We had a magnificent Easter Feast this year. We had home made fish cakes on Good Friday, and fish pie on Saturday. On Sunday I made souvlaki for dinner, with tabouleh and lettuce and tomato, and garlic sauce and toasted pita bread. It was sumptuously delicious. I had forgotten quite how much I like tabouleh. I must make it more often
But mostly, our feast was on Monday. I made some more scotch eggs and some prawn cakes (like fish cakes only with prawns instead of fish) for the entree. We had a truly lovely piece of lamb from Farmer Jayne roasted with Shetland Black roasted potatoes, mashed potatoes, sprouting broccoli from the garden and sweet potatoes, and a vegetable and white wine gravy.
And for dessert we had ice cream sundaes, with choc-mint ice cream (made with fresh mint), baileys ice cream and vanilla ice cream, topped with a chocolate and raspberry sauce, crushed nuts (no crushed nuts on mine!!) and tiny, tiny sugared Easter eggs. Now if I could only find the recipe for the chocolate sauce again. Although - I think I have a print out of it somewhere It was dead easy - just cocoa, sugar and water, to which I added some de-seeded raspberry jam and a healthy dollop of cream. I just can't remember the quantities for the sauce.
