Vinatics

Congratulations to Laura Ford who took advantage of some horrible wintery weather to cook up a storm for her husband with Roodeberg wines. He must have liked it because he’s now whisked her off to the sunnier climes of Bali but when she gets back, there’ll be a case of Roodeberg waiting for her. Here’s what she had to say:

“The cold weather this weekend was the perfect opportunity for some good red wine and some slow, unrushed, cooking.

My husband and I had a wonderful meal of Mushrooms in Cream (as per the picture above), followed by the Lamb Knuckles (YUMMY!!!) served with creamy mash potatoes, and finished with Dark Chocolate Truffles.

To make the Truffles was a little time consuming – but wow – so worth it.

Definitely back on diet today after all those calories!!!

Thanks for the great recipes.”

Well done Laura and hubby – hope you enjoy the wine.

Runner-up this month was Neill Adamson who sent us some pictures of some of his Sunday lunch. Thanks for cooking Neill, better luck next time!

“A cold, miserable, rainy day in Cape Town was the perfect occasion to hunker down with good friends, a roaring fire, some good red wine and a 7-hr slow-roasted lamb dish.

A great meal idea from Food24 and Vin-atics, prepped by some talented cooks. Yum.

Can’t wait for more awful days like it.”
