Interesting story from WWII, and some of the beer was "donated" by Strong's Brewery in Romsey, Hampshire, close to where I was brought up in Andover, where my Kilburn raised Dad (and WWI Royal Engineers Grandfather) serving in the 3rd County of London Yeomanry (Sharpshooters) Regiment in WWII met my Mum and married her December 20th 1941. https://zythophile.co.uk/2014/06/06...-to-fly-beer-to-the-d-day-troops-in-normandy/
Another match against the canaries, another lunch!! New potatoes roasted in sunflower oil, garlic and rosemary then topped with a fresh crab, shallot, red chilli and coriander salsa. Served with a rocket salad and drizzled with lime juice. Lovely. Hopefully washed down with 3 points shortly!!
Saturdays lunch. Huevas A La Flamenca. My favourite kind of dish. Garlic, onion, peas, green beans and serrano ham cooked in a plum tomato and smoked paprika sauce. Finished with 4 eggs cooked in the sauce, roasted red pepper, slices of chorizo and a sprinkle of flat-leaf parsley. Served in the pan along with garlic-infused griddled bread and a cold glass of lemonade. Bloody good, even if i do say so myself!!
