A Little Foodie: December 2009
http://alittlefoodie.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 22 December 2009. Again, I've been neglecting this blog. I've got lots of photos and things to update over the next couple of weeks, but I'm going to start with my holiday in Norfolk. Sorry, no photos this time. We bought some parsnips to roast too - I love them - and we had some green beans. We were far too full for dessert after that. Tuesday lunch was fabulous. We went to a place called The Pigs. Roast one large/a couple of small squash, then cube when soft enough. Meanwhile, cook pasta.

A Little Foodie: February 2010
http://alittlefoodie.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, 28 February 2010. Cooking for others - and using the leftovers. Friday was my night to host the weekly graduate Jewish Society event. It's a pot luck and everyone shows up, unannounced, and brings something. Usually, amazingly, it works quite well. This week was fairly disastrous as only two people turned up. On the plus side on bought chocolate cheesecake! I started by frying an onion, some mushrooms (I had to have some kind of vegetable! And then I added the quorn mince. It's ugly:. I started b...

A Little Foodie: January 2010
http://alittlefoodie.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 19 January 2010. Now I'm sure after Christmas and New Year everyone promises to start dieting to make up for the Christmas excess, but this week my family failed at that. On Sunday, for my grandma's birthday, I went with mum, my two sisters and grandma to Fortnum and Masons for tea. We started with pink champagne and canapes: cheese straws, cheese and anchovy straws, cheese tartlettes and little salmon mousse toasts. Then we moved onto the sweet stuff - and there was mountains of it! But to be h...

A Little Foodie: May 2010
http://alittlefoodie.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, 22 May 2010. Needless to say, revision's been pretty slow going. First of all, a group of us went away for a few days. Then, the boy and I went to London to see our family and friends. Then there was an election and I looove politics, so that was more important. We've both had interviews. And now it's hot. Really really hot. And much harder to revise. So instead, speedy food, perfect for revision. Combine all with chick peas! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I'm a grad student at the University of O...

A Little Foodie: June 2011
http://alittlefoodie.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, 5 June 2011. I know that this blog has been left largely abandoned for a year, but I'm going to have a go at starting it up again. Last night, N and I went to Johnnie Mountain's The English Pig. I started with the pork scratching salad with apple and rhubarb:. This included little edible flowers, the little balls were apple pieces, and there were rhubarb and apple sauces. N had the chargrilled prawns, which had a good chili kick and garlicy sauce:.

A Little Foodie: Chinese Cookery
http://alittlefoodie.blogspot.com/2010/02/chinese-cookery.html
Saturday, 13 February 2010. So Annie decided that she and I should cook an Asian feast at my house (she lives in halls/dorms), and I supported that idea. We invited another friend and my housemate, and then my boyfriend decided that he would eat with us after all. So Annie and I had to factor in one hungry boyfriend, one over-excited Annie, and Anna who is a vegetarian. And Annie was determined to make dumplings. So we bought a mountain of dumplings, and a steamer to steam them on! What's For Lunch Honey?

A Little Foodie: Valentine's Day - Continued
http://alittlefoodie.blogspot.com/2010/02/valentines-day-continued.html
Monday, 15 February 2010. Valentine's Day - Continued. OK, I don't want to be entirely negative, and our evening was much better. He woke up and we watched The Wire on dvd - we are currently on Series 3 and really enjoying it. And then we headed to one of our favourite places for dinner, Santorini. On the Cowley Road. We opted for their mixed mezze, although it feels slightly like cheating by not choosing, we wanted to try lots of things. And it was definitely a good call! Pasta with meat and mushrooms.

A Little Foodie: October 2009
http://alittlefoodie.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 27 October 2009. We had a decent sized piece of lamb left over, and I decided to use that up last night. I had some mashed roast butternut squash as well, left over from home, so thought I'd so some kind of vag. Uely Moroccan style curry. Chopped leftover lamb - apologies, photo is from my iphone. First I chopped and fried an onion, some garlic and some ginger paste. I added some cumin seeds. Then I added mushrooms (a handful) and the squash. Then tomato puree (two tablespoons) and some water.
