With little one on a sleep-over DW requested some “Italian nibbles” for a light dinner …
To start: Negroni for the cook …
It was a bit late to start the dough for a rosemary focaccia, so I decided for a scarpaccia instead. Thinly sliced zucchini & onions are salted, the resulting liquid is blended together with a bit of milk, olive oil, flour and fine polenta into a dough and spread onto a generously oiled baking try, topped with rosemary and baked for about 30 min …
The works: scarpaccia di zucchine (Tuscan zucchini cake), marinated champignons and olives, roasted peppers with anchovy, cod roe with capers & garlic, heirloom tomatoes with buffalo mozzarella, baked provolone, fried squid and shrimp with allioli and a nice Primitivo.
And some not soooo Italian churros (commercial product with excellent results in the airfryer) with chocolate sauce to finish …
All enjoyed while watching “The Northman”. And no complaints (except for that lame movie 🙄) …
