Not such a stunning sunset from Rakino... compared with the previous few nights...but OK.
While the sun was setting, I cooked a delicious dinner for us.
I had a little lamb rump in the freezer and still had plenty of vege in the fridge.
First heat oven to 200C
Then in an oven proof pan I sauteed
In 1 tablespoon Olive oil
1 onion peeled and sliced
1 kumara peeled and sliced
1 swede peeled and sliced
Add one tomato sliced
Season with S & P
Cook till al dente
Meanwhile
Prepare about 8 brussel sprouts cut in half
Season lamp rump with salt and freshly ground black pepper
And in another pan sear the lamb on all sides
Add Sprouts and Lamb to pan
Into oven should take about 20 minutes
Remove let Lamb rest about 5 minutes
Serve sliced Lamb on bed of roast vege.
Yum!
Next day Pizza I thought
I bought some yellow tomatoes
Yeeess... OK but lacking in real tomato flavour
In fact funnily enough when I glance at them I think Pineapple... then get a shock when I eat and then have a savoury taste.
But enough about me
A Pizza Bianco base I think
In fact this is a Yellow Pizza with some browned onion, red bell pepper and a green chili confetti.
Very nice for a change
For the extra protein
One side had some cold chicken pour moi
And for my loved one smoked salmon
I have a foolproof pizza dough, Have a look at this post all instructions there
For the topping
Sour cream
The Confetti
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion sliced
1 red pepper sliced1 green chili sliced
Sea salt and pepper
2 yellow tomatoes in thick slices
Extra Virgin Olive oil
Sea Salt and Freshly ground black pepper
Mozzarella grated.
Fresh Basil if you have some
Caramelize the sliced onion in olive oil
Add red pepper and chili to pan
Season
Saute about 4 minutes
Set aside
Place the prepared dough in your pizza pan or just a baking sheet
Spread the base with sour cream
Sprinkle the confetti over the sour cream
Place tomatoes on top
Season S & P
Sprinkle with Extra Virgin Olive oil
Pop into a hot oven about 10 minutes to get those tomatoes started
Take out and I placed the chicken on one side and smoked salmon on the other
Smothered them with Grated cheese
If you have basil, garnish
Back into oven about 10- 15 minutes
Excellent
