Tuesday afternoon in the kitchen at Sam's Table! 🥧

The prep is well underway for tonight's Pie Carvery Night. Potatoes are being prepped for our creamy mash and double-cooked gastro chips in beef dripping, veg is being prepared and we're getting everything ready for another evening of good old-fashioned comfort food!

We've got a lovely few bookings in already, so it looks like we're in for a nice evening ❤️

And we've got a few changes coming to our Tuesday nights from next week too... but more on that tomorrow! 👀

Tonight it's all about the pies! 🥧

I'm really enjoying this part of preparing for our Christmas Day menu! ❤️🎄

I've been spending some time in the kitchen trying out different recipes, working on presentation and getting all those little details just right.

Today's little creation is our Prawn & Crayfish Cocktail, served in a scallop shell with homemade Marie Rose sauce, fresh salad and buttered homemade bread.

I'm still learning and experimenting as I go, but that's one of the things I love most about cooking. There's always something new to try and ways to improve.

A few more dishes to practise before the big day! 😊

Taking bookings for our Pie Carvery Night tomorrow 😊

Well, after hours in the kitchen, here it is… my homemade French Onion Soup! 🧅🧀

I've been working behind the scenes on our Christmas Day menu at Sam's Table, and this is one of the starters I've been practising.
And when I say homemade, I mean from scratch.

From roasting beef bones and vegetables to make my own rich beef stock, leaving it to simmer for hours, then slowly caramelising what felt like a mountain of onions!
Finished off with toasted French bread, plenty of Gruyère cheese and baked until lovely and golden.

It's certainly been a labour of love, but I've really enjoyed learning more about making proper stocks and building flavours from scratch.
Still a few little tweaks and plenty more practising to do before Christmas Day, but I'm really pleased with how this one has turned out! ❤️

What do we think? Any French onion soup fans out there? 🧅

You know you're getting old when you get ridiculously excited about a new kitchen gadget! 😂

Some people get excited about new clothes, shoes or handbags… me? I've got myself a new mandoline slicer and can't wait to try it out! 🤣

First job for my new toy is slicing onions as I'm practising my homemade French onion soup! 🧅

Hopefully the new gadget will mean fewer tears… although I'm not sure whether they'll be from the onions or me slicing a finger off! 😂

Anyone else get far too excited about new kitchen gadgets, or is it just me?
