Swiss chard

8''x8'', oil on gessoboard - SOLD

I picked this yesterday morning, painted it and then made a Swiss tart using it and some gruyere cheese – delicious.  This was a recipe from a favourite chef, Allegra McEvedy’s Colour Cookbook.  It’s really easy to grow and I have it outside the kitchen in old crates so I can just pick it easily and bung it in a salad – wonderful.  It’s also great mixed with cream or goat’s cheese and chilli sauce, stuffed into chicken breasts which, hmmm………..might be on the menu ce soir.
