Canadian Wild Rice, House Of Fraser, Asian Food

Well?..another busy week at Your Chef! We had a couple of dinners , a cake buffet, which was a dream to prep for ( I love baking cakes) and a lunch. We rounded off the week yesterday with a harvest festival lunch for 80 people, the excellent topside of beef supplied by Waters butchers in Brigg went down a treat.

Coming up?.if you are in Lincoln on Thursday pop into House of Fraser (Binns) and I will be cooking up some curries along with Maff Huda of Mr Huda?s Surma secrets. We will be cooking and distributing samples of some great Asian dishes. If you pop in come and make yourself known.

Weddings are getting booked up for next year at a nice rate of knots. I have even had an enquiry for 2011 !

What is in season this week?well I though I?d go for Damsons, my friend Joyce makes the best damson jam ever. I had a bash at it last week with some damsons that my neighbor gave me and I was quite pleased with the results. The recipe I used was on the following website http://homepage.ntlworld.com/family.lindop/Jam/damson.htm
It worked very well for me.

I have some Canadian wild rice to cook up and try this week so I will have some recipes involving that next week.

Thanks for reading, have a great week
