Challenge / Cook a new meal every day for 30 days.
Today didn’t go quite according to plan.
The plan was to attempt something simple and French. From what little research I did, that appears to be an oxymoron…
To be fair this was a simple recipe that I screwed up in two ways: I didn’t have a cover for my frying pan, so most of the sauce thinned out too much (well, I’m guessing). And I stuck the creme fraiche in way too early and had to cook it – it should have been added last of all.
The result tasted better than it looked, which was just as well!
I also added a stir fried salad, which was mediocre. Here’s a highly flattering photo of it (the camera can play wonderful tricks):
I shall chalk this one up to experience!
In other news, I also managed my fourth omelette. As you can see, it looks a lot better than my first:
Onwards to tomorrow!
