We decided to stay in for New Years Eve and do some cooking for close friends and family.
Appetizers: stuffed Peppadew Peppers (again if you have never tried these you really must!) stuffed with goat cheese, garlic and thyme and topped with walnuts; Calamari with aioli and spicy mayo.
Soup Course: French Onion
Third course: Lobster Linguine with Poblano Crema.
Fourth Course: Rack of Lamb with Pesto Sauce and sauteed Green Beans.
Dessert: Fresh Cinnamon Sugar Doughnuts with Chocolate sauce.
These were fabulous! They are made from canned biscuits and deep fried, then covered with cinnamon sugar and served with chocolate sauce. The chocolate sauce is Nutella and whipping cream heated to the thickness you want (it gets thicker as it cools).
