… Autumn Salad & Cranberry Dip
This was a meal I did without any thought. I just pick a meal, walked to the shops to buy the ingredients and then came home and cooked it. It was also one of those meals that I wasn’t starting to cook until after 10 at night.
This looked like quite a comforting meal. Cheese fried in a little parcel of filo pastry. There is a cranberry sauce made with port and some ground cloves and, appropriately for the season, it tasted more than a little like Christmas.
I came up against one very significant problem today. The salad you make requires a pomegranate. I had a pomegranate. So I didn’t buy one when I went shopping. I can’t quite remember when I bought it, but it looked fine from the out side. On the inside it was more than a little bit rotten. Therefore my salad had no pomegranate. This omission is probably the most significant I have made since starting this project. I wasn’t very happy.
This was a nice meal. Easy to cook. Tasted good and it was comforting. This would only really make a light lunch for four. Between two of us, we eat all four Camembert parcels and over half the salad.
