It’s the most wonderful time of the year (Autumn)

11.04.2016 by georgie // 1 Comment

I love autumn, it truly is my most favourite time of the year. Cold enough to snuggle up, wear layers and stay indoors, but still mild enough to invite people over for dinner (and wine) and guarantee they’ll come (by January you have to promise me an insane feast to get me to leave the house). Also I think food is at its peak. Spring and Summer are strong contenders, I know, but I love nothing more than the flavours, colours and textures of autumn. Pumpkins, squashes, mushrooms, orchard fruits, cabbage, kale, game… It combines a lot of my favourite things, including a natural desire to slow cook everything and fill the house with warm and spiced smells.

Spiced roast veg, labneh + pistachio za’atar.
Homemade carob molasses! Hands up who guessed right from my stories yesterday?! I have always had big love for this quintessential Cypriot ingredient, and yiayia took it one step further and taught me how to make my own molasses!
Slow start to the weekend. By 7am the girls had made croissants from a tin (anyone else do this as a kid?! Pure nostalgia). And we’re now on breakfast round two… you can’t beat a Saturday morning, crisp skirt egg. Might treat myself and get dressed at some point too. Hope you’re all having a lovely start to the weekend x
Quick pasta e ceci. Who else adores the combination of pasta + chickpeas? It’s a real staple in our house. The girls LOVE it. And it’s very forgiving, I can use whatever veg I have to hand. Carrots, kale, spinach etc would all make great additions. Even if you don’t have fresh tomatoes, as long as you have a bit pure purée that is all you need. Leave out the Parmesan + it’s vegan. Or throw in some pancetta or guanciale for a meatier version. Store cupboard, versatile + nutritious. Lots of ticks.
