HOW DOES IT WORK?


Weve managed to compress the same protection as a standard 150ml aerosol pack into a little can half the size. Weve reengineered the spray system, reducing the amount of gas needed to deliver the same level of antiperspirant ingredient with each spray. This allows us to deliver at least the same sweat protection as the 150ml can but in a smaller 75ml can. Our compressed technology has been extensively tested so we can be condent that if you use it just like you use your normal 150ml pack, it will last just as long and work just as well.

WHO GROWS IT HERBS

The great thing about potted herbs is their longevity. If you look after them, they can last three to ve weeks water them little and often and always from the base. Rob Grundy
1
Fresh herbs liven up your cooking and look beautiful in your kitchen. Youll nd a range of fresh potted herbs in store ready to take home and enjoy, including chives, coriander, mint, thyme, basil and parsley. Theyre grown by Lincolnshire Herbs and we were their rst customer back in 1998. Fast-forward 15 years and we now have eight acres of stateof-the-art facilities and grow 13 million herbs each year, says Site Manager Rob Grundy. And last year, we were named Edible and Salad Grower of the Year at the Grower of the Year Awards, which was a great achievement, he says. HERB PRODUCTION The crops are grown all year round in glasshouses, where the temperature and irrigation are computer-controlled. The process from sowing to harvest takes three to six weeks, says Rob. Once germinated, the herbs are placed in a gutter system and slowly moved automatically from one end of the glasshouse to the other. During this growing process, theyre tickled by mechanical rubber strips, which mimic the movement of wind to help stimulate growth and encourage strength. CARING FOR YOUR HERBS Looking after your herb at home is simple, says Rob. Remove the packaging and put it on a saucer on a windowsill. Water it little and often and always from the base. Only snip off what you need. Basil is my favourite, he adds. My wife makes a lovely tomato and mozzarella side salad with it. For more herb ideas, visit getcooking. ASDA.com and lincolnshire-herbs.co.uk. 1 The manual harvesting process in action 2 Basil (pictured here) is the companys bestselling herb, followed by coriander and curly parsley in that order 3 The herbs are distributed within 24 hours of harvest. Lincolnshire Herbs supplies our stores with 5.5 million pots each year 4 Chives growing in the glasshouse 5 The company employs 50 production team members to handle the process from start to nish

Boiling cauliower is quick and easy but steaming locks in more avour. Or why not try it roasted? Break into large even-sized orets and toss in olive oil. Put in a shallow baking dish and roast at 200C/180C Fan/ Gas 6 for 25-30 minutes.

ROSEMARY
Here are some great ideas for this versatile herb. Add sprigs to bottles of olive oil good for adding avour to salad dressings. Use bunches to brush meat with oil for barbecuing or roasting meat. Add chopped leaves to stufngs or sauces to serve with lamb, chicken or pork use sparingly as rosemary sema has a strong avour. vour.

ORANGES
Freshly squeezed orange juice is great for livening up dressings and smoothies, or add segments to salads and desserts. Grated zest is also brilliant in sauces. Oranges will keep for two weeks at room temperature or in the fridge.

Make a well in the centre and add the yolks and oil. Slowly whisk in the milk to make a smooth batter. Chill in the fridge, covered, for 20 minutes. Slice the onions into rings about 1.5cm in diameter. Separate the rings and set aside. Heat the oil in a deep fat fryer to 180C or you can use a large saucepan and ll it one-third with oil. Heat until a small piece of bread dropped in the oil turns golden brown in 60 seconds. Whisk the egg white until it forms stiff peaks and then gently fold it into the batter. Dip the rings into the batter, a few at a time to coat them completely, then carefully fry in the oil in batches, for 3-4 minutes each, turning them over half-way through, until golden brown. Its important to only cook a few at a time, because if you overcrowd the pan, they wont cook properly. Lift out with a slotted spoon and transfer to a plate topped with three sheets of kitchen paper this will soak up any excess fat. Keep warm while you continue to cook the rest of the rings in the same way. Serve with tomato ketchup.

