Leeky cheesy galletes
Hot goat man cheese was involved (e:joe,59060)
We rarely bake anything so it was a crap shoot on whether we were doing the dough right - but it was buttery and perfectly cooked.
Frying up the leeks
If you go by the recipe picture, we were supposed to spread the filling more and leave the potatoes exposed. This worked fine though. All the galettes got an egg wash.
Cheesy goat man goodness

British Bake Off and Chana Masala
The bake off has 12 contestants competing in a weekly elimination in three different baking contests. Inexplicably, they're also cooking in outdoor kitchens on the lawn of a giant British estate. The judges aren't mean, they hug the losers and the host Mary Berry says things like "Your sponge is perfectly moist! Bang on, pussy!"
You quickly come to love/hate most of the bakers real quick. Norm is the boring grandpa you love. Ian is the beardy one. Diana is the cheating grandma, and Chetna is just my absolute traumfrau. She is from India and always has the best sounding dishes (onion and pine nut rolls). She's also the most beautiful contestant, so I'm obsessed.
She has a website where she teaches you how to make all sorts of cakes and desserts but also Indian food.
Terry and I made her chana masala. Suprisingly it wasn't as hard I thought it was going to be. I always was afraid of cooking Indian spices but we followed the video and it turned out amazing.
Browning the onion with coriander, cumin seeds, salt, garam masala, bay leaves, cinnamon and cloves.

Cook until brown
Simmer chickpeas in the mix until soft.
Amazing. I was so sad we ate it all
