Fortnightly themed dinners

[Halex]

As I have so many cookbooks, yes really, surprise I hear you all say, but for some reason i do

I thought I might  try & do a fortnightly themed dinner night, eg. mexcan, italian, middle eastern, greek, asian etc. the idea is to try new recipes & have fun.

Anyone want to play?

I know a few people who might be doing an Italian  night with their new pizza machines.

Sounds fun! And like you say it might help me to use more of my cookbooks!

It doesnt have to be fornightly, could be monthly.

I am going to make an Israeli dsh from my new book Jerusalem, sometime before the end of January.

I would like to play.   I am a bit unreliable at the moment but will do my best.  I would love to know what you cook from 'Jerusalem" as I got it for Xmas.  i also have his 2 other books, and have made only one dish ,  which i have posted. ( Eggplant Cheese Cake)

Great chooks, just another way to use our library, lol

Looking at chicken sofrito pg 190, served with roasted butternut, red onion, tahini & zatar, pg 36

All looks amazing

Hally,  i just looked the sofrito up.  This is exactly what I cooked last night,  without knowing.    We had visitors over and they loved it. If you turn to page 195 ,  this is what we are having tomorrow night.

I'm too tired to play but if I get some energy, motivation and cool weather, you never know - I might join you one night.

[Jude59]

I've got all his books too. Jerusalem is great.  I need to get to know some of these recipes in a more meaningful way too

[kezza]

Gosh JD, you sound so low. Not like you to not have any energy - hope its only the weather getting you down

[judydawn]

I'm fine Kerry just feeling lazy and hot weather does make me tired at the best of times.  I haven't become grumpy yet though which is surprising.