This keeps for up to a month and is delicious with cold meats and cheeses
to coat. Add the bay leaf and thyme. Cover and cook over a very low heat, stirring often, until theyre really soft and falling apart but not coloured. This is called sweating and will take 20-30 minutes. Doing this will make the avour milder and will bring out the natural sweetness of the onions. Add the sugar, balsamic vinegar, red wine and apple juice and cook over a medium heat, uncovered, stirring often, until all the liquid has evaporated. This will take at least an hour. Stir continuously towards the end of the cooking time to make sure the chutney doesnt catch and burn. Half an hour before the chutney is ready, wash a 450g jar and lid in hot soapy water and then rinse and put in the oven for 20 minutes at 140C/ 120C Fan/Gas 1 to sterilise. Or you could wash the jar on the hot cycle in a dishwasher. Put the chutney in the sterilised jar and leave until cold. It will keep in the fridge for up to a month.

Put the unpeeled shallots in a saucepan, cover with cold water and bring to the boil. Cover and simmer for 4 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water until cool enough to handle. Peel the shallots, leaving just enough of the root end to stop them falling apart. Melt the butter in a frying pan, add the shallots and cook over a low heat, stirring gently and turning often, for about 10-15 minutes or until they are tender. Take care not to let the butter burn. Add the vinegar, sugar and thyme and stir. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is syrupy and thickened. Transfer the shallots and juices to the tin and leave to cool slightly for 10 minutes. Roll out the pastry and cut out a 23cm round. Lay it on top of the tin and tuck in the edges.

Onion gravy with sausages & mash


Onion gravy is great with sausages, liver, steaks or chops. The slow cooking releases the natural sugars to give a fabulous rich avour
15g butter 1tbsp sunower oil 4 red onions, halved and nely sliced 200ml white wine 2 sprigs of fresh thyme 350ml chicken stock, made with 1 chicken stock cube 2 level tsp cornour Sausages, mashed potato and green beans, to serve Melt the butter and oil in a pan. Add the onions and stir to coat. Cover and cook over a very low heat, stirring often, until theyre a deep golden colour this will take 30-40 minutes. Dont be tempted to speed this up. Add the wine and thyme and boil fast, uncovered, until the wine is reduced by half. As the wine reduces, the avour will intensify, become richer and all the alcohol will burn off. Pour in the stock and leave to simmer for 5 minutes. Remove the thyme. Mix the cornour with 2tbsp cold water and stir into the onion mixture. Simmer for 2-4 minutes, then serve with sausages, mash and beans. If you want to serve it as part of a vegetarian meal, use vegetable stock instead of chicken stock.

Scones with smoked salmon & soft cheese


These are best made and eaten on the same day so that theyre really fresh. And theyre so easy they take just 15 minutes to make and 12 minutes to bake
225g self-raising our, plus extra for shaping Pinch of salt level tsp mustard powder Good pinch of cayenne 50g butter, in small cubes 75g extra mature Cheddar, grated 2tbsp chopped fresh chives 150ml semi-skimmed milk 150g Asda Lighter Plain Soft Cheese 100g smoked salmon Few sprigs of fresh dill Preheat the oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7. Grease two baking trays. Sift the our, salt, mustard powder and cayenne into a bowl. Rub in the butter. Add the cheese and chives and stir until evenly mixed. Set aside 1tbsp of the milk. Add the rest to the milk, all at once, and mix with a round-bladed knife to make a soft but not sticky dough. Its important to add the milk all at once or you wont get a smooth dough. Flour your hands and gather the mixture together, handling it as little as possible. The less you handle the dough, the lighter the scones will be. Put on a lightly oured surface and pat out to 2cm thick. Flour a 5cm-wide cutter and cut out scones. Place on the trays. Gather the leftover dough, pat out and cut again. Repeat this until all the dough has been used up. There should be enough to make 10. Brush the tops with the leftover milk, bake for 12-15 minutes, then cool on a wire rack. Just before serving, split the scones through the middle and spread the bottom halves with soft cheese. Top with a piece of smoked salmon and a sprig of dill. Put the tops on at an angle to show off the lling.

A tagine is an ideal dish for weekend entertaining because, although it takes around two hours to cook, it doesnt take a lot of time to put together. Weve used lamb neck llet in this recipe because it becomes incredibly tender when slow-cooked and its reasonably priced. Plus, its easy to cut, which makes your job easier!

