Watching the Scottish cup final and getting ready for the champions league final by relaxing with some homemade pizza and some kriek. Perfect lazy Saturday.
This is possibly the best pizza I’ve ever made.

Skelpt Lug
Sometimes I buy beer because it’s been recommended to me. Sometimes because I’ve had a wee taste and want more. Sometimes I buy beer because I like the name. Guess which one this is!
Unfortunately it doesn’t quite live up to the billing. It’s a decent but slightly flat red ale. It’s, well, a bit dull. Still love the name though.
Roast Lamb with Lentils
I made this lamb dish a few weeks ago as a midweek meal then forgot to write down what I did. Now I can’t remember precisely enough to type it up properly! It was bloody delicious though. Roast lamb shoulder on a bed of puy lentils with pancetta, onion and cumin. I roasted the lamb with some garlic and rosemary. Then boiled the lentils according to the packet, drained them then chucked them into a frying pan with some onion that I fried until just brown and some crispy pancetta pieces. I seasoned the whole lot quite heavily and also added some cumin for flavour.
To be honest it probably doesn’t need a precisely measured recipe. It’s simple and tasted amazing.

Titanic hops
Titanic IPA from the Great Divide Brewing Company in Colorado. This is mega hoppy and delicious. It’s doing a great job of making me feel better after a work function last night!
