Would you be able to provide the recipe for the Naan breads? They look authentically thin and crispy rather than the thick and fluffy ones I normally see in the UK.
Sure. This is the recipe I used:

https://www.onceuponachef.com/recipes/homemade-naa...

My wife hates aniseed so I used black mustard seeds in mine. I also did a mixture of roughly 60% plain flour with 40% Italian 00 tipo because my normal plain flour is just cheap supermarket stuff. I reckon you'd probably want to use a strong bread flour to get them perfect. I think I rolled them marginally thinner than their recipe stipulates too.

I cooked mine on a very thick cast iron griddle pan until blackened. I had to keep them warm in the oven and they were very slightly too dry for my personal taste when I actually came to plate them, but were basically perfect once they left the pan- crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle.

Is the harissa pork just harissa paste used as a marinade?

Yeah love roasting brocolli. Also mushrooms, they go super concentrated and a little crispy at the edges.

I usually just do a big tray with broccoli, mushrooms, onion, potatoes and a couple of tomatoes. Mix with garlic and a bit of seasoning and leave it alone until the potatoes are cooked.

For all you broccoli roasters: do you parboil beforehand or just chuck it in the oven?
Drizzle with oil or anything?
Might give this a try.

I drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and then apply copius black pepper and sea salt. 210c fan oven for about 20 mins.

That all looks fine to me, in fact the pulled chicken burger and wedges are making me salivate, including the coleslaw. yum

If you're that bothered, you can buy a grater for less than £10! biggrin

Oil, smoked paprika, and whatever other spices you fancy. Cayenne works well, I find. Then toss in the pan until evenly coated

No parboil, just chucked into the oven until blackened and crispy biggrin
