Dinner last night...


The Table

...with Anne and Martin over from Germany we had a full house for dinner last night, with lots of help from Flyingpops I did roast silverside of beef for eight, which I think is the most people I have ever cooked for..(we had to borrow crockery from Flyingpop's mum)!

We started with Prawn cocktail on a bed of shredded iceburg lettuce, followed by the beef (or nut and cheese plait for the veggies), served with a red wine sauce, crispy roast potatoes, mashed swede, boiled cabbage, steamed carrots, brocolli, minted garden peas and sugar snap peas...

Desert was lemon meringue pie, which was followed by port and mixed cheese board (extremely ripe stilton, cheddar, brie and camembert, served with a selection of cheese biscuits), and freshly made espresso coffee...

Exhausting, but yummy... ;)
