Last few weeks have been a very energy and time sucking weeks. This is why I was away from the blog. I have had a few exams to prepare for including IELTS, that I need for my next visa application. So I haven’t actually had no time to enjoy a properly cooked meal. I was
Ingredient: Butter
Caramelised Beetroot Tart Tatin
Beetroot must be on of my favourite root vegetable. I used to know only one recipe with beetroot, that is, the Ethiopian Potato, Beetroot, Tomato, Red Onion Salad.
