Aļoli


One of the most delicious garlic sauces ever to be invented! It is full of flavour and makes almost everything it touches taste good! Admittedly I am not a big fan of raw vegetables, however once you dip them in Aioli, *bang*, I’m there! I think carrot sticks taste particularly amazing when dipped in aioli, but you can really dip any raw vegetable in your aioli- celery, cucumber, snowpeas, radish… the end of the vegetable patch really is the limit. In France, Aļoli is traditionally served with seafoods such as fish, but for the moment, I think I shall stick with the vegetables.


Making Aļoli is very similar to making your own mayonnasise. One of the great things about Aļoli is how easy it is to whip up and yet how flavoursome it is! I highly recommend it as a dip for picnic lunches! Who needs junk food, when you can so easily make a dip like Aļoli which will make even the most unexciting vegetables taste delicious!

Aļoli

Ingredients: 2 egg yolks, 3 large garlic cloves finely chopped, 100mL olive oil, lemon juice strained, to taste, salt & pepper, to taste.

Steps: Beat the egg yolks with the garlic in a bowl. Gradually add the olive oil until well combined. Season with salt and pepper, then add a few drops of lemon juice to taste.

Peanut butter & chocolate-chip muffins!
Peanut butter & chocolate-chip muffins!


Yes it is true! I did indeed bake MORE muffins! Today it was Peanut butter & chocolate-chip muffins! The main factor spurring on this baking expedition today, was my insatiable craving for peanut butter. That deliciously golden spread, which many of us just cannot get enough of! Sure it is high in fat, but at least it is not fried. Well in any case, that is the story I am sticking to. An interesting fact is that the humble peanut is not in fact a nut at all, but a member of the legume family (famously known for its many beans).
