      More plum jam, butter chicken and Tarka dhal (and Beef Madras and potatoes with red chillis off-camera)…..

          Well done @Giles  The Plum jam must taste good. I still have some of the Blueberry left here. 20 pint jars. 🙂 🙂

            Hey @twin - we'll save you a jar of the plum jam, it's very good!

            Giles has been excelling himself in the kitchen recently, I try to help out a bit but usually just get left with the clearing up (wiping spots of jam off the unit doors and spots of curry off the work surfaces)  😃

                  Wanted to share a sauce recipe that we've come to call "crack sauce" because it is so delicious.

                  It's veganaise (or mayonnaise), dijon mustard, fresh dill, lemon juice, capers and caper pickling liquid, olive oil, and black pepper emulsified in a blender. I made this originally as a marinade and sauce for salmon, and then a binder for a salmon salad made of leftovers, but it makes a great dressing for salmon salad as well as for steak salad, or just a sauce to throw on your steaks, asparagus, or whatever else.

                  Think it, be it.

                        Doing a joint tapas thing with some friends this evening… my contribution:

                        Classic tortilla

                        Chorizo, chickpea and grilled pepper salad

                        Olive swirls

                                  Thanks fellas. I was very pleased with them both.

                                  The chorizo thing is super easy. It works because the sausage is so damn tasty that it creates its own sauce. I chose a chorizo that was heavy on the cayenne pepper for that reason. The original recipe called coriander but I subbed it out for parsley. I love coriander but it pretty omnipresent in recipes these days and the taste can dominate. The parsley worked really well.

                                  The tortilla was easy too but time consuming. I made a fresh tomato dressing to go on top which was ace.

                                  @Giles , is that a practice run for next Saturday?

                                          "Teppanyaki" at home! Tried to go paleo with it as possible. Friend-grown zucchini, bell pepper, carrot, white onion, quinoa fried "rice," and the only appearance of soy was in the Makoto ginger dressing (a.k.a. "crack") I used as a dip for the sirloin. Didn't have quite enough bandwidth in the kitchen to cook the steak on the "hot plate" (sort of a wok-like bowl), hence the grill marks, and opted to sautee the veggies in a tamari-based yakiniku sauce I made.

                                          Think it, be it.
