Recent culinary adventures

A few of the tasty (for the most part) things I have made in my new kitchen!

I made a few goodies for Sam's first visit: the first is a simple apple pie made with leftover pastry crust- unfortunately the pastry was salted so that probably wasn't the best of ideas, but it is hard to go wrong with apple pie anyway so I won't deem it a disaster based on that...



 
And here is a below average version of my fruity zesty sponge. I used tinned peaches instead of fresh fruit, which resulted in less flavour and more gooeyness....it did taste better the day after but unfortunately it was mostly gone by that point. I guess I was being a little picky!

Breaded turkey and a funky omelette on the side...

Spinach, sweet potatoe, onion, chorizo and a tiny weeny bit of feta or goat's cheese...heaven.


Even better in a wrap!

Ok, ok, I may have made it twice...

My first try at Canderli! In a simple vegetable broth.

Marcus Neiman chocolate chip cookies...they were a real hit.


Impromptu carbonara, necessary after my friend cooked about 1600 grams of spaghetti...

My friend wrongly estimated about 20 grams of spaghetti per person, which meant by the end of the NEXT week, we had spaghetti coming out of our ears...

The mini version of a delicious focaccia/pizza i made for Sam and I.
