Sweet desserts for YC CG mtg

Cold & Sweet

I cooked 2 packets of "Happy Grass" Mango Pudding last Saturday. Poured into small pudding molds. Chilled over night, to share with the young men and ladies of YC OUG CG. I love to prepare desserts that are easy to make and nice to eat and this is one of them :0)

Drinks, drinks and more drinks...

We had this last night at 10pm. This is what we normally do out of those abnormal Friday nights where we do not host HF. We called it "family get together nights" Ater the dose of caffeine we couldn't sleep and so we enjoyed the cool night breeze at our garden plucking soft music, serenading our two dogs. What an interesting way to take a break from the norm.... :0)

Grilled Lamb Patties

Lamb Patties by Wannabe Chef CK

Juicy grilled lamb patties

Dig in ...

Yesterday we had rather light dinner. At around 10pm, the kids started to ask for supper. CK took the opportunity to try out a recipe which had been floating in his mind....lamb patties. We had 500 gr of minced meat in the freezer, therefore only 3 patties could be made to feed the hungry boys! If you are interested, you can have this special recipe with CK's blessings.

Ingredients:

500 gr minced lamb
2 yellow onions (cut into cubes)
6 pips garlic (finely chopped)
a pinch of fine salt
a few dashes of Rosemary and black pepper.

Method:

In a mixing bowl, mix all ingredients thoroughly. Divide into few small portion.Shape into a ball of meat and flatten the top.
Grill in an oven for about 10 minutes.
Serve with bread or Naan.

Blessed New Year !
