Saturday breakfast rolls: basic white buttermilk.
Today's lunch: a savoury vegetable clafoutis, based on an amalgam of various recipes I found online, all of which used different measurements and different combinations of ingredients and most of which, like far too many conversions of recipes that were originally sweet things to savoury versions, default to chucking in cheese [/whinge off]. Anyway, I sauteed chopped bell peppers and baby white courgettes in olive oil, made a batter of 1 tablespoon of flour + tsp baking powder, salt, 2 eggs, and half a pint/250 ml approx of the remains of the buttermilk + milk , added pepper and dried thyme to the veggies, poured on the batter, and baked for around 40 mins. This was quite good but developed a bit of a skin on top during baking, also perhaps needed: more herbs? possibly onion/garlic? With this I served cinnamon baby aubergines baked in the oven, and padron peppers.
