Is it a plane, is it a potato, no – it’s a mouse

In an effort to broaden Jemima’s rather simplistic palate and encourage her to try a wider range of foods, I’ve started to ask her to pick a dish once a week from her cookbook that we can cook together.

I’ve been trying to get her to eat baked potatoes for a year now, but she just refuses. Turn it into a mouse however and hey presto, she loved it.

Here’s what our potato mouse looked like. Really simple but note to self – put under the broiler BEFORE you add the whiskers!  Chives don’t like extreme heat.
