This weekend was a busy one for food and
without the formal recipes. Saturday was
a steak and olive oil/sea salt encrusted baked potato and enough
salad to sink a small island kind of meal.
And no microwaving the potato first, it was a hot oven for an hour
jobby, which always produces the best of crispy skins.
Sunday was scrambled egg day, regular scrambled
egg after watching the other half look through Moroccan Riads and south Spanish
Moorish villas inspired a more north African take on one of our regular Sunday
breakfasts. Hence the addition of
chopped wild garlic and a toot (a half teaspoon apparently) of sweet smoked
paprika. Again, no microwaving, just
cooked gently in saucepan with butter and a little Argon oil.
Sunday dinner was more steak - this time lamb wrapped in streaky bacon with whole wild garlic leaves between the different meats. Laid on a deep baking sheet with a little cider balsamic and orange juice used as basting liquor. The garlic and mint gravy utilised the resulting sweet meaty juices just right.
