Guest Posted 24 October 2008 Posted 24 October 2008 After a disaster as a teenager (using bicarb instead of baking powder), I have shied away from baking. However, I couldn't resist the lure of the Toffee Ginger Cake with Fudgy Icing. They taste a lot better than they look. Yum yum!

They look lovely Lease, but please do not rub it in about baking - I love baking and am STILL waiting for my fooking oven to be delivered I have not had a oven facility for nearly two months now!

I would be onto someone like a shot if I had no oven. I'm feeling your anger for you. Cocksucking wankers.

On word = argos two words = nuff said They sent a letter an age ago saying it will be delivered on the 28th, I will be in B******n. Luckily my mother will be in situ to receive it providing they can be arsed to deliver it, if not THEN I will be kicking ass.
Guest Posted 3 December 2008 Posted 3 December 2008 Tonight I made samosas to go with the lovely curry I made. It was bloody lovely, only somebody keeps on eating all of the samosas that are left. I fear that there will be none left for tomorrow's lunch.
Durnerz Posted 3 December 2008 Posted 3 December 2008 Yesterday I made the worlds best vine roasted tomato soup with cheese croutons On tonights menu was the stir fry from Gordon Ramsays cookalong, the stuff of legends. Has been a thrilling couple of days in my kitchen.

Monk Posted 4 December 2008 Posted 4 December 2008 Somehow I missed this thread. I'm just getting back into cooking after a long layoff.... Couple of nights ago I made Fried Swordfish Steak over Teriyaki Stir Fried Vegetables with Coriander & Garlic Sweet Potato Mash. I'm also really enjoying making soups right now. I have a lot of time on my hands! I've made a really great Bean and Lentil Minestrone and yesterday good old Leek and Potato
Suffolk_fox Posted 4 December 2008 Posted 4 December 2008 I missed this thread too!! I cook a very good roast, my roast tatties are adored by friends and family alike. Very crisp and crunchy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside. I did a quick little pasta dish last night - delicious dishes don't have to be difficult! I won't insult your intelligence by saying how to cook the pasta!! Sauce Whack some pancetta or just ham/bacon into a frying pan Grate some cheese To a saucepan add a Tbsp of butter, melt it in a pan then take off heat Add 1 tbsp of flour, mix to a paste Add 2 cups of milk, bring to boil whisking all the while to keep smooth Add cheese Add more milk to preferred consistency, salt and pepper to taste. Throw in the pancetta, drain the pasta and add that too. Cook for a min or two then serve.
Suffolk_fox Posted 4 December 2008 Posted 4 December 2008 kitchens... cooking... ugghhh. I'm afraid this scotches any chance of you ever becoming a future Mrs SF. Sorry. Don't do anything stupid, and consider counselling.

Libertine Posted 2 March 2009 Posted 2 March 2009 Just churned out yet another of my classic sponges. Took a risk and slathered some honey in the middle. It paid off. It paid the **** off.
fox123 Posted 2 March 2009 Posted 2 March 2009 This thread is severely under-used. I love cooking, made an amazing Chicken Tikka Masala from scratch on Saturday, so easy to do and so tasty. Having Stir-fry tonight from yesterday's left over Chicken, nice.
MC Prussian Posted 2 March 2009 Posted 2 March 2009 Reading through recipes and hearing cooking stories has never been more fun. I do like to mix things together and favour seafood and pasta. Give me Sushi, prawn cocktail, fried salmon with cream sauce or baked perch with salad any day. That and broccoli. The only downside is that Lisa won't like it.
Guest Posted 18 March 2009 Posted 18 March 2009 Today I am trying my hand at leek and potato soup. It's cost less than £2 to put together, but seeing how much there is in the pan, I think I'm going to have to freeze some of it!! It appears to be easy to cook - no excuse not to eat healthily and cheaply during the credit crunch! Later I shall be making turkey kievs with herby butter fillings. Not sure whether to add some parmesan cheese to the crust. Decisions, decisions.....

But last night she made, mince meat (keema) curry poooooonjabi style, with chapati's and butter parontha's with a yogurt and salad side dish!! Mrs singh adds some spicy\masala peas and carrot to the dish to give it that extra flavour!!! I love cooking!!

Dr The Singh Posted 18 March 2009 Posted 18 March 2009 I hate you!!!!! Keema is my bloody favourite.... you lead the food life I want to. Keema, is one of my fav's, I love it spicy with rice, it goes great with spirits or wine!! I can never understand why people have beer with there curry, it just makes the mouth bitter!! No fooker in the pooonjab has there main meal with beer!!! Mrs Singh is a great cook (not as good as me, I have 16 Pirelli Stars), although she is dabbling in more western cuisine and adding the poooonjabi twang to it and I must say some of it is amazing!! You still want that bhaji recipe don't you, you may have to come around and watch mrs singh cook it, cus like a proper good cook, she don't do measurements!!
Monk Posted 18 March 2009 Posted 18 March 2009 I'm about to embark on a very low salt diet to help lower my blood pressure. Have just bought a low salt recipe book and there are some cracking recipes in there, not all of it is rabbit food suprisingly. On Sunday I got some cracking Alaskan Salmon off the geezer in Waitrose, pan fried it with fresh Oregano, garlic and balsamic vinegar. Had some sweet potato wedges and salad at the side YUM! I also make cracking pre football sausage bagguettes but you missed out on that Lisa!
