First attempt approved by Aaron and Jamie – I had never had it before so well pleased. Might be some available on request tomorrow morning at Sandford Stores.

Trying out new foods.

Doodhi recipe

This has been recommended by Aaron – Recipe

The recipe is variable – great! Jamie Oliver

Firstly I love the idea of nibbles. So a book of tapas and these are the ones I will make.

lamb with lemon, garlic prawns, spicy moorish kebabs, meat balls in tomato sauce, Catalan chick pea salad, chicken with garlic, potatoes in tomato sauce, stuffed mushrooms and peppers, aubergine cheese fritters, spinach, pine nuts and raisins.

Roasted almonds with paprika, picos breadsticks, anchovy stuffed eggs, chorizo and tomato loaf, fennel and citrus pork belly, chorizo in red wine, romensco chicken wings, paprika chicken wings and garlic, moorish skewers, ham croquettes, spinach, tomato and egg tarts, ricotta and red onion tortilla, garlic potatoes, potatoes with spicy tomato sauce.

I think I am drooling at the moment.

Now looking up recipes for okra – roasting seems a good choice?

A friend has shopped for me at a market in London – no instructions so I am fairly ignorant of what to expect other than I have been told Cassava or yucca. Recipes here or African bean cassava. But this Caribbean one looks so edible!

Made the cake – now for mango chutney and another variation. and one from Jamie Oliver

And I think some madeleines with clementine zest and lemon?

Oh and I think some apple with cinnamon and cloves and lemon and zest and maybe almonds – I can see this getting to be more of a cookie?

I have some second hand cook books coming today – so maybe wait and see what inspiration comes?
