Again, from Pappagallo. \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not the lightest and healthiest of meals, but it’s not that often that I make a sauce like this, so hopefully we’ll live. Having said that, I should really repeat the blood tests, see if my cholesterol is any lower. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, the dinner this evening was heavily inspired by Luca Pappagallo, but I made the sauce a bit differently and skipped fennel seeds and garlic. Gently sweated off half a small onion, then crumbled in 2 Tuscan sausages and cooked them until nicely brown. A good slosh of cream. Gorgonzola piccante, in small pieces, a generous handful. Black pepper and fresh sage. I ended up adding a little bit of cornflour mixed with water to thicken the sauce a bit. No salt was needed. Gnocchi went in, straight from the boiling water. A rich, filling, tasty plate of food. Served with lovely grilled asparagus, crunchy and delicious. I had to have some, as a week ago we have been cooked for by one of our friends, a competent cook, but he murdered his asparagus, it was mushy and desperate on the plate, I really don’t know what the hell happened there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few days ago I cooked one more thing from Luca’s book, easy, simple and delicious, next time I will serve it with a crunchy green salad like a veggie schnitzel. Aubergine splices, salted and left to release some water, platted dry after about 30 minutes. Tossed in flour, egg and breadcrumbs and fried. Excellent!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And finally a giant lemon I was given today by Anna. A real monster, I think I might make a lemon pound cake tomorrow and give her half. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
