Snow is falling outside and the sky is solid grey.

Snow is falling outside and the sky is solid grey. It’s a Dutch baby kind of morning. I made both mini and small dutch babies and served with with our homemade espresso maple syrup (yes the maple syrup you watched me make last March #LexMaple) and bacon (the stuff I never show buying at the store.) It’s quick and easy, and honestly I usually whip up the batter a blender. .

Butter chicken for lunch. Okay! I’ve spent year

Butter chicken for lunch. Okay!
I’ve spent years trying to find a butter chicken/murg makhani recipe or commercial sauce that gave me the fragrance and complexity I want out of this restaurant “classic”. And it turns out, I might have been the problem all along. I tried building a hybrid of 3 @instantpotofficial Recipes (I do know what I want and how the flavour should work) including Madher Jaffrey’s. And BOOM! the best success for flavour ever! On my first try in my new Instant Pot.
Yes, I’m behind the game.
But delighted with the results. Now... what to make next?

Living up to its name this Brutti ma Buoni is “ugly but good”. But it is the closest I have come to getting these Italian hazelnut meringue cookies right. (And I’m sure to devour them anyway.) I’ve been chasing the proper name and recipe for these cookies for a couple of years! I don’t think they are even close to perfect yet - double cook? Oven temp? (perhaps time to beg @eriscooking for some guidance) And they doo look suspiciously similar to the “bowel buddies” my mother in law makes.
But I am delighted none the less!

When the final pitcher of birthday margaritas gets left in the ice maker for almost 24 hours, it comes out bejewelled and perfectly cooled for the next night’s cocktails.
Yum!

Breakfast sorted! @thefrittercompany makes crave worthy fritters. Since I was up before the rest of the family, I zipped over to the @stjacobsmarket first thing to grab some fritters.
Mmmmmmm fritters
