Delia Smith comes to Barcelona

The Complete Cookery Course by Delia Smith, a classic cookery book I picked up on a recent trip to the UK - only 9 quid at Amazon :)

Well, not literally, but while I was recently in England I picked up a copy of Delia Smith's Complete Cookery Course. Now I am back I have been drooling over the recipes. I tried out the recipe for French Onion Soup which was a hit - the secret is to add an obscene amount of butter when frying the onions.

Next on the list is more traditional english stuff: steak and kidney pudding, fruit pies, flat meat and two veg. I really need to figure out how to make a decent custard too. More attempts will follow soon, if only I could pull myself away from delicious catalan mondonguillas or botifarra.
