A very good potato salad from ” Notes from a Small Kitchen Island” by Debora Robertson. If you like it can be made the day before, but only add the onion and the herbs and stir them in about an hour before serving.
My latest cookbook purchase is the excellent “Notes from a Small Kitchen Island” by Debora Robertson. Debora lived in Stoke Newington until recently( she has now moved to France) and in one of the chapters she writes about the area. It brought back many happy memories for me as i lived in “Stokey ” for 30 years before moving back to the South West. This brunch or lunch is based on a starter from a wine bar called The Fox Reformed, another place of happy memories as i held my wedding reception there.
I visited good friends for dinner yesterday and was served this most delicious but simple supper for summer. My friend didn’t have any Cornichons so prepared the dish using capers instead, and this worked very well. The recipe is from Diana Henry’s ” From the Oven to the Table”, one of my go to cookbooks.
A French bistro classic from ” Cook Simple” by Diana Henry. You can replace the walnuts with hazelnuts and the Roquefort with Cashel Blue or Gorgonzola.
