                  I thought I'd do something different today. As my wife works all weekend and I don't it's only fair that I treat her every now and then.

                  Today we had pork steaks with caramalised apples and onions. We also had the usual roasted potatoes and parsnips with boiled mixed veg. I like to cook anything pork in cider. The juices then make a very tasty gravy. I have in the past tried apple juice but it isn't the same.

                  I also made an apple and plum crumble for after. I'm no good at measuring ingredients so I tend to use up everything I have. I was not 100% happy with the way it came out but we still ate it. My wife liked hers. She said there was nothing wrong with it. I would have liked the fruit to have be softer. I also found the topping to be a bit dry and a bit too crumbly. I think the crumble layer may have been a bit thick. It looked alright when I did it. Good, bad or indifferent, we still have another 6/8 portions to eat.

                  I made my filling with: Apples, Plums, Sultanas, Sherry, Sugar, Nutmeg, Ginger.
                  I made my topping with Butter, Flour, Oats, Walnuts.

                  It kept me busy for a while at least.
