This evening was spent in the gorgeous surrounds.......wrapped in the welcoming warmth......embraced by the beautiful company....... at MA the 2nd's!!
What better way to celebrate our precious friendship......the unity of sisterhood..... the stength of motherhood....and all the other roles we welcome......wife, daughter, sister, than to get together, open a bottle of french bubbles and share something spectacular from our (overworked) ovens!!
And on this little occasion......as our usual balmy & tropical climate is just beginning to enjoy it's first taste of winter......something warm and crusty and French!
And so to soak up the Bubbles we nibbled......tasted.....and then clean dived into this little taste sensation!
Let me introduce you to our...."Fromage Cob du Jour"
Once you have procured yourself a fresh, seasame seeded cob loaf...... cut away the top and tear the inside bread away into succulent, bite-size dippers.
Toss a cup of diced bacon and brown onion into a pan coated with Olive Oil over a moderate flame until the heady sizzling fills the house with the promise of comfort food.
Add to a 250g softened block of Creme Fraiche, a generous cup & a half of Mozzarella, a healthy cup of top-grade Tasty Cheese......and for that real French touch.......a cup and a half of fresh cream!
Toss the cheese menage a tois together with the bacon & onion symphony.....mix.....and spoon into the hollowed Cob!
Wrap loaf in foil and bake in a 180C oven for 45 minutes......remove foil and bake for another 10 minutes........toss bread dippers around baking tray and toast for a further 10 mins!
Place on a sturdy, white platter and stand back and admire!
Gather a gaggle of the most supportive friends....open a bottle of .... well we opted for 'Verve Clicquot' tonight .... and chat .... and sip .... and nibble .... and talk ..... and drink .... and dive in .... and clean out those cobwebs, Sister!!!
It's what life is all about!!
So honoured to share the Love here at Beautiful Interiors......
Thanks MA the 2nd........for another special night of Friendship,
Tonya!!
