I am starting with this recipe. But thinking I need to adapt to what I have! So …
VEGAN M’HANNCHA
I would say that I am perhaps the world’s worst person for presenting food. Shambles and mess come to mind as adjectives! And this one was no exception – BUT – for a bit of ‘look what I have done!’ and a great taste this is worth a little effort (if you have someone who will appreciate it!). And vegan too! And there might be pumpkins going cheap next week?
BEER AND APPLE CHUTNEY
I am going to try this one. Looks good. Beer and apple chutney.
APPLE AND STRAWBERRY CRUMBLE
In the oven now – I managed to get some cheap jam strawberries at Draycott. I think I must have bought about 20kg this summer!
INGREDIENTS
Filling:
- 350g fresh or frozen strawberries
- 6 apples, peeled, cored and cut into medium & even-sized chunks Which I think is about the same??
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 80ml golden caster sugar or regular caster sugar
- Juice of one lemon
Crumble topping:
- 120g butter
- 120g flour
- 120g golden caster sugar
- 50 – 80g sliced almonds (raw)
CHRISTMAS CAKE -2
I am thinking that I might have to make smaller ones to post this year? Although one I posted last year never arrived!? So here is the recipe which I will base what I am going to make on! Its a 6″ cake tin. Recipe
CHRISTMAS CAKE
CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
Another basic recipe but again can be adapted with addition of nuts, etc.
EASY CHEESE STRAWS
Quick easy and can be modified! Basic recipe.
Add chopped rosemary, basil, oregano, chilli, pepper, dried red pepper, olives, onions, dried tomato. I might have a go at a variety tomorrow!
CHEESE SOUFFLE
A favourite my mum used to make – I will try one soon, I just need another supermarket delivery, collection. This one from the guardian
CAKES
I am looking at the moment – thinking about a basic cake mixture with ground nuts and something fragrant. I guess a lemon icing will always cover up mistakes? And also thinking about the moisture of fruit in a cake. And then it might be time to start a xmas cake soon.
