Monaco Street ...next add the Pastis!


So the snails are cooking and Alain pours in a glass or two - or three - of cognac. The recipe on the Taraf Goulamas website calls for pastis but the bottle on the table looks more like brandy to me.

The onions have to be added and later the tomatoes and whilst each stage of the dish is being cooked, the group tour around the market playing to us all - as in the smaller photo.

  1. I am wondering how they tasted, I tried only once, in a salad

  2. Sorry to say this is where the French and I do part, I do not think I could eat the little snails. Just past the cognac, merci.
