Last Friday
I prepared a 3-course meal for my mum and Jack. The theme ‘Woodland’ inspired
the look of the food and table. I didn’t have a budget or much time as it was
just a fun little meal but the two of them loved it and were impressed by how much
my cooking has improved!
I bought
some fresh lavender and this scented the entire room.
Vegetarian cooking
is usually very inspired by nature so the forest, fresh, natural aspects were
already in the colours and ingredients. I LOVE sweet potato so made patties
that were then fried and put in a toasted bun with avocado and garlic hummus. The
desert was a wild blueberry tart, which contained mascarpone cheese and
gingernut biscuits! I found the recipe here http://www.versesfrommykitchen.com/2013/07/blueberry-mascarpone-tartlets.html
and it was very easy to follow. Sadly
my tart was quite hard to cut and instead of perfectly formed slices, I
presented a heap of blueberries, cream and crumbly base on the gold plates.
Fortunately though the tart tasted lovely and this is really the result that’s important!
