Sunday roast time again, this time roast duck with roast potatoes and an orange and onion salad. The ubiquitous green beans… we seem to eat a lot of green beans. Husband made a sauce/ gravy with some of the juices ( and fat) and he added freshly squeezed orange juice.
On Saturday night I made Chicken Korma with sweet potatoes made from scratch with fine almond flour as the thickening along with some wheat flour and butter. No coconut milk, so no Thai influence just Indian. Based on a recipe from Rick Stein’s India book. You make the sauce separate from the frying chicken, onions, garlic and ginger and before adding those ingredients into the sauce, I sieved the sauce with all it’s spices, so it was smooth and creamy.
I also made a quick flat bread just from flour, salt and water, rolled out and heated without oil in a caste iron pan...Chapati.
For something sweet after dinner, I whizzed up pitted dates, ground almond flour, Dutch chocolate powder all mixed with a little chocolate liquor, rolled into balls and then rolled in coconut. No sugar.
