We need a recipe for the chocolate crepes. How do you make chocolate pancakes? Do you use cocoa powder in a standard crepe mix?

Fortunately, I could cook most everything in advance, at least starting the morning of. The potato dish had to be baked but it was assembled. The only things that needed immediate cooking were the asparagus and the riced cauliflower. I had a friend toss the salad since I didn't want the greens crushed before serving. Others brought beverages.

I found the reference to the cauliflower and saffron which rang a bell in my head! Its in Niki Segnit's wonderful book 'The Flavour Thesaurus'. I'll post it up later...

Peppers and onions go so well with kebabs. I use them too. I serve mine with satay sauce.

Cavatelli look great, did you do them on your own?

Is that coriander garnish? I've never tried that on chilli.

No - its parsley (the curly sort).

The satay sauce is a good idea.
