StefanAVFC Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Feel like I've mastered my chicken and chorizo casserole recipe. Every time I make it, I tweak it a bit and having made it tonight it was the best it's ever been. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PompeyVillan Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I've just cooked the finest curried baked beans you'll ever taste. Fry an onion in oil until slightly softened. Throw in a couple of rashers of sliced bacon. Fry until onion is soft and bacon is cooked, not crispy. Add a lump of butter and clove of chopped garlic, fry for a 3 minutes. Add 1/2 tablespoon of tikka spices and 1/2 tablespoon of madras curry powder and fry for 2 minutes. Add a tin of baked beans. Add a tablespoon of water and a teaspoon of tomato purée. Heat gently without boiling and stir for a few minutes. The best accompaniment to a baked potato you could possibly imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted January 15, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted January 15, 2014 Cooking folks I'm cooking for the missus tomorrow night. Going to cook peri peri chicken and sweet potato mash. but need something else to accompany it. Any suggestions? I'd usually have broccoli and sweetcorn, but that's a bit boring. Have considered asparagus or green beans... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shillzz Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Sweet Potato is insanely sweet, so if it was me, then i'd want something to contrast that. i.e. something nice and refreshing. A salad I often make to go with indian food, which could work, would be the following: Finely chopped tomatoes, skins and inner shizzle removed. Finely, finely chopped onions. Lemon Juice. A good helping of seasoning. Coriander. Very simple, and nothing special at all, but it works nicely as a little palette cleanser. You could ofcourse sub in the king of herbs (Basil) for the Coriander if you're not a fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted January 15, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted January 15, 2014 Not bad, I was considering coleslaw as well but again thought it was a bit bland, but that salad would be a nice substitute. Although I would, of course, not be putting Onions in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shillzz Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Maybe try replacing the onions with some peppers, or whatever you tend to like eating. It could be a bit sparse with nothing else in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted January 15, 2014 Moderator Share Posted January 15, 2014 It's a rose-mantic dinner. There'll be no garlic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted January 15, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted January 15, 2014 Meh, there can be garlic. There'll be extra hot peri peri sauce so garlic will be no bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GarethRDR Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 There's a layer of vanilla frosting between the bottom two layers and chocolate fudge frosting between the top two layers. It was really moist, actually moister than I expected it to be, which was pleasant I always add saffron to my fondants This thread has now officially given me more erections than the Lovely Ladies one did.
