Sent #amazon to the other end of the galaxy to find Butterfly Pea Flowers to naturally colour “Bantha” milk...a blue milky drink Luke Skywalker downed in episode four of Star Wars. .
.
As I had no chance of ever finding milk from female Banthas here on earth, went for good old cows milk for the local cold store. And made, this Glittery Butterfly Pea Flower “Bantha Milk” and Blue Ice Meteorites for this months @foodnflix movie theme. .
.
Steeping a few dried butterfly pea flowers in almost boiling milk for about five minutes was enough to colour the milk a shade of blue. After removing the flowers, sweetened the milk with grated white chocolate and topped with hot frothed milk. Sprinkled over some edible stars, silver glitter and a few blue dried cornflowers. I am sure my kids would have loved this (minus the cornflowers) when they were children for sleepovers and parties. .

Love the blue ice cubes. You can turn the blue water pink by adding some lemon juice if you want pink ice cubes Experiments in progress. 😊 Host for this month’s movie theme is @simplyinspiredmeals1554 .

Just another way to eat broccoli. Have you ever grown your own microgreens? Do you have a favorite? Mine are red cabbage, broccoli and cress. Micro plants are packed full of nutrients and considered a super food. Easy to grow and you can find many types of growing trays and seeds online. .

When you’re on a roll.... rice paper rolls filled with sautéed garlic beef, lettuce coriander and mint .
.
Added a little extra and scattered over toasted black sesame seeds and amaranth microgreens. This was my first time growing this particular seed, pretty colour but the micro greens were so fine you could barely taste them.
.
.
The large rice paper sheets were easier to fill, cutting the rolls into smaller pieces before serving alongside a spicy sweet and sour dipping sauce. .
.
Another tasty recipe from Bobby Chinn’s cookbook Vietnamese Food for the #foodandtoolsUseYourCookbookClub Bobby used fresh rice noodle sheets with this recipe but I m went for dried rice papers instead.

Rice papers filled with prawns, lettuce, coriander, mint, chives and rice vermicelli, these fresh spring rolls are my dish for this months #foodandtoolsUseYourCookbookClub .
.
Had forgotten how delicious the peanut sauce with coconut milk was as I hadn’t visited Bobby Chinn’s Vietnamese Cookbook in ages. I also remember how I enjoyed watching his programs on TV, cooking his way around Asia. .
.
At first, rolling the fresh rice papers rolls was a bit fiddly and was feeling quite rusty. After rolling a few (eating the ones that didn’t work out), managed to get the hang of it. The small rice paper rolls took me longer to fill, the large ones much easier, especially when you’re out of practice... like me. Don’t you love the online videos that make rolling rice papers look so easy 😊
.
.
Not in the recipe, used micro red cabbage sprouts as a garnish, these stuck to the outside of the rice paper rolls, adding a mild crisp cabbage taste. .
.
Look forward to seeing what you fill your rice paper rolls with. Remember, you have the 20th to 25th of this month to post your dish.

Without the fuss of using tart tins,
free-form tarts are easy to make. This tomato with roasted garlic and feta cheese is July’s seasonal recipe from the 2019 BBC good food calendar. All you need now is a lovely green salad on the side and...lunch is served. .

Hope everyone is enjoying the Eid holiday. What would celebrations be without a few baked goodies. This time thought I’d fill the ma’amoul pastry with my homemade mince pie filling which already includes dates and nuts. Maybe not so traditional but equally delicious. .
.
Some years back at a school, one of my favourite recipes to teach students was how to make ma’amoul. One of their favorite parts was pressing the filled pastry ball into the wooden mould. Then tapping the mould on the table, releasing a perfectly formed pastry mound with a pretty pattern. It was usually followed by and with the happiest of smiles... “Look Miss, I did it, I did it.” And I still smile each time I turn out one too. .
.
Adding to my collection, found another wooden ma’amoul mould @purefalastini also the pretty handmade plate too. .
