One of our favourite treats is a takeaway from Santos, our village kebab shop. Providing you have enough diners, you can have a nice selection of deep fried comfort food to share. It was our turn to cook last night, so we decided to try to recreate a Santos takeaway. To help us with this, we have a new kitchen gadget called an Actifry.

The actifry cooks using hot air and tiny amounts of oil for the chips. We put chicken wings in the top tray which cooked beautifully. Fish nuggets, calamari and prawns cooked in the oven while the actifry worked its magic.

Meanwhile, Emily was keeping tabs on the building work that’s going on at Grütschalp across the valley.

We ended up with a pretty good meal. The chips and wings were better than we get from Santos, and everything else was a perfectly acceptable substitute. Emily was victorious at yahtzee.

The forecast for today was terrible, so we didn’t plan to do much more than our daily trip to the Co-op. Better weather is expected tomorrow.
