Brrrrr.. its Winter. Let’s make a snowman & eat big bowls of stews!
What with the snow causing havoc these last weeks its been all about the comfort food…and getting home or moving the car.. From stews, soups, wholesome and hearty flavours with perhaps a little spice in there to warm up the cold nights.
Even if I have been out and about there’s nothing a bowl of steaming ramen won’t sort out, which is what’s been making it ways into my stomach these last few weeks. With a wealth of inspiration in flavours from cooking up a Ottolenghi Family Feast, digging into Tonkotsu at Bone Daddies or making a humble pea and mint soup, these wintry feasts are perfect for this time of the year.
Mauritian Fish Curry-Cooked at home with my lovely mother, a family recipe of thick pieces of fish in a spiced Mauritian mix of flavours, with okra. Eaten with fresh puri’s its all you need on a cold day to spice it up!
Rum Baba’s- A bit like doughnuts, soaked in a naughty rum-liquered and spiced sauce with cinnamon, orange zest, cardamom and brown sugar. Perfect supperclub dessert coming up with my homemade ice creams & exotic sorbet.
