A week ago, we held our annual barbecue at Laurel Creek Conservation Area in Waterloo, Ontario. As usual, it was a very large gathering and we had family and friends from different parts of the world. The weather was wonderful and everyone, young and old, had a great afternoon. We found a shaded spot close to the beach where we setup our trusty charcoal grill.
The food was plentiful and scrumptious. We started off with an eggplant appetizer and slices of pita bread. For the main course, we grilled lamb chops and boneless chicken and served them with aromatic rice, Somali chutney, Somali salad, and grilled sweet corn on the cob.
We did not bring any dessert with us since the plan was to have everyone come to our house for tea, coffee and dessert. No, we did not prepare dessert ahead of time. We decided that we would prepare something that was delicious, quick, and easy, and we chose to bake a pineapple upside-down cake. Not only is it easy but it also looks very pretty and gives the impression that it was a lot of work. The cake was a hit and everyone was raving about it.
