You did a bloomin' good job. I'd eat the lot and want more.

I made Carla Lalli Music’s melted cauliflower [linguine] which I’ve been fancying for weeks. It was nice enough, if a bit lacking in dimension. Next time I will add crispy lardons or chorizo and maybe play around with the cooking of the onions a bit. It felt like a good start.
I think I tried this and was similarly underwhelmed. My fave new cauliflower pasta is Melissa Clark's Fusilli & Roasted Cauliflower with Capers. I've got some roasted cauli in the fridge atm so am going to try a leftover version tomorrow.

Well now, this sounds like a much better use of my next cauli effort - I love roasted cauliflower so much! Let us know how your leftover version goes.

Pippola, Your cake is just beautiful :love:

The cake has only improved today.

This evening we had Bolognese, garlic bread & rocket salad.

Your garlic pie looks terrific, emma! What’s the inside like? I’m trying to imagine and can’t. (I could Google, but I would like to know about yours).

I just made a sausage roast/bake. It’s a riff on a Smitten Kitchen recipe - hers is sausage, potatoes and shallots, roasted off and then tossed with rocket and lemon juice to serve. I added roasted peppers to the roasting pan and tossed it all with rocket and agrodolce. It was lush.
