Kossuth Kifli

15 March is the anniversary of the  Hungarian Revolution of  1848 outbreak. Kossuth was one of the most influential lawyer, journalist, politician of his time. Also a devoted freedom fighter. Apparently this cake was his favourite. Let’s remember for all who fought for freedom at any time throughout the history with this cake!

Almond and Orange Cake

When I made this cake on the second time, I have accidently left out the caster sugar from the mixture. I’ve thought, that’s it, ruined, but turned out to be lovely. Not so sweet, but sweet enough, thanks for the orange syrup. The original recipe -by Michel Roux Jr.-, contains 225g caster sugar.

Trout Fillet served on Risotto and Almond Sauce

This weekend I’ve payed a visit to my local butcher , where I always find some lovely cut of meat. Since my last visit the shop has been extended, and now they have a fish counter as well. That’s where I’ve found a nicely cut trout fillet from the local Test Valley. I just couldn’t leave it there.
