Permie group had a 'soup and movies' night and it was wildly successful - we had at least thirty people, possibly as many as forty, which is fairly unprecedented, particuarly on a cold Monday night in the middle of winter.
There were six soups: potato and leek, two pumpkins, a minestrone, a Chinese noodle, and mine. Which was a Spiced Moroccan Lentil and Carrot.
Look, I do things slightly differently, okay?
The potato and leek went first, but my lentil-and-carrot went second, although the fact that there were two pumpkin soups to choose from probably changed the game somewhat.
But they were all excellent soups and tasty. Good eating on those.
Some people baked home-made bread, other people brought bought bread, there was some gluten-free bread - bought and made - and we brought butter (well, lurpak) for people to spread with.
For my soup, I also had coriander, yoghurt, and lime to add of your own accord - and a few crisped kale leaves for a bit of textural contrast. It was pretty good - not as spicy as I hoped for, but I was low on cumin and the paprika was smokey, and maybe it's not supposed to be spiced spiced, y'know?
Anyway, an excellent night, good to see and meet lots of people. First meeting I've attended since I kind of dropped off the management committee (only 'kind of' because I'm still included in all the emails) and it was pretty good.
