Where can you get cumin from? And what is dill (in Spanish)?
Anyone know - mummy wants to make us something special to eat.

We pick our dill in arona, it grows wild there and there's loads of it. Makes me feel quite rustic

Here are some ways of asking for etc

Quisiera (Key Sierra) - I would like
Quiero (Key Aero) - I want
Necesito (Nessessito) - I Need
Hay? (I) - Are there any
Is there Any
Do you have any
Cuanto cuesta (Kwantoe Kwesta) - How much does it cost
Cuanto Cuestan (Kwantoe Kwestan) - How much do they cost

Quisiera 2 kilos de tomates - I would like 2 kilos of tomatoes
Quiero que ir me a casa - I want to go home
Necesito 2 kilos de tomates - I need 2 kilos of tomatoes
¿Hay Tomates? - Are there any tomatoes/ Do you have tomatoes
Si Hay Tomates! - Yes there are tomatoes / we have tomatoes
Cuanto Cuestan los Tomates - How much do the tomatoes cost
Cuanto Cuesta un Tomate - How much does a tomatoe cost

Searched the thread and can't see an answer, anyone know what Burro is? Clue - it's a fish not a donkey!

Apparently it's called a Grunt Fish in English. Bio name is Pomadasys croco.

What do you say if you want your meat minced?

carne molida or carne picada ... or simply por la maquina

Don't the locals say that when they want the meat finely minced?

ie passed twice through the mincer?

Note: @ Canarybird It might be called "grunt fish" but it's really tasty, will definitely buy it again. Would be nice to put a recognised English name to it though.....But, maybe it doesn't exist in the UK fish market??
