Gemmill 44904 Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 Potato pile up? They do that at the Northern Rock canteen. Potato waffles, chips and wedges I think it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44904 Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 I'm about to make Nigella pasta risotto with peas and pancetta. Another recipe that'll only take 15 minutes to make. Will report back with results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44904 Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 Aye it's ridiculous man. People get it and just ladle gravy over the top and that's their dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44904 Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 That pasta risotto was class. Nigella is in danger of overtaking Jamie as the object of my kitchen affections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 4725 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Got all the ingredients for a nice beef casserole in the slow cooker. Any great reccomendations for the juice / stock part before I resort to the usual water and cube etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 21930 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 dunno about you lot but as the cold weather comes in every meal has to be hot. morning muesli has walked for porridge. lunch time salads and wraps are to be replaced by soups and other hot dishes. comfort food all the way.

Dr Gloom 21930 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 this weather has given me a real craving for a traditional english desert with custard. might stew some apples for a crumble later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 4725 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Bought the first box of cornflakes in years yesterday and tried this morning. Definitely not the same as they used to make. Flakes are so light weight and plasticy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I made it on Sunday but ate it last night with some cous cous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
