In instances of quarantine, isolation, social distancing and lockdowns, Luise and I discovered ourselves speaking about if there was one thing we might do to convey us all a little bit nearer collectively. There are lots of optimistic and artistic issues taking place on social media in the mean time – dwelling concert events, fitness center courses and training initiatives – and one quite simple factor we realized we might do is gathering round a meal. So let’s cook dinner collectively this weekend!

Our thought is that we are going to cook dinner this Cauli “Fish” & Chips recipe tomorrow (Saturday 28 March) afternoon and invite you to do the identical. We are going to share step-by-step images and movies on my instagram story, maybe with some assist from the children in the event that they play alongside. I will put up a query field on one of many tales the place we will reply your questions concerning the recipe and in addition chat about excessive and low. And should you tag us in your cooking images, we’ll share them (perhaps we might additionally put up them on right here later?). The thesis is that we are going to all really feel a little bit extra related realizing that we’re sharing the identical dinner this weekend. Is it a corny thought? Enjoyable?! Tell us what you suppose in a remark. Or if in case you have any questions that we must always reply tomorrow. We do not know precisely how and if it will work. Worst case we would be the solely ones cooking this tomorrow. However then no less than we now have made dinner 🙂
It will be simpler to cook dinner it as an instagram dwell broadcast however I actually discover that a little bit too scary. And I can not even think about all of the bloopers that might occur throughout a one hour broadcast with three youngsters within the kitchen (“daddy, I must go to the toilet” “daddy, Noah is drawing on the ground once more” “daddy, I squeezed lemon into my eye!” “daddy, take a look at meeeee”).
Since we’re all in several time zones it is not going to be a superbly synchronized dinner, however we’ll reserve it in my instagram spotlight so you may take part at any time.

We selected this Cauli “Fish” and Chips recipe from one in all our books. It’s a actually good household recipe that we all know is cherished by many however maybe not cooked typically sufficient as a result of, in all honesty, it’s a liiiittle bit fiddly. It’s worthwhile to chop, grate, slice, fry, form, bake and stir. So we now have simplified the recipe a little bit bit, eliminated a number of substances and made the tactic simpler. It’s a comforting meal, it’s straightforward to adapt to what you might have at dwelling, and have no bizarre flavors (good with youngsters). 

The unique recipe is from our e-book Green Kitchen at Residence. Although we share it right here, we hope that you just nonetheless take into account supporting our work and our books. It’s a lot appreciated in instances like these.

Regardless should you cook dinner this with us tomorrow or reserve it for an additional day, we hope you’re going to find it irresistible as a lot as we do. We now have related with so a lot of you on this web site and it’s a good instance that regardless if you’re dwelling alone or with your loved ones, in an residence in Hong Kong, a home in Perth, New York or Stockholm we will all join round good meals right here. And we’re ceaselessly grateful to your participation in that.
