Satnam’s Birthday Dinner at the Kennedys
Andrew and Lisa kindly invited us to their house for my birthday dinner. Bless their souls.
Lisa is an excellent cook. She’s preparing a Niger Slater squid/lime dish here.
Ahhh, I think there few things more promising than a nicely set table.
Susan relaxes with Kathryn Kennedy while our hosts slave away.
The combination of squid, lime and herbs was divine.
Lisa also baked this utterly stunning focaccia (also Slater). It was outstanding!
The main was a Slater Kitchen Diaries lamb with chick pea mash. Super yummy. Lisa hand peeled each chick pea! This produced a wonderfully smooth mash.
The Kennedys provided a very tasty Shiraz from Stellenbosch: I loved it!
We brought a bottle of Kathryn Kennedy Lateral that I had brought over from California. One of our favourites which we had been saving for a special occasion.

Some candles went AWOL. Nigella’s luxurious Guinness cake.
