EACH Saturday throughout October, Byrne’s wine mer­ chants are offering a free tasting session where you will find numerous different bodegas rep­ resented. The event will start with their


house Rioja. On October 7th the wines to


taste will be from Bodega Arte- sa. Dramatic changes have taken place over the last decade within the world of Spanish wine. Vineyard management and


cellar practices have been trans­ formed and many of the old ways have been replaced with a fresh new openness, energy and dynamism at all levels. At Artesa all the right ingredi­


ents have come together with a small group of like-minded peo­ ple. It is a large family owned estate with high altitude vine-


with .wine.writer i . Andrew; Byrrie; ,

A COMEDIC farce where anything that could go wrong does go wrong is the latest production from a talented band of local players.


“Don’t Dress for Dinner” is the title of


the comedy, to be staged by the St Mary’s Parish Church Amateur Operatic and Dramatic Society from Wednesday, Octo­ ber 11th to Saturday the 14th. The action takes place in the living


room of a French country house, where Bernard waits to entertain his chic Parisian mistress, Suzy, for the weekend. He has arranged a cordon bleu cook, invited his friend Robert as an alibi and is


in the process of packing his wife off to her mother’s, but Bernard’s best laid plans are about to fall apart in spectacular and hilarious fashion. Directed by Barbara Simpson, Marc


Camoletti’s play is sure to have audiences rolling in the aisles. It will be staged night­ ly at 7-30 p.m. at the St Mary’s Centre, in Church Street, Clitheroe, and tickets are available from the centre (Tel: 01200 427162) or on the door. Our picture shows cast members, front

Delights of the Riojas 0.1.1™. EGG AND PEAS with Natalie Cox


A COLLEAGUE at work, N a ta lie Cox, returned from her holidays in Menorca with this recipe to share with readers. Natalie, her husband, Chris, their two children, Lois and Aaron, pictured, together with Natalie’s par­ ents stayed in a villa in Es Castell, near to cap­


ital Mahon. They all enjoyed eating out as well as making


the occasional meals in the ■villa. Among all the dishes in Menorcan cuisine,


pride of place goes to shellfish and fresh fish. Because it is an island, Menorca lives in perma­ nent contact with the sea, allowing it to enjoy a


large variety of seafoods. The “Caldereta” (stew) of lobster is


undoubtedly one of the most appreciated dish­ es. Not far behind are three recipes, character­ istic of the island, which can be found in many restaurants - stuffed squid, “perol” of baked cuttlefish and baked fish with potatoes. Typical meat dishes are stews of beef, pork,


lamb or rabbit. A large variety of sausages are produced here too. . Other products typical of the island are


“Mahon-Menorca” cheese, maid mainly from cows’ milk and bearing its own denominacion controlee, and gin, which is made in a still, a legacy of the British occupation of Menorca. , This recipe has been taken from the book


“La Cuina de Menorca’’ and made by Ana Tor- rontegui, and Natalie found it to be the ideal lunchtime meal for the children as well as adults, served with the local crusty bread.


Ingredients (Serves four)


• 4 eggs, • SOOgms green peas


• ® 4 decilitres stock or water


® 2 tomatoes ® 1 green pepper • 2 onions ® 4 cloves garlic ® olive oil ® sprig parsley * 1 tbsp sugar 9 salt


?#■ Method 1. Boil the eggs in water for 10 minutes. Set


to one side. 2. Peel and chop the onions, garlic and toma­


toes. Place in a pan with the oil and lightly fry for 10 minutes. 3. Wash, dry and chop the parsley. 4. Add the stock to the fried ingredients and


cook for 10 minutes. Add the peas and cook for a further 10 minutes. 5. Shell the eggs, cut them in quarters. 6. Sprinkle the parsley oyer the peas, add salt and serve with the quartered eggs on top.
