Mr S was away in Finland playing football this past weekend and I thought I'd use the opportunity to entertain chez Last-Year. I'm not the most skilled cook but writing for Domestic Sluttery has given me the confidence to at least have a bash. There was a (very) loose Spanish theme to the evening with lots of Rioja wine to wash over my mistakes!
We had a feast that included Paprika potatoes (possibly my new favourite recipe).
Some homemade soda bread - that well-known product of Spain! - made using the recipe I learnt with bread baking in Bedruthan.
A lovely sticky ham. With a side order of chorizo.
And some juicy catalan spinach.
We finished the evening with some creamy, Spanish-style desserts courtesy of my pal Layla.
I was very full and merry by the end of the evening.
Thanks Vicki for the pictures and Vicki, Layla and Rachael for the excellent random chat - as always.
Stop successfully making hams. It's not fair.
ReplyDeleteThe success is entirely down to someone's excellent recipe!
