Little rain today, giving the plants a boost, julie found a horse shoe while forking over a bed. There was luck in the rain today. #farmtofork #tasteofcavan #virginaparklodge
Home grown carrots, butter, star anise. When you have beautiful produce, you don’t need much else. #organicfarming

Sprouts with crispy bacon and beautiful garlicky cream will lure in the most stubborn of sprouts haters.
Cook the Brussels sprouts in a saucepan of boiling salted water for 8-10 minutes. Drain and refresh in a bowl of ice and water. Drain again when the sprouts have cooled.
Add the bacon lardons to a non-stick frying pan, and fry over a medium heat until crisp.
Add the cream and crushed garlic to a small pan and bring to the boil.
Stir the sprouts into the crisp bacon; then stir in the hot cream.
Season with salt and pepper and serve straightaway.

We make our ice cream from scratch for all of our lunches, weddings and events. We have a gelato machine in our kitchen specifically for this purpose. This one is a fragrant and delicious meadowsweet ice-cream using meadowsweet harvested from around the estate.
