So on the Left Coast in Yank Land it's about 04:40? Well it's 21:40 here and I'm smashed!
I had some you beaut grandiose plans and had prepped a few things, but unfortunately the family put a kibosh on most of what I had planned. So I improvised. The family had arranged a late lunch at a local cafe for us fathers as it's Father's Day here. So Happy Father's Day to all you dad's out there.
I started the day with some simple homemade spiced beef sausages that my mum had made out on the farm. And I rubbed a bit of lamb back strap with some EVOO and seasoned it well with some sea salt and fresh cracked pepper. I served it up with some chimchuri sauce and it made for a great
Late breakfast.
After enjoying a late lunch, no one felt like eating anything....so I made a roasted Pumpkin and Sweet Potato Soup. All on the Weber!
I was inspired by the DO I saw that Weber has in Europe and cobbled together my own version. And it worked a treat. While I was roasting the pumpkin and sweet potato indirect on the grille, the base for the soup was constructed in the middle of the kettle on direct heat.
The pictures will tell the story.
This will be served with a toasted cibiatta bread.
Life is good.