Jims tips
A tagine can be made in advance and reheated. The avour

improves if its kept in the fridge for a few hours or up to a day, then reheated. If you fancy a change from lamb, you could make an equally delicious chicken or pork tagine by replacing the lamb in this recipe with skinless chicken thighs or pork steaks. You can use an authentic tagine instead of a casserole dish its conical lid provides plenty of room for steam to form, keeping the lamb and other food moist while they cook. But you dont have to use one to create this beautiful dish.

Shortcrust pastry is the workhorse of the pastry world. Once you know how to make it, youre on your way to pies, tarts and pasties and, of course, quiche. The classic quiche Lorraine comes from France serve it cold if thats more convenient, but for me, nothing beats warm quiche.

1
Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Sift the our and a pinch of salt into a large bowl. Cut the butter and lard into small cubes and add to the our. Then, using your ngertips and thumb, lift and rub the fat into the our until it resembles breadcrumbs. Mix the egg yolk with 4tbsp cold water and add to the mixture. Mix until it forms clumps, adding a little more water if necessary. Gather together, wrap in clinglm and chill for 15 minutes.

2
Lightly dust a work surface and rolling pin with our. Roll out the pastry using short, sharp, light strokes to make a round about 29cm across. Gently lift the pastry onto the rolling pin, to help move it, and then place it over a 23cm an tin. Carefully ease it in, using your ngers to make sure it goes right into the edge. Trim the top edges to about 4mm above the tin. Prick the base with a fork and chill for 15 minutes until the pastry is rm.

For the pastry


200g plain our, plus extra for rolling out 75g butter, chilled 25g lard or white vegetable fat, at room temperature 1 egg yolk

For the quiche Lorraine filling


250g Asda Extra Special Gammon Steak, trimmed of fat and cut into small cubes 1tsp sunower oil 4 spring onions, trimmed and sliced 75g Gruyre, grated 3 large free range eggs 300ml single cream

3
Lay a piece of foil in the pastry case, shiny side down, and weigh it down with raw rice. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove the foil and rice and bake for another 5 minutes to cook the base. Reduce the oven temperature to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4. Cook the gammon in a dry frying pan, over a medium heat, for about 4 minutes or until its just cooked. Drain off any juices that come out. Add the oil and spring onions and cook for another 2 minutes.

4
Sprinkle about a quarter of the cheese in the base of the an case, then scatter the gammon and spring onions on top. Lightly beat the eggs and single cream together and season with pepper. Pour into the an case and sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the lling is just set.

8 Pieces Chicken Drumsticks or Thighs (skin on, bone in) 1 Bisto Chicken Stock Melt 1 Medium Onion (peeled and roughly chopped) 1 Red Pepper (seeded and roughly chopped) 3 tbsp Olive Oil 2 cloves Garlic (peeled and chopped) 2 tsp Ground Cumin tsp Ground Cinnamon 1 tsp Ground Paprika 2 tbsp Fresh Coriander 1 Fresh Lime 2 tbsp Tomato Paste 600g (cooked weight) Cous Cous

Add to the bowl with the spices. 2 Add the rest of the ingredients (excluding the stock melt) and mix so that all the chicken and vegetables are well coated. If time allows, leave to marinade for about an hour. 3 Place into a baking tray big enough to spread everything out evenly and into a preheated oven at 180C (160 fan). Roast for 10 minutes, remove, and add the stock melt to the tray. As it melts, stir it into the chicken and vegetables. Return to the oven and roast for another 20 25 minutes until the chicken is nicely browned, cooked through and piping hot. 4 Cook cous cous following the pack instructions, replacing water with vegetable stock and add chopped coriander.

HOMES GARDENING

Pot t ing g uide


Its sow easy! Whether youre a seasoned gardener, a novice or want to get your kids interested, growing your own owers and vegetables from seed is the easiest and cheapest ways to get masses of plants. Sowing seeds indoors now will give you a head start and youll have strong, healthy plants to transplant out once the weather improves.

How to sow seeds


Fill seed trays or small pots with multipurpose compost break up any lumps with your ngers or use a garden sieve if you have one. Gently rm the soil with your hand or use a tamping tool. Sprinkle your seeds over the compost thinly, or follow pack instructions. Cover them with a ne layer of compost. Poke in labels with the plants names and the planting date. Water gently.

