I have to give my mum complete and utter credit for this, my first recipe post. Tonight I am going to cook a roast lemon and chicken dish - which would be the perfect accompaniment. I will post recipe and pictures tomorrow.
This picture is of one of my all time favourite meals. It was eaten in Sardinia, on the porch of a rented villa, and consisted of tomatoes, avocado, bread, lemon and cheese. It was so simple, all completely fresh and was one of those perfectly messy meals where hands and clothes and tablecloth were all stained with olive oil and white wine and crumbs by the end of the night. Bliss.
