Flatbread and potato was a bit heavy on carb but very delicious. The salty crispy flatbread and soft creamy potatoes was irresistible. It didn’t need much else. Sometimes simple combinations work so well, I just need to remember these.
The gingerbread carrot scone was fluffy and nice. I like using joghurt and other fermented milk, the fizz makes it much fluffier. There wasn’t much carrot flavour, which is probably a good thing. What the carrots did do is make the scones healthy and beautiful. After all we eat with our eyes first!

Excellent tips on making salted caramel. There is no shortage of recipes and tips available but the best way to learn is to do it yourself and learn from mistakes. Personally I have never made any mistakes with salted caramel, I haven’t made it yet! When I do make it I will take careful note of Suzy’s 5 tips. Number 1 is candy thermometer – and I thought I could estimate and be fine! My mum never uses candy thermometer but I guess I am not my mum!
