Simplicity

Marinated some braising steak in oil, red wine vinegar, garlic, thyme and onion. Then after several hours coated the beef in seasoned flour then browned it before adding beef stock, whole potatoes and the remainder of the marinade.
Brought to a boil, then transferred to pot to braise for a couple of hours.
After which I dropped in some dumplings. Cooked for twenty minutes then served up in soup bowls.
Simple and wonderful.

For pudding leftover squares of last night's ginger sponge cake.
Which, by the way, was gorgeous. Rich, light and spicy served with a lemon custard.
Last night's dinner was one of the best.
Marjoram chops.
Pork chops, red wine vinegar, brown sugar, marjoram, tinned tomatoes, seasoning. Cooked slowly for 90 minutes then served with a Sweet Potato and White Potato mash.
