hunter gatherer

well more of a gatherer really. found a stream full of wild watercress at the weekend in the Yorkshire dales, so collected a big fat bunch and brought it home.
looked a little sad after it had been in the car over night (bit like that bag in your fridge I expect) so instead of using it as a salad I simply blended it with some good quality salty butter and let it melt gently over my steak.
yumyum
try blending it with lemon juice, olive oil and garlic for an instant fresh pesto, or chop finely & stir with salmon and mayo for a perfect sandwich, or simply cook it up with a peeled potato, 1/2  an onion and vegetable stock cube and blend for an out of this workd watercress soup - add a little anchovy to this for an extra bite.
