Today at work I came across a weird veg/fruit Iv'e never seen in my life before & nobody else in the building knows what it is either.
Many fruits/vegs pass through my hands everyday to numerous to mention but this 1 beats me.
Its name PATTY PAN its dark green in colour, small with a scallop shape & edges, its pretty looking, but does anybody know if its fruit or veg :idea: & what do you eat along with it

It's a kind of squash, that was all I knew
There's a bit more here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattypan_squash or http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/glossary/p.shtml?patty_pan

Thanks Fran...now I know what I'm handling, I guess there is a better cook than me out there on a rig somewhere in the Nth sea who knows what he is doing

Nah they are just a convenient shape to throw at the seagulls

Ohhhh! Patty Pan! I lurve those!!!

Treat them like you would a pumpkin or a butternut squash - delish!!

i googled it and found out that you can fry it or use to stuff i suppose like mashey it tastes like a nutty flavour here is the link if you like to check it out http://www.foodsubs.com/Squashsum.html on this site it gives you a theasaurus of foods unknown :):):):)
