couscous merguez @ Oxford

Today I decided to cook a north African dish...the "couscous merguez". I choosed to cook this dish due to a good supplier! The shop is located in cowley road really near where I live. This guy is doing the best merguez!! So I decided to to cook the merguez with a couscous. I did with the most simplistic way. First cook the merguez on the pan, secondly add water in the pan. When the water boils add the semoula. You got a nice easy dish, cooked in a fast way!

Orange Souffle

Finally I cooked the dessert! I broke a golden rule...I cooked a dish for a second time! But this time I changed the ingredient and improve the recipe. I really wanted to have a better understanding of the "souffle science".

I decided to use more fresh ingredient for the dessert, that's why I chose orange zest. That was the first time that I used orange zest. I was worry about the result...the peel of an orange would give a terrific taste???

This time I was more carefull about the size and the proportion. I was lucky to have found some ramekin...it was the exact size for one person portion. This time I haven't add any egg yolk...only white eggs!







I was impressed by the result...Next time it will be better,
I promise!

waouw!

I am just back from the Friday night meal...And I am feeling good ! What a nice feeling to be back in Oxford and meet friend with good food! I spent an excellent Christmas and I have put on weight!!!
I will post later the dessert I cooked tonight (orange souffle!)
