Essentially this is a lot of cooked and very well seasoned vegetables mixed into an egg and chickpea flour based batter then baked until firm. You could change up the veg, add a ton more spice - …
I make this or a variation of it every week. I tend to cook it in a 1lb loaf tin, because I have an old Hovis one and it amuses me but I have doubled it and baked it in a 2lb tin. I like this recipe because it's quick to mix up. Tip: grease …
Not cornbread, that's a different animal and made of cornmeal which is too high carb for me. No, this is bread made with corn in it, but it is very tasty! I did add some sweetcorn extract, because I had it, but this is not necessary. 4 fresh baby corn cobs (4g carbs) 250ml hot …
I even remember making this in 2008. I remember the taste, and how delicious it was. I'm glad I found the recipe again! I think it was a BBC Good Food one, hence the posh bits. 🙂 Ingredients1 tbsp sunflower oil (I used smoked olive oil)200g smoked streaky bacon , preferably in one piece, skinned …
This is a recipe from way back in 2004 from my friend Alice. It was wonderful - so this is what I wrote back then. Yes it's in cups. [time goes backwards] I have been waiting all week to make this and finally found the time this morning at 6.30. 1 1/2 cups plain flour1 …
This is not the full, traditional recipe, but it's what I made when I really wanted a small loaf of bread to go with soup, and also wanted that particular Cypriot flavour. For the full recipe go here. Mastic is probably not something many people associate with food, more than likely people think it's to …
After watching Choki on YouTube, I had quiche on the brain. It's not often something I think about, but when I saw what she made, it wouldn't go away. (See her video here, quiche at 11:06) I had a large chunk of pecorino dolce to use up before it took over the fridge, so that …
Oops. I had forgotten about the legendary Sikh hospitality, so when I took these homemade rose and coconut biscuits over to welcome our new neighbours, as they seem fully moved in now, I came back with an enormous chunk of birthday cake and a box of chocolates! That was not my aim at all, but …
I know, I know, flour pie sounds distinctly uninspiring but stay with me. A few months back I saw this recipe on Instagram, and it caught my eye. It just looked so wholesome and fresh! I made it, and it was. A lovely way to use up greens, in a very non boring way. I …
The cakes themselves are not sad, but the mango I found in my voluminous fruit/veg stand was. All bruised and forlorn on one side, bless it. I put it out of its misery quickly, peeled it and chopped all the usable flesh into small, fragrant, sticky pieces. It was early in the morning, and I …
