There were a mix of peeps from all walks of life there -
beautiful salon people - retail people - new mom's - air plane people
entertainers - singers - belly dancers - and all kinds of great people
that all ended up getting to know each other and being new face book
friends etc. . . . . this is one of my favorite things that happen at a Diva Dinner!!
And of course the amazing food!! that it is all based around!!
the smells the tastes - the laughter and jokes and stories etc....
and everyone loves my assistant Maddess!!!
Here is a shot or two of some of the dishes I made last night
This was the Australian Lamb slow cooked in yogurt and coriander with
a touch of cardamom and the diva blend!!
Served over wok tossed samba rice from Sri Lanka with popped mustard seeds and ghee!
The Desert of course!! I am usually not great at deserts unless it is something I can throw together and be really creative and learn as I go sort of speak...I took one of my old favorites from Australia - sticky date cake and instead of making it with flour and butter - because so many people are dairy free and gluten free - I made it with a little bit of ghee and coconut flour and it was just so light and delish !!! For the topping which turned out a bit darker than I wanted was preserved ginger and lemon rind slow cooked in coconut trickle - total yumness!! crazy good and served it over a slice of star fruit....
have a look - see what you think....
