Food review from Sundays lunch.
Pate, first attempt. Put some mushrooms and walnuts in it and a couple of sprigs of rosemary on top when it went into the oven.... tastes lovely, it certainly took up the rosemary flavour. Maybe a bit course/dry. I might try fattier bacon next time and wizzalating it longer.
Beef bourguignon - got the meat from Smithfields and cooked it in a bottle of red for 3 hours. Added some orange zest which gave it a sweet flavour. Top dried out a bit cause we don't have a good caserole dish (ended up putting baking paper over the top and pressing it down).
Gratin Dauphinoise - probably needed to be cooked a wee bit longer (forgot to put it in when guests arrived). All in all a tasty main - but fark me, its rich. There are some leftovers and I just don't think I'm up to it.
Pudding was an apple and pistachio cake (flourless) with clotted cream. AWESOME, and the highlight of a gluttonous day.
