Week 9, Friday

Yesterday I made a Blood Orange Sorbet with Campari - mixed the blood orange juice with sugar & poured into sorbet machine, left it for 30 mins - fairly simple. When the machine finished I moved it to the freezer & served it with a splash of Campari on top.

Next I made White Soda bread. Mixed flour, salt & bread soda together - added enough buttermilk to form a dough - shaped it, cut a cross in it & popped it in oven to bake - fantastic loaf of bread if I do say so myself.

Then I moved on to more bread - Indian puffy bread called Poori. Made the dough with brown wholemeal flour sifted to remove the bran, white flour, sunflower oil, salt & water. Kneaded the dough for 10 mins & then left to rest.

Next I poached my pears in water, sugar, cardamom pods & saffron until soft. Removed the pears & reduced the syrup. Yum!

Finished off the poori by cutting into 12 pieces, rolled them out & deep fried them in olive oil.

Sorbet and Calamari

Hope Christine didn't really mix calamari with her blood orange sorbet.
A really bad choice - sorbet and fish !!
CAMPARI would have been so much better !!
all best wishes for your future