SOW IN MARCH
Vegetables lettuce/
salad leaves (all varieties), tomatoes, chillies, aubergines, leeks, brassicas (purple sprouting broccoli, kale, calabrese), green beans, peas, herbs

3 4 5

Place in a propagator, a clear plastic bag or cover with a piece of glass. Place on a warm window sill. Remove the cover once the seeds have germinated. When the seedlings are big enough to handle, transplant them into individual pots. Once it gets warmer, gradually acclimatise them before planting outside.

Flowers (half-hardy
annuals) antirrhinums, sweet peas, sunowers, rudbeckia, cosmos, delphiniums

WHAT YOULL NEED TO GROW YOUR PLANTS FROM SEED Clean pots or seed trays; fresh multipurpose compost; plastic labels; propagators (or clear plastic bags/pieces of glass); seeds; and a little patience!

Asthma answers
Got a question about your asthma medication? Our trained pharmacists at your local Asda Pharmacy can help with any concerns
Is your asthma under control? According to charity Asthma UK, 75 per cent of hospital admissions relating to asthma could be avoided if asthmatics were in better control of their condition. Knowing what medicines to take and when is crucial, so why not make an appointment with our pharmacists to discuss your medication, and check youre using your inhaler properly*? And if you arent able to get to your own doctor, visit your Asda pharmacist for a consultation and you may be able to buy your inhaler without a prescription**. Also, dont forget to use our new inhaler recycling scheme to dispose of your old one for free. There are 253 Asda in-store pharmacies in the UK, all with private consultation rooms. Theyre all open seven days a week until late, including bank holidays, so you can pop in when it suits you.

BEING IN CONTROL
WORDS: MARILYN WRIGHT. PHOTOGRAPH: GETTY IMAGES

Steps to managing asthma; Use your preventer inhaler regularly, as prescribed. Eat a healthy diet with plenty of fresh fruit and veg. Drink lots of water to avoid becoming dehydrated. Visit asthma.org.uk for more help and information.

Take control of your asthma with the help of Asda Pharmacy

TERMS & CONDITIONS: *INHALER USAGE CHECK WILL ONLY BE OFFERED THROUGH CONSULTATION WITH THE PHARMACIST.

HOME FACIAL

Remove any impurities with a cream cleanser. Tip Massage the cleanser using upward and circular motions to boost circulation. Wipe off with a damp annel.

Exfoliate with a face scrub to remove any dead skin cells. We love using Olay Smoothing Face Scrub, 2 (150ml). Tip Wipe off the face scrub with a hot annel to open your pores.

Apply a facemask. Leave on for two minutes to let it seep in. The Montagne Jeunesse range (from 75p until 4 April) is great for all skin types. Tip Cream or gel masks are best for dry skin as theyre good for hydration. For oily skin, try clay-based formulas, which soak up excess oil.

Moisturise. Use a cream with SPF during the day to protect against UVA rays and a nourishing, rich cream at night. Try Asda Skin System SPF 15 Day Cream & Night Cream, 2 (2 x 25ml).

Apply a body lotion as soon as you step out of the bath. E45 Intense Recovery Lotion, 6 (400ml) is great for dry skin. Tip Do this while your skin is stilll damp to lock in moisture.

Take off nail varnish with a remover. Asda Skin System Nail Varnish Remover, 1 has added conditioner for healthy nails.

File each nail to the same length. Always le in one direction, working from the sides to the centre.

Tidy up cuticles for a groomed look. Tip An easy way to do this is apply a drop of hair conditioner to the corner of a annel and gently push the cuticles back.

PEDICURE

Rub olive oil onto the nails and cuticles to keep them hydrated.

Soak feet in warm water for a minute. Exfoliate with a foot scrub, then use a foot le to buff away hard skin. The N-Spa Complete Foot Care File, 1.60 works wonders. Moisturise with a rich foot cream to make them smooth. Scholl Dry Skin Instant Recovery Cream, 5.99 (60g).

Apply a base coat of nail polish, then a quick drying varnish such as Rimmel 60 Seconds Nail Polish, 3.68 (8ml). Finally, paint on a top coat to prevent the varnish from chipping and help it last longer.

Moisturise with plenty of nourishing hand cream. One of our favourites is Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Fast Absorbing Hand Cream, 4 (75ml).
