Getting into the Halloween spirit I decided to make Pumpkin Pie. I like this recipe as it is not too sweet and has a hint of spice but not overpowering. And the Pastry is delicious and easy to work with. Use Gluten Free Flours if you want a gluten free pastry. PASTRY: FILLING: PASTRY: Sift […]
I made this Rice dish to go with the Spiced Lamb and Apricot Stew and it was really delicious. Everyone who ate it specifically commented on how delicious it was. It was quite time consuming compared to the Stew but it was worth it. The crunchy base really added a lovely texture. It is from […]
This tasty stew is very quick and easy to prepare and even though it has very few ingredients it has plenty of flavour. This is a recipe from another Sabrina Ghayour cookbook, Persiana, which I love.
