Craving for Clafoutis

Now and then, the Husband would tell me how much he misses his mother's osso buco, cassoulet, creamed spinach, cookies, ice cream, insert-dish-name. No one does it like she does. I understand how he feels. Because I miss his mother's cherry clafoutis and today, I've been intensely craving for it.

The photo you see here was taken early last summer. The top-view shot of just a quarter of the dish was not meant to be "stylish", but simply because that was all that's left. And what'll I give just to have a portion of it now. 

In fact, back then I made some mental notes about making clafoutis in tropical countries (where cherries are either not available or available at a premium and not sweet at all). Apart from cherries, I think the clafoutis would work well with mango. In particular, Thai sweet lily mango that has not entirely ripened to the point of mushy; or Taiwanese mango which is sweet and able to hold its shape well despite the heat.

    briefly

    JL and S grew up in France and Malaysia respectively. They met while living in Singapore, stayed a year in the USA (Cambridge, MA) then the south of France, Malaysia, and are back again in the USA (New York, NY). 

    frenchinos at home is where we share some of our stories with friends, much like the living room, dine-in kitchen, or the timber-deck balcony which we've always wanted to have, which sounds most impossible where we live now. 

    Welcome and we're happy to have you here :)
