A few days ago I had a dream about making milk soup, or "zupa mleczna". In my dream, I used cannelloni, which is completely inappropriate, and accidently put paprika in it. I have no idea what my sub-conscious was trying to to tell me (perhaps...
I am back in Eastbourne for the weekend - I forgot all my camera bit and pieces, that's why I haven't written for a week. Since I am by the sea, I decided to cook a fishy dinner. And if you're going to do that...
I have to be honest, I messed up the tomato soup. But it still turned out good. I spent ages cooking, tasting, adding ingredients to get the taste just right, and then I messed it all up by putting way, way too much rice in....
Polish food has a reputation for being meaty and stodgy. This isn't entirely unwarrented of course, but, there are many lighter, meat-free, lesser-known dishes, which I would like to bring to someone's (anyone's) attention. One of these is this spinach dish, which my mum used...

There's no other word to describe my Easter, other than "traumatic", hence my failure to keep up with the blogging recently. But before all the trauma, there was my mum's lovely low fat cheesecake, which is ridiculously easy to make. My mum measures everything in...
I personally think that the full English breakfast at Hackney City Farm fits the bill quite well. All the food is free range and tastes fresh and flavoursome, not greasy. The price of about £7 (with extra for a cup of tea or coffee) also...
