Toulouse sausage and prawn dumplings with sweet chilli sauce and Thierry Puzelat gamay

Toulouse sausage and prawn dumplings with sweet chilli sauce and Thierry Puzelat gamay

Posted on January 20 2014 at 09:04

A pretty wild combination this week at a lovely wine bar, Magnum, we went to in Toulouse on Saturday night. The owner Jérôme’s wife, who originally came from Réunion, had made Chinese-style dumplings with the local Toulouse sausage and prawns served with a sweet chili sauce. Not the kind of thing I would normally go for but he sold it so persuasively we had to give it a go and it was fantastic.

Final memory from my Swedish trip - the charming plant pots you encounter all over Malmo which bizarrely include cavolo nero. Also some nice flowers. #presstrip. . . . #plants #kale #cavolonero #flowers #malmo #visit_skaneAnother brilliant Scandi fish dish at the @absolutvodka visitor centre or ‘Home’. Very simple - cod and shaved fennel with a creme fraiche, dill and lemon sauce. Am going to try to make this at home though it clearly won’t look as pretty. The centre also has a hugely clever audio visual presentation. . . . #fish #cod #lemon #scandistyle #instafood #foodstagram #presstriproApparently it’s not only going to rain all day in Bristol today but all WEEK So I’m just closing my eyes and thinking of the last few days in #Malmo. It was the first time I’d been there and I know it was a #presstrip but I loved it and can’t wait to go back. Think of it as Sweden’s Copenhagen. . . . #sea #water #morningsun #travelGorgeous apple orchards @kiviksmusteri where we had a go at chopping and crushing the apples ourselves to make the freshest imaginable apple juice. . . . #apples #applejuice #äpplemust #presstrip #visit_skane #visitsweden #alcoholfree Follow on Instagram
