Follow my new #Tumblr #Blog @aflirtatiousmarriage for tri-weekly recipe of the day updates. Submerge yourself within the confines of deliciousness and inspiration.  

1 Sweat the onions in a frying pan for 5 minutes. Then add mushrooms. Then add the minced beef. Using a wooden spoon to ensure the mince is completely broken up into small individual pieces. No large Clumps welcomed to this party LOL.  

2 Once everything is golden brown add tomato passa, either shop bought or homemade. (In all my recipes I make my own.) To the mixture add red wine vinegar, red wine, tomato purée, beef stock. Allow to boil for 10 minutes. Then add all the other dry ingredients; dried onions, soy sauce, Worcester sauce, Chinese 5 spice, herbs, black pepper, salt, pepper corns, garlic, Cayenne pepper, chilli flakes, chilli salt. Allow to cook for 2 hours.  

3 Serve with boiled rice, chips, potato wedges, mash potatoes or quinoa. Whichever sparks your keen interest. Perhaps with a wrap or flat bread on the side. Toasted even (my personal fav). Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps. Possibilities are endless. Either serve immediately once the rice or other sides have been cooked or better leave to rest overnight for all the flavors to become intensified. However you have your bon appetite.

Perfect Autumn Food

[capellavanryan]

A new #French Post coming this #Wednesday over on #Deauvillebythesea blog 

[capellavanryan]

Perfect for a Sunday treat or a day barricaded in the house from a wild raging out of control storm. Either way, this is the pure definition of autumn to me. Rich, sweet and simply delicious.

1 Bring to a boil a pot of kettle boiled water, add brown sugar and lemon juice. Once the liquid comes to a boil, add the sliced and cored apples. Reduce heat to medium. Allow to boil for 10 mins. Meanwhile preheat the oven.  

2 After 10 minutes add cranberries and raisins. Allow the pot to boil for an additional 5 minutes. Turn off the heat, allow to stand and simmer for 10 minutes. You still want liquid remaining the pot. Do not allow to boil dry. This will help to create a sauce making the mixture moist but rich in flavor.

3 Prepare a baking tray. Drizzle on the base of the tray vanilla and honey. Add the pot of stewed apples cranberries and raisins. For the topping sprinkle, a tablespoon of brown sugar. Sprinkle the rolled oats, not heavy handily, but enough to cover the majority of the fruit, leaving some gaps. Then smash up a bunch of plain sugar biscuits and sprinkle over, with a flattering dusting. In places where gaps remain from the oats, fill these with crunchy biscuits. Drizzle in a zigzag motion the honey. Take the remainder of your orange and lemon and zest, and juice. Place in the oven for 20 minutes or until the edges are bubbling and rich.    

4 For the vanilla cream sauce. Trying different elements, I always like to make my own from scratch. Today I didn’t fancy venturing out into the wicked wind of the north. So, I used a can of ready-made vanilla cream, custard will work just the same. I warmed through in a small pan. Then added a sprinkle of All Spice, an additional splosh of vanilla essences and a spoonful of caramel sauce. It only takes a couple of minutes to warm through, in so doing, all the levels melt and blend into one heavenly rich sauce.

The next day I make this I will use my from scratch method and share.

Sharing a little bit a end of summer inspiration with you.

[capellavanryan]

I love blustery days. When the winds blow. Leaves rustle. And the shoreline’s bluest waters is enraged in fury. I love when you can hear another kind of music. The music of a wild soul blowing and howling. Forcing the world to bare witness to it’s inner pain. Releasing all its hurt.
