What's For Dinner #86 - the Apples, & Cider, & DONUTS, Oh MY! Edition - October 2022

It was a good day. Despite waking up to 31° temps this morning, I love having 60° weather at the end of October, especially on the weekend.

Decided on Lamb Bolognese after @linguafood mentioned it on one our mutual food boards using ground lamb last week.

Went with this recipe, and I even included anchovy paste (instead of whole anchovies). The food processor method gets the carrots, onion, and garlic all smushy and finely minced. Perfect for this recipe.

I used Aleppo pepper in place of the RPF, and some Silk & Spice red blend from World Market. But any medium-bodied red will do.

Served on pappardelle. Also minced up some fresh parsley as (1) I didn’t have fresh basil and (2) basil didn’t seem right with the lamb. And I considered the carrots, onions and parsley the veg for tonight’s meal. :wink:

This was SERIOUSLY good!

Wine as the side dish. And goodies from my workplace’s Reverse Trick or Treat on Friday as dessert, as many participated and I have some chocolate to get through. Poor me. :grin:
