"From Falling Cloudberries by Tessa Kiros. They don't look especially quick and easy to make but I think would be lovely served when you know you've got company coming for dinner. Not yet tried (so times are estimated) but look yummy!"

These were pretty good. I served these with fresh grated parmesan cheese and creme fresh. Were a good side to the poached Salmon I made this evening. Next time I think I'll add some kosher salt and pepper to them, to give them better seasoning. But besides being a little too bland for my personal taste, they have great potential concept wise to add your favorite herbs and seasonings to.
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
Aloha! I'm 29 years old and from the UK. My other half calls me his 1950's housewife because I just love to bake, preserve and cook in general! After studying catering at college I decided commercial cookery wasn't for me but I still like nothing more than discovering new dishes, throwing dinner parties and so on!
I work on the recruitment side of a quantity surveying consultancy about 25 miles north of London. I love my job. It's hard work but fast paced, challenging and my work day just flies by.
With regards to how I rate recipes, I try and keep it fair and to the system. I do my best to give no lower than 3 stars but will do on occasion if I made something as directed and it still ended up in the bin. I've never given 1 star but on occasion I'll leave no stars if I suspect something went horribly wrong. Most recipes get rated at 3/4 stars because 5 stars is reserved for spectacular recipes that become frequent users and a family favourite. Everyone has their own rating systems and that doesn't offend me. Rate my recipes as you see fit - I know what I like and what I don't and I'm here to fill my recipe book (filling anyone elses is merely an advantage), not to win a popularity competition or become chef of the year.
