Lately I’ve been in a little bit of a “let’s-be-gourmet” kind of mood. But it’s important when trying to be something to keep it rustic. You don’t want people to know you tried too hard. You want to come across casually good at cooking.
Like “[sigh and look disinterested] yeh, I just whipped up this three layered chocolate marquise with a crusted sugar top, felt like something sweet after my <something French> dinner.”
So of course I went straight to the absolute master of rustic-meets-gourmet cooking – Jamie Oliver.
He helped guide me. But, like all organised religion, it’s important not to have blind faith and stick 100% to the book. You need interpretation.
So below are pictures of the things I made recently:
1. Parmesan, red onion, mushroom quiche I made (felt like a quickie ;-P), I even made the base from scratch. Huge hit on the Sabbath table.
2. Thai rice paper rolls (not their not filled with Thai people, that would be racist, or sexist, or murder, or cannibalism, or some shit)
3. <stolen image> lentil patties
I might post the recipes up soon, if you ask for them in the ‘comment’ section below.
They are Me original recipes.
