What did you cook, eat or drink today (November 2018)?

Ah! So not so bog standard with hot thai chilli flavour bangers and mash with creme fraiche.

Well I couldn't resist 'twiddling' a bit.

Of course I was kidding! Should have put in a smiley.

Its not so easy to get veal here. There is still prejudice against it due to some cruel farming practices in the UK many, many years ago. So thousands of bull calves are simply shot at birth, rather than being raised for veal.

One of our 'gourmety' type places does veal, I did a fab (well I think so anyway) Osso Bucco a while back. But they also do veal steaks, chops and casserole/pie veal.

Roasted aubergine, peppers and cheese quiche - I was using up stuff.

Chicken wings from a knock.off recipe from a local small chain of Italian skewed sports bars. Marinated in rosemary, lots of garlic, lemon juice, EVOO, salt and pepper. Served with caramelized onions and focaccia at the restaurants.

They bake them in their coal fired pizza ovens, but Craig used coals and pecan wood and cooked them on the rotisserie. I did caramelize some onions, but I made spicy Cajun potato salad to.go with.

Gooey butter toffee cake for desert tonight.

Craig's sound more interesting.

Craig's sound more interesting.

They taste very similar, but Craig's are a little smokier and a lot less greasy.

OMG, try not to ever have to cough or sneeze when you are taking a drink of amaretto. I just did, coughed, and part of it went down the wrong way, as well as up into my nose/sinuses. SERIOUS burn!

I couldn't breathe for about a minute, but things went back to normal after 2-3 minutes. I NEVER want that to happen again.
