Iron Chef WAYCT - What Are You Cooking Today

[Giles]

Butternut Squash - nice and baked

Assembling

It is at this point I realise I need white sauce for the top too - and I've already used it all - insert "tosser emoji"

So there will be an interlude, whilst I go to the supermarket to get Crème fraîche

[Giles]

[Chap]

For a Béchamel you only need butter, flour and milk, some salt and nutmeg… no Crème fraîche needed 

[Giles]

I'm cheating…..

But that does remind me, I've used all the nutmeg that I bought last time I was in Oman.  I'm scheduled to be back there in April (effing Covid permitting)......

[Giles]

Ready for the oven, which won't happen for a few hours.  Time to kick back and watch the Portuguese Grand Prix qually…..

Found some mushrooms in the woods this morning…

I’m mentally eating the mushroom risotto with char as a starter and the lasagne for a main. For my breakfast.

@Giles:

I traded some flour with @Chap  for some Austrian goodies.

I think I won 

Definitely a winner was this deal… wonderful book

@Chap that looks insane!

Experimented a bit last night and it turned out really well. Vegan green curry with butternut squash, green beans, and tofu:

[Chap]

Cheers @popvulture your green curry looks yummy… nice Le Creuset!

[popvulture]

Thank you! I have definitely gotten my money's worth out of that thing. Built like a tank.

Comfort food…...
