Cheese Mash (2)

A good mash to serve on the side with some sausages, grillede bacon or grilled chicken. You can also make Double Cheese Mash by scooping the mash into an ovenproof dish , scattering with a good handful each of Parmesan and fine breadcrumbs, then baking in a very hot oven until the top is golden and fairly crisp. The recipe is from ” Real Food” by Nigel Slater.

Affogato al Caffe (4)

Affogato is one of my favourite ice cream desserts and I found a recipe ( though you dont really need one) in ” Real Food” by Nigel Slater. The expresso must be very strong and fragrant and use the best vanilla ice cream you can find in the supermarket. The ice cream should be quite hard, but soft enough to scoop without breaking.
