I tinkered with the mushroom tart adding some truffle oil and sticky balsamic to help it, but it was still lacking... I also fried up the soy tempeh for protein which is very nice and added the slightly over steamed brocollini and asparagus to the meal.

Didn't get a cooked pic but this was pre cooking.
My own home made sausages on left, shop bought on right. I don't remember what sort they were as I lost the label. I think they are Polo Kadu sausages.

Beef and Bacon burger. Looks more well done than it actually was.

Bouef bourguignon.
For some reason I just can't get this right! Too salty again, came out really dark and the meat was breaking up. Will try again though, I will succeed.
Served with some champ, peas and carrots from the garden.

Just made some guacamole for tonight's meal.

Are you following a specific recipe?

Yes, from the Hamlyn All Colour Cookbook. I think it might be just the oven temp. It's an old book and doesn't do fan oven temps. I did reduce it but maybe I need to drop it a tad further.

Hearty British food as I got it when I lived with a British family. Roasted parsnips & purple carrots ( those are the dark veggies) , cheesy mash, onion gravy and chicken strips because no time for a full roast.

Beef stew and dumplings

2 slices of fruit loaf, bread type with spicey cinnamon flavour. Not as I remember, not much fruit and not much taste. Very disappointed.!! I can't complain as it was given to me by a baker friend of my daughters.

I'll take a peek at the recipe as I have that same book - but I'm away at the moment so it won't be until next weekend. We had a Bourguignon Cookalong a while back. I'll try to find a link.
