What is your favourite recipe?

...but but but, one that is cooked from scratch with all natural ingredients - i.e no packet flavour enhancers/gravy mixes, such as bovril etc.

Oh Azz, impossible to narrow it down to one! Shrimp Creole, Ham and Cabbage for two. Yes, all from scratch, all natural ingredients.

Re: What is your favourite recipe?

No such thing as a favourite-how could one decide when there is a world of cookery out there?

Make stock,think about the flavours of each ingredient and then no need for flavour enhancers.

I think that tv progammes hacking on and on about `seasoning` ie smothering flavour with salt are just spouting a myth that results from damaged taste buds

Lobster straight out the sea like ive just eaten yum yum

Re: What is your favourite recipe?

I agree, Cassie, that is incomparable.

Re: What is your favourite recipe?

I just love this thai-style soup;

2 chicken filets cut into small bite size chunks and marinated in the juice
of 1 lime
1 green pepper cut into bite size chunks
5-6 spring onions (chopped)
2-3 cloves of garlic (finely chopped)
1 red chili (finely chopped)
1 (rather large) chunk of fresh ginger (finely chopped)
1 cube chickenstock (sorry)
5 dl water
1 bx coconut milk

Fry the vegs, garlic, chili & ginger in a little oil until soft. Add water, cube and cocnut milk. Cook for 5 minutes. Add the chicken and lime - cook for 5 more minutes. Serve immediately.

Sounds nice Anna! Wonder if leaving out the cube would be ok

Re: What is your favourite recipe?

Sure, Azz, use chicken stock (preferably home made or organic) instead of the water and cube.
