Gougères

On Saturday evening we had some friends over for apéro (drinks and nibbles). I’d decided I was going to make some sausage rolls and some cheesy gougères, a kind of Anglo/french mix.

It was a really enjoyable evening chatting in both French and English, helping each other out when we got stuck on our vocabulary and pronunciation. It’s great though when you learn some new words and hear first hand how they are pronounced. And I have to say, the gougères were a great success, even though I think they were a little big, as were my sausage rolls. To drink, Brian served some very nice red Burgundy.

Below I’ve included a short video on the making of the gougères. Hope you give it a go, they are very moorish.
