Week 2 - Day 5 Dinner at the flat


On Friday night the instructors entertained the Lasham South team with bangers and mash followed by the star attraction, Gordon's legendary Tiramisu.

Gordon may be a culinary genius when it comes to making Tiramisu, but he didn't cover himself in glory when shopping for the ingredients.

Failing to find sherry he thought an appropriate alternative would be kiwifruit cordial. 20% on the label referred to the juice content rather alcohol content. I suspect the bright green colour was really what attracted his attention.

However it was his choice of eggs that was most entertaining. The first clue ought to have been the fact that the eggshells were covered in butter but it was only when Gordon tried to crack open the first egg that the truth dawned. He had bought a dozen hard boiled eggs!

Fortunately Toya came to the rescue with fresh eggs and home made moscatel.

The meal was enjoyed by all and was a great success. Many thanks to Morag and Merv for organising.
