Peanut soup

A recipe of peanut soup. It appealed to me because they also used bananas as an ingredient.
Chicken, peanuts, bananas and some red pepper, doesn't that sounds good?!
With the chicken broth you can make the soup thinner or thicker as you like.

Ingredients:

• Chicken, water, peanuts, banana, peanut butter, sereh(lemon grass), onion, spring onion, red pepper, bean sprouts, ginger syrup, salt, pepper

Whole roasted cauliflower

 A marinated and oven roasted cauliflower.  It looks amazing, like cutting a full roasted chicken.
The marinade tastes delicious. And you could also use the marinade as a dip with chips or vegetables.

The only drawback is that is has to go in the oven for a long time. Maybe next time I will just cut the cauliflower in smaller pieces and cook it in the oven with the marinade, potatoes and mince.
