Busy weekend

Went to L'Ecrivain on Thursday as a prelude to long weekend, as always food was great, menu suited me more than San, I loved the charred raw mackeral, she didn't.  Great bottle of "Punto Final" Renacer Malbec.  Pints in D 'n' N before and a pint on way to the bus in Doyle's

It was the son-in-law-ish's last day in Ireland after the baby was born, so he wanted steak and garlic potatoes, salmon for A, did that Good Friday, butternut squash risotto (with pork steak for us, salmon again for her) on Saturday.  Sunday was a great success.  Made curry:

Did a dal, spiced potatoes, butternut squash, spinach and courgette curry, pork, shallot and tomato curry, mushroom / cashew biryani and the winner fab chapati.  (Google spell check thinks chapati should be apathetic - how wrong could they be)

Chapati
My chapatis have always been rubbish, hard, brittle and flat.  So, as I was again making a curry, I did a bit of research and hit here - absolutely perfect chapatis

Soft, fluffy, nicely charred, tasted lovely, like rice, stir fry noodles and pizza dough in the past, that took me ages to get right, I just needed a bit of help and clear simple instructions and now am sooooo happy

Last day of long weekend, will probably just eat the left overs, but have a bit of the risotto (maybe supli) and a bit of steak left, so not sure yet.  Weather shocking, so not going anywhere
