Mission Menu & Tasting 

So on a day that looked like this, we got together at gatty's cafe to add some more items to his existing menu so to get ready for the upcoming tourist season.

I taught them how to make stuffed garlic bread 

Like Stuff-Your-Face-Now-Or-It-Will-Fall-Apart kind of stuffing!

Rice, bean and bacon burritos 

Pita Bread in an Oven

And succulent falafels with my kind of hummus :)

 In Pita Pockets

It was quite awesome if i may say so :)and was devoured by the guests we had invited for the trials...!

We also made thick, luscious ragu which we forgot to photograph:(

Lemon Drizzle  Cake

125g unsalted butter

175g caster sugar

2 large eggs

zest of 1 lemon

175g self raising flour
pinch of salt

4 tablespoons milk

1 cake tin buttered or lined

For the syrup:

juice of 1 and a half lemons

100g icing sugar

To Make The Cake:

Preheat your oven to 180 C/ gas mark 4.

Cream together butter and sugar and add eggs and lemon zest, beating them in well.

Gently fold in the flour and the salt, mixing thoroughly and then add the milk.

 Spoon the batter into your prepared tin and bake for 45 minutes or until cake tester comes out clean.

For the syrup:

Put the lemon juice and icing sugar into a small saucepan and heat gently until the sugar dissolves.

As soon as cake is out of oven, puncture all over with a fork or tooth pick (in my case) and pour the syrup.

Leave cake to cool completely before removing from the cake tin.

Serve or eat with weak Darjeeling tea…
