Channeling Keith Floyd!

CHEFFERY.

Yesterday was thanksgiving, so as is my tradition we went and ate what the Pilgrims ate: Indian food, cooked by someone else. We went to an Indian restaurant with friends.

Today I decided to cook Keith "buy the best ingredients you can, and do as little as possible to them" Floyd style.

So we had:

Roast beef (buy meat: rub with garlic powder, salt, pepper, rosemary. Roast in pan on bed of sliced onion rounds until thermometer says medium-rare. Slice)
Mashed potatoes (Potatoes: peel, boil, drain, salt, butter, pepper, milk, mash, serve)
A friend's homemade Carmenère (open, serve)
Pumpkin pie (from local market) with whipped cream (from a can)

Truly delicious, very very simple.
