Vegan omelette

Another week and no posts - I should be ashamed of myself but I'm not because I have been cooking a lot, the recipes just aren't ready to share yet. This To Fu Yung is a case in point.



Soft tofu cakes filled with oriental flavourings and vegetables and served over a lime infused crunchy salad. It's a lovely light snack and very tasty but the texture still isn't quite right, so I'm going to have make several more experiments before the method is fit to publish. Pity me.

Dinner for Two

Our 10th year anniversary dinner, 21st June 2007.

The theme was food that could be fed to your lover, tiny nibbles, finger food, dishes to share, nothing too heavy or intimidating.


Love Bites - amuses bouche of marinated olives in lemon and herbs and spicy baked chickpeas.


Nostalgia - on our first 'date' I made bruschetta like these.


Pierce my Heart - tofu skewered, with soft fondant potatoes and tender mange tout.


Pudding to share - Chocolate Apricot Gateau with Green Ginger Ice Cream.

More pictures on Paul's stream and recipes available on request.

Thunderstorm Supper

Posting this evening in the gaps between large storms rolling in across the farm - I have to be quick because it's perfectly possible to explode computers in these circumstances as I have already proved.

So...



New potatoes, picked just before cooking (that is, in the rain and storm) boiled and served with pistou and capers, caramelised plum tomato and tofu in a saté sauce. Yes, this does fall outside my 'no-fusion' rule but if I'd layered it all up and called it Gado Gado no one would have been any the wiser. And I may just do that next time.
