Spicy, Flavoursome Tomatoe Soup

This week has been terribly busy thus far. Am currently in Germany at my family's estate entertaining friends. Last night I had six friends round for dinner and poetry reading. The menu was quite elaborate. Here's a photograph of the first course.

Freshly made tomatoe soup with cumin, thyme, chilli, roasted garlic, red bell peppers and self-made West Indian jerk sauce. Second course: Sauteed spinach with orange and almonds.

Third course: Baked lamb with quinces, fresh figs and honey. Fourth course: Gazelles' Horns - plump, crescent-shaped pastries with orange scented almond paste. Happy cooking, my lovelies;-)
