How Can I Improve My Netflix

After the Rain - A plate of vegetables and fried rice ice cream, frozen citrus and candied pistachios

It was still a little strange, it must be said. What what? Well, it was rather unlikely not to be touched by adversity, the Fate who returns sting repeatedly. Until a few days, until 15.59 or so, I remained quiet about.

About Zen when I plant my macbook. Because I plant with extended warranty, and it's already 788 pounds of savings.
Pretty cool when the other half dies macbook mini three days later, dying in its settings from 1 January 1970. Downright
phlegmatic when bronchitis tears my trachea. Significantly
weighted conjunctivitis while attacking my left eye.
Resigned when I see an allergic attack on my white hands.

But more than the accumulation of these incidents, the drop was precisely the accumulation of water droplets which discharge their gloom over the city oozing. Yes, we're in London, no doubt about it. It is dark gray, not to mention the utter darkness that points from 4:02 p.m..

You tell me that Paris is like night and there is barely an hour later. Except that no, it's not the same, one more hour, mean that it is still 4:30 p.m. daily. 16.30, as a snack. And I do not take my lunch when it's dark.

Having ranted, cursed and trampled across the UK, so faithful to his photographs, I asked
competent authorities shine. Day and night. I have not answered
for the day, but it was beautiful, as if by magic. Probably because it was my birthday.


rays are distributed, but morale remains sunny. After all, my cards arrived, my memory has been supported (and having discussed the temperature measurement of sugar finger while the defense is a great success in itself, is not it?) is nearly Christmas, and London is great.

No recipe mince pies or Christmas pudding, just a nice plate of vegetables, served when you-know-maybe-who came dinner at home. Also at that famous dinner, I cooked up an ice cream for dessert grilled rice (recipe inspired by Fumiko), with a citrus jelly and candied pistachios few. Unfortunately, the photos are terrible, but trust me on this one.

vegetable plate, speck, cauliflower semolina




Serves 4
mini leeks, bok choy, mini, mini asparagus, mini fennel, cherry tomatoes
1 / 2 butternut
1 large tablespoon Dijon mustard 4 slices Speck

cauliflower lemon

few shavings of pecorino di fossa (Pecorino matured in a pit as its name suggests, very powerful, earthy flavors presques riddled)

Peel the butternut squash (with a razor vegetables) and cut few thin slices on the top with a mandolin. Place in a bowl of cold water. Cook the rest of butternut (furnace or water) and mix by adding water to a smooth texture but not liquid. Add mustard, salt and pepper and set aside. Blanch the bok choy
, asparagus and fennel separately and refresh under cold water. Peel the tomatoes. Grill mini leeks baked, they must begin to blacken slightly. The whole book.
Grill speck in the oven for ten minutes at 180 degrees, turn oven off and leave the slices.
Grate the cauliflower and stir to microplane with the zest of 1 / 2 lemon (also at the microplane, if possible).

Just before serving, heat the butternut squash and sauté the vegetables in a tablespoon of olive oil. Spoon a large dollop of butternut in the bottom plates, arrange the vegetables in creating the terrain, add the toasted slice of Speck and sprinkle a little cornmeal cauliflower. Add a few shavings of pecorino di fossa and serve.

Ice fried rice, frozen citrus, candied pistachios


Ice grilled rice

50g Basmati rice 60g sugar 15g honey

50cL milk

Cook rice in a dry skillet. The grains are slightly brown and smell of puffed rice cereal (such Smacks, remember?).
Cook rice in 30cl of water, about twenty minutes, until tender. Add sugar, honey and 2 / 3 milk. Mix until a homogeneous preparation by adding the remaining milk as you go. Keep refrigerated and churn just before serving.

citrus jelly

1 lemon 1 lime 1 orange

50cL
water 125g sugar 3 sheets gelatin
(6gr)

Prepare a syrup with water and sugar. Slice
regularly citrus slices and place in a large bowl. Bring to boil and pour over citrus. Cover with film and marinate at room temperature for 24 hours.
Recover citrus slices. (I do care for pickling and other sweets s)
Pass the syrup through a chinois. A small portion of the syrup, heat and dissolve gelatine previously soaked in ice water. Mix the rest of the syrup. Allow to cool
freeze.

To serve, combine jelly whip, spread a nice scoop at the bottom of the containers, add a scoop of ice cream and some candied pistachios.
