Dinner...but more importantly ice cream...

Home-made flat breads, topped with roquette (arugula), parmesan cheese and smoked dried ham.  The other one, just black olives, minced ham and cheddar cheese...


The main was a baked (2.3 kg) whole Turbot, with roasted parsnips and Jerusalem artichokes with a lime cream sauce...



This was so good I rarely rave about deserts but it's a keeper, in fact a new staple. It doesn't look much but it is very soft and stays that way, even a few days later.  I have an ice cream machine and this came out better without it.  It is so good I have decided to devote a whole post with a step by step processes tomorrow.  It is not easy to do, but I shall hold your hand!!!

  1. Those flat breads have made me hungry! I love making homemade pizza and flat bread. I have never had smoked dried ham. I bet it is delicious on flat bread! I bet your pug loves it too! Your ice cream looks like a wonderful dessert!

  2. Those flat breads look so good, Ivan. Well, it all looks good!

    Your blog is so inspiring. Even though I'm not likely to cook some of the dishes (beyond my skill level!), I do love to read about the recipes and preparation and flavours, and see the photos. And it's great to see more comments too, I'm glad your fabulous blog is getting the attention it deserves!

  3. I am sitting here wondering if I can wait until tomorrow for the ice cream recipe. The main course looks like a thin crust pizza, Jim and I just discussed this...not I know....I would really enjoy this meal.

    1. Hi Ron,
      Hope the recipe is do-able... let me know if I need to explain more. As it has no tomato sauce I dared not call it a pizza - but yes!! It was just with drinks, I will do a recipe for it if you want...
      Have a good weekend

    1. Hi Jim,
      Thanks - the post is posted! As you are head chef at home, I should have said to you ask if you need more details!! It was a really pleasing 'make' - hope you get to try it out.
      Have a good weekend
