A West Cork Summer
Let’s celebrate the summer with our special publication “A West Cork Summer”.
Hopefully we will have a well deserved and sustained period of high pressure where we can enjoy all the good things our region has to offer. From superb and dramatic scenery to wonderful boat trips exploring our islands or whale watching, fishing to cycling, walking, golfing and much more.
Apart from activities we have some great museums and heritage sites which will appeal to history lovers.
Our region has some wonderful, independent shops to suit book lovers, arts and crafts and textiles. It is a real pleasure to browse and select a memento from this fantastic region.
As regards music most of the bars offer entertainment over the summer months so a great evening is assured. Most of the bars have the entertainment on their social channels so it is easy to find something that suits.
West Cork has a whole host of wonderful eateries so you are sure to find something that appeals to you. We are known for our quality meats and fresh fish caught from pristine seas.
We hope you enjoy your summertime in West Cork!

Butter Poached Hake with Spinach and Basil Puree, and Roasted Courgette and Aubergine
Perfect for those warm summer nights (when we get them). This dish is light, herby and satisfying every time. Ideal for when you don’t have the time to spend cooking, or don’t want to heat up the kitchen too much, but you still want a delicious dinner.

Lemon Asparagus Risotto
This dish, lemon asparagus risotto, is a beautiful use of seasonal asparagus, and leeks, the creaminess of the rice as it cooks down slowly. The lemon cuts through that richness, and allows the earthiness of the vegetables to shine. Combined with the bite of the cheese crisp, this creates a textural variation that makes every bite a new experience.
Note: Parmesan contains rennet, so be sure to check the label to make sure that it says suitable or vegetarians, or alternatively you can use a semi hard cheese like Gouda for a similar experience.

Pesto and Puff Pastry Trees
Delicate, flaky layers of golden puff pastry filled with a rich, aromatic pesto spread make for a stunning and delicious pesto and puff pastry trees. Each pastry is brushed with a light egg wash for extra shine and topped with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan and a few toasted pine nuts for added crunch. The vibrant green of the pesto, made with fresh basil, garlic, and Parmesan, contrasts beautifully with the warm, crisp pastry shell. Serve these savory bites warm from the oven, garnished with a few fresh basil leaves for a pop of color, making an elegant, crowd-pleasing appetizer for any gathering.
Desserts

Burnt orange, Strawberry, raspberry & white chocolate panna cotta
Panna Cotta (translated from the Italian means cooked cream) or in our case it will be a cream set with gelatin, we want the cream to remain soft, unlike other gelatin-set desserts which go hard, this is easily flavoured with your favourite ingredients like coffee, alcohol, chocolate and fruits.
