I wasn't feeling too good this weekend. Tummy ache... When I'm like that there isn't much I can do and there is no point for me going out and making plans.
I spent Saturday reading "The Tin Drum" in bed then I watched "La Vie en Rose". Sunday (today) I was feeling slightly better and decided to get up and cook a nice breakfast with scrambled eggs and salmon. Now I am also a mochaccino master. The milk frother I got for Christmas works a treat!
In the afternoon I watched an old series from 1995 entitled "Full Circle" with Michael Palin. Very interesting to see how much the world has changed in little over 10 years. Around 4pm I decided to bake scones and use my new heart-shaped cutter. They came out really nice and pretty. I had them with Cornish clotted cream and Bonne Maman Wild Strawberry jam.
For dinner I prepared my absolute favourite: lentils and polenta. This is really traditional of the area I come from and I always use my granny's recipe, which is the best. I could eat this dish every day. It isn't anything refined, but it is very healthy and I love it.
Pancetta and Mature Cheddar Scone... delicious and ideal accompainment to soups. Very easy and fast to bake. I'll post the recipe soon.
Chicken Breast wrapped in Bacon, stuffed with Edam and oven baked. The shallots got a bit burnt, but it was very tasty. I served it with celeriac stewed in milk :)
Classic Apple Pie...
I love it hot with pouring cream...
Miso Marinated Salmon, Egg Fried Brown Rice and Runner Beans... my favourite!
