Sarah cooked a huge feast of delights today at our Summer Aga class.
The recipes were put together with picnics, family celebrations and parties in mind.
Quick, easy and innovative.
We discussed how to make ahead of time, how to transport everything and then assemble them at the picnic.
As ever Sarah was full of her usual top tips and answered a wide variety of questions from Aga owners.
All the dishes used the Aga in a different way, so the morning was spent roasting, baking, grilling, wok-ing (!?), simmering, as well as Sarah showing us things the Aga could do that we'd never thought of such as the ironing and making yoghurt.
After the demonstration we enjoyed a delicious tasting lunch of all the food cooked, I didn't quite manage to take photographs of it all, but here is a selection.
Above is a gorgeous Halloumi Salad
A perfect 6" Pork Pie, made with the hot pastry method.
This was the best rice salad I have ever tasted, a delicious dressing, apricots, almonds and more!
Monkfish kebabs on a lovely Portmeirion dish, made especially for Aga, that can be hung on the runners inside the oven.
Pudding was the stunning chocolate cake, covered in whipped cream and fruit that can be seen towards the top of this post. Perfect with coffee.
A great day ..... Sarah will be back on Friday 29 November for Christmas Aga.
