Waitrose Chinese Five spice mix ( other brands available) plus black pepper and some butter. The 5 spice mix is star anise, cassia, fennel, cloves and ginger.

Thank you. I'll definitely try that. Savoy cabbage, I presume?

It's sweetheart cabbage - also called pointed cabbage
Edit did also use some water ( 2 spoons) in there to help soften it in early stages of cooking.

@DJC3 pleased that you are feeling more human today.
As it was a wet and blustery day today I decided to bake - tried out the new Panda Pantry Parkin very appropriate for an autumnal day.

Parkin – Sticky, Spiced, and Low-Carb

A traditional Yorkshire treat reimagined with Panda Flour®. Rich with ginger spice and fibre, this parkin has a beautifully sticky texture without the sugar rush. Enjoy a square with a cup of tea for the perfect autumn bake.

It had a few different fiddly processes but well worth it - tastes perfect

Breakfast kefir then a few garden tomatoes ( a few left slowly ripening indoors from green to red!) Fried in olive oil served on hm LC toast
Lunch open ham sandwich on hm LC bread
Dinner salmon served with green beans and peas and mayonnaise

Followed by a piece of my hm LC sticky parkin.

Breakfast: my usual low carb coconut ‘porridge’ with strawberries washed down with a black coffee.
Late morning: black coffee and a carb killa bar.
Skipped lunch.
Mid afternoon: black coffee and another carb killa bar.
Dinner: low carb cheese, tomato and mushroom pizza with coleslaw.

That Parkin looks so good! Did you add the optional dates?
