Latest delicacies

We bought a grill recently. Not any grill, it claims to be a "Lean, Mean, Fat Reducing Grilling Machine". I can simply imagine a hip-hop background to this chorus. Oh dear, now they are trying to make ads rhyme too!!!

In any case, it's great, and we can enjoy kebabs in January. The ones on the picture shows smoked tofu kebabs with a lemon & herbs marinade. Very nice.


I did not have any room left for a dessert...


And yesterday, I made a cauliflower and broccoli flan which was delicious. I made the pastry with 1/3 wholemeal flour, 1/3 plain flour and 1/3 millet flakes. Precook the pastry for 15 min.

For the filling, parboil medium-size broccoli and cauliflower for 10 min (cut into small florets). Arrange the florets in the pastry case. Then melt 3 TBSP butter, fry a chopped onion in the pan, add 2-3 TBSP flour, 150ml milk, 6TBSP veg stock, 50g grated cheese. Season to taste. Pour on top of broccoli & cauliflower. Sprinkle with grated cheese. In the oven for 15 min.
