Le Cochon Aveugle – photo blog

I’ve written about Le Cochon Aveugle before. I love it. Josh Overington is a genius. Here’s what we had this week when we visited. ( we went for the carte Blanche option)

Roasted pineapple, caramel sauce, Szechuan pepper, truffle ice cream, fresh truffle ( my favourite and a great way to end the meal )

Cook book challenge March 

So you might have noticed my attempt to blog the challenge each week is not because I failed at the challenge. Far from it. I’ve stuck to it every week but have failed at setting aside time to write about it so….. Here is A collection of photos of March’s challenge using Nigella Lawson Kitchen.


Week 1 lemony salmon with tomato cous cous 


Week 2 Spanish chicken, chorizo and potatoes 


Week 3 pasta with feta, spinach and pine nuts

Week 4 sweet potato supper

All of these were winners and easy to make. Some new mid week meals added to the list in the Frivolitea household!
