Got a sudden urge to make potato and leek soup the other day and… this is what happened. For a first time effort it turned out pretty damn good (if I say so myself), total comfort food for a wet wintry week. Have been trying to keep Azahar’s Kitchen a bit more up to date so you can actually find the recipe for this up and ready to try yourself.

I don’t know why but it has been QUITE A WHILE since I updated Azahar’s Kitchen. I caught up with a couple of recipes last month and was shocked to see that previous updates had stopped over a year before that. Oops. It’s not like I’m not cooking stuff all the time but these days I often share my homecooking dishes on Instagram and then I guess forget about uploading them to the blog.
Anyhow with today being cold and drizzly, I felt the need for some comfort food and immediately thought of one of my favourite standbys – stroganoff – and realised that I had never published the recipe in spite of making it a gazillion times over the past couple of years. And so here it is! The original one I made – a mushroom stroganoff. Along with a few other variations…

Since coming across this guy’s vid on Instagram that has gone totally viral I immediately wanted to try it. And so I have, at least four times with various ingredients, sticking to savoury. Limited to the airfryer I had to go for mini versions and/or bake them in batches. Which is fine as they need to cool off before you flip them. But man, these are so fun and easy to make and also crazy delicious to eat. Who doesn’t love biting into a crispy-baked pastry base topped with fabulousness? Try it!

I have never prepared and cooked white asparagus before so when I saw some this week at the market winking at me I thought I would give it a go. First thing is you have to peel these guys and then… well, I opted to just toss them in olive oil with s&p and some mixed herbs and give them the ol’ airfryer treatment. And they were just lovely . Made some crispy fried boneless free range chicken thighs too, served with my spicy salsa az. Not sure if I’d go out of my way to buy white asparagus again. What do you think?

Today turned into a Stay At Home Day, which was fine by me. Nothing much planned, not much to do other than the usual (photo editing, updating Sevilla Tapas, social media, etc)… and so I decided to make biscuits. Because it’s cool enough now (only 27º!) to put the oven on. This time I experimented with my basic baking soda biscuit recipe and added grated manchego cheese to half of the dough. And omg they were good, both versions. The cheesy ones didn’t actually need any butter added but, you know, what the heck. How’s your Tuesday going?
