ReplyDeleteThanks for the vegetarian stew recipe.
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are lovely!!
Ricetta sfiziosa e leggera
ReplyDeleteThis is exactly the kind of dinner I love because it looks like you have put far more effort into it than you actually have. I have roasted cauliflower before, but pairing it with the spiced chicken, sweet cherry tomatoes and that tahini yoghurt sauce is what really caught my attention. The combination of cumin, coriander, smoked paprika and turmeric would make the whole kitchen smell wonderful while it is cooking, and I especially like the idea of stirring the spinach in at the end rather than making another pan dirty. I would definitely try this with a little extra chilli because I like my chicken with a bit of heat. The late summer flowers at the end were a lovely touch too. I have shared a new post on my blog as well, so I hope you will pop over when you have a moment.
ReplyDeleteThat looks delicious—oh, how I wish I could conjure it up right now so I could just sit down and eat. Thanks for the wonderful recipe! Hugs, Elke
