    I will spend the afternoon at friend who likes cooking and is a new dad. Every couple of months we take some time to make batch meals to fill up their freezer. We will attempt cassoulet for the first time.

    While the cassoulet is in the oven we will also do snert for the freezer.

    If there is time we will make a soup out of the leftover celeriac from the snert to have a starter tonight and for them to eat tomorrow.

    It's on the stove right now, had 5oz of 93/7 ground beef left over the other night, so cooking that up with 4 skinless chicken legs and making a nice pot of spaghetti sauce. Not sure if I'll make ribbon noodle zucchini to go with it, or elbow mac, but either way, the house smells like heaven right now! ;)

    This is the rosti recipe I use. I pre-cooked the potatoes pricked with a fork (to allow steam to escape) in the microwave for a few minutes instead of parboiling.

    Roasted veggies with pork loin roast. Yum.

    Come on over @weatherking2019. Though I have to say that kakiage is a lot of work. I made them in advance and plan to warm/crisp them up in the air fryer. Not sure it will be as successful as deep frying at the last minute, but it makes hosting logistically a lot easier.

    Dinner for a guest. Kakiage was made a few hours in advance and crisped up in the air fryer to dip in miso soup. Second course of roll your own California rolls. We've got cucumber, green onion, tamagoyaki, crab sticks, avocado, pickled daikon, nori sheets. Dessert was bitterkoekjes (=dutch almond macaroons) dipped in amaretto.
