Lockdown Dinner Party

We miss our friends, we miss entertaining, we miss spontaneous evenings of fun. This lockdown has made us count our blessings and enjoy the simple things in life and it has made us realise how much we miss a simple dinner party.

So we decided to have one!

We chose a menu together and picked an evening and a time and a virtual host platform for our virtual dinner party.

What brilliant fun! It was interesting to see what slight changes we made to the recipe (button mushrooms in my Ragu), what we served it with (broccoli was obviously a firm favourite) and how we presented (pretty glasses for our tiramisu).

Cooking the same thing meant we could talk about the flavours, discuss what we thought would make a good addition, suggest any changes we would make and the most important…. would be make it again?

Beef Ragu. A slightly different translation for both.
