I had mentioned in an earlier In my kitchen post that I would share a recipe for a Pear and Amaretto Loaf cake passed on to me by a friend. She had made this loaf cake when attending Leith’s cooking school. It was also suggested you could use the recipe to make muffins… which I have done. Continue reading

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. .

RICE PAPER is the ingredient pick for August’s #foodandtoolsUseYourCookbookClub
.
.
RICE PAPERS once dipped in water become pliable wrappers for uncooked or cooked foods. At first, it may take a little practice working with this super thin ingredient, but as the saying goes, “practice makes perfect”.
.
.
You might already have this ingredient in your store cupboard otherwise you should easily find rice papers in the Asian section of well stocked supermarkets. .
.
Looking forward to seeing what recipe you make. If joining this month’s challenge or need a recap, read through the guidelines below. .
.
.
📚Using your own collection of cookbooks choose a savory or sweet recipe that includes RICE PAPERS. .
. 📚Between the 20th to 25th of August, post a photo of your completed dish on your Instagram account. Name your recipe, the cookbook and a brief description or story if there is one.

Sweet as a peach... these little doughnut peaches certainly are. It is pretty hard to stop at one once you start eating them. .
.
These delicious fruits are also known as UFO’s and Saturn peaches and are plentiful in the markets right now. .
.
Do you have a favourite name for these squashed looking peach’s?
