what i cooked last saterday

[sterretjie]

here was i, not a good cook in anybodies books, trying to make something nice.... and my goodness it actually worked.

had a deer fillet, quickly fried it on all sides and then had it in the oven at 180°C for about 20 minutes.

had a nice field salat (not sure if that is the right translation in english) wit cherry tomatoes and red onion.

then self made mash topped with fried/glazed onions. (ok, i know, loads of calories )

and then the sauce.....
cream
port (don't be shy here)
dijon mustard
little bit of the sauce that you get from the meat.

well people, that was it and even i have to say.... WOW!!!!!

should anybody try it, let me know.

Tks Sterretjie, I think I will cook tonight, as the only thing Dee knows to cook is pasta with grated cheese on top and as for Kym well I will have to go hungry LOL

[sterretjie]

no good jill, no good.

so, what are you going to cook tonight then? something simple i guess, seeing as you are not doing well.

[Jillibeans]

Probably something Schwabish (seen as we lived here 'As in Rome do as the Romans do'). Actually no idea maybe something quick and easy with pasta - make Dee's day
