave me this recipe along with a tub of rosehips from her garden – I then went and got alot more rosehips from my garden to make it worth while putting the preserving pan on – but then I have a huge pan!
She also provided about three different types of apple from her garden for me as well!
Her recipe goes:
*1 lb rosehips
*1 lb green cooking apples
*1/2 pt of water
*3/4 lb sugar per 1lb of pulp
Wash and cut tips off the rosehips (she’d already done this on the ones she gave me!)
Cut up apples
Simmer until tender
Press through a sieve – this is the nasty hard work bit
Put pulp in pan with sugar
Simmer till thick – this bit takes suprisingly little time
