It was a close one, with a clear winner and the second place spot tied between 2 recipes. As the tie-breaker, we decided we should aim for balance and avoid 2 meat dishes in 1 month, if possible. Thank you all for voting and welcome to our new friends!
Thus, our March schedule:
March 4 – Dukkah-Roasted Cauliflower (p. 224);
Dukkah (p. 81)
March 18 – Belgian Beef Stew with Beer & Spice Bread (p. 198);
Honey-spice Bread (p. 293)
A quick note on the twofer recipes. As we saw with the Steak and Fries for our most recent post, there are a few cross-referenced recipes. As it is, it will take us upwards of 3.5 years to complete the book, minus the pantry chapter, and even longer if we complete the recipes singly. So, the chance to double-up seems like a good one! This month, as with the steak, if you want to substitute or simply not make the accompanying honey-spice bread, you are welcome to do so!

Sounds good! Totally agree with you on the double-up recipes!
I’m still unable to leave comments on wordpress blogs, which is pretty frustrating!
I wonder why! Hopefully this issue will be resolved soon!

Looks great! Thanks for the clarification on the two-fer recipes; that’s the right way to go.

After reading through the recipe for Belgian Beef Stew with Beer & Spice Bread (p. 198); the Honey-spice Bread (p. 293) is part of the ingredients for the beef stew. I checked with my favorite baker in KL and he do not make it. Looks like I have to make bread, honey-spiced!

I love the idea of doubling up- while I do not want to rush through the book- it is so hard to see all the recipes I want to jump into!!

Totally agree with doubling up where the accompaniment makes sense!
Sounds like a delicious month and a potentially delicious meal 🙂

I agree, that’s a great idea if possible. Let me just say,
I made the spice bread yesterday, (I read the schedule wrong)
and it is really fantastic. I hope I have enough slices for the stew.

Ro, not that I ever doubted you, but what you said is utter truth. I only tried the batter and it was so good. The aromas from the oven right now are outstanding.

I’ve just made the awesome cauliflower and was pondering what it should look like and how to photograph it. DL has an album on Flickr and I found it there:

That was good, wasn’t it? Now I am looking forward to finding things to do with the left over dukkah. (David suggested using it in soup and rice – I think it would be delicious on top of a roasted carrot soup with a drizzle of hazelnut oil).

Thanks for this, Mardi. I was wondering if I’d understood the slicing/chopping directions correctly and thought it’d be nice to have a photo!
