The Burdock Plant and it's large edible root

The giant leaves Burdock plant. It had a large starchy edible root

Over the summer the Burdock plant and it's giant leaves can be found. It has a giant edible root.

This can either be roasted or peeked and sautéed.

In this case I sautéed slices of the root in butter garlic and a small amour of curry paste.

This is a fantastic foraging treat.

The root is very deep and will require a spade to get the whole thing out.
