On Sunday night we baked our own bread.
It was so delicious when fresh out of the oven, with some butter and raspberry jam. It tasted like a big piping hot scone.
Tuesday we flew back into the Gold Coast. It’s been so nice to see some family, feel the sun and eat fantastic food! Oh how we’ve missed things like lamb, cheese, decent bread, our kitchen..
Here’s what we’ve been doing this week:
Baking and roasting. Mostly lamb and potatoes, but also one cake and one loaf of bread.
we cooked up some beautiful country style roast vegetable w/ beef spare ribs
the other night. & I’ve been meaning to blog about it
but we have been busy planning our trip back to China.
which deserves it’s own post (which I’ll do in the next few days)
so back to the cooking!
we went to woolworths & purchased a bunch of tasty veggies to bake:
beetroot
sweed
white & golden sweet potato
pumpkin
red onion
purple garlic
rosemarry
we also went to our local butcher for the beef spare ribs! so yum.
the key with a country style roast is to leave the skin on everything
and to just chop it up roughly
you’d be amazed at how yummy red onion is when it’s baked w/ the skin on
just add all the vegetables to a nice cast iron baking pan
add oil & salt.
maybe some dried herbs.
& bake @ 150c for 1.5 hours
the results:

I suggest using your hands to mix it all in! Joel took the opportunity to take a few photos, which all turned out to be fantastic.
