What are you cooking today?

[mcmich]

DH is at work this evening, like all week day evenings. He did say he was going to put a candle in the out of date rock cakes he got from Coles on special.  All the children mine and steps will take me out for lunch this coming Sunday.

I steamed some salmon and vegies in the TM yesterday. I made some hollandaise sauce first (recipe from the EDC), which split and looked disgusting. I wasn't sure how to fix it, so poured it into a bowl while I got on with the salmon and vegies.
 I thought I would probably just put it back in the TM and blitz the heck out of it, but decided to ask Mr. Google, and discovered that if you drop an ice cube into the mess and give it a whisk you can rescue it.
 It really worked! It went from oily curds to sleek and glossy smooth sauce in about 2 seconds

A chocolate sour cream bundt cake for a birthday dinner. 

I really wanted to do the chocolate pistachio cake that cookie made a couple of pages ago but didn't have any pistachios.

Wow snappy, great cake. Which recipe did you use?

Does boiled eggs count? That is all the cooking I have done today!

I've made a mince meat stew to take into DH to see if he will eat something.  If he likes it I'll freeze small containers for him otherwise it will be my evening meal for the next few days.

made the steak and pepper pie filling I don't have a pie maker -yet!  and have never made a pie before so could someone please help
do I need to blind bake the short crust pastry first or can I assemble them with the base filling and puff pastry on top then cook?

[Yvette]

I never blind bake with my pie maker 

[astarra]

I have some beads for blind baking that have never been used - does that help?! 
I never bake blind, sure it will be fine.

Thanks I have those beads too stupid things aren't heavy enough the one time I used them my pastry puffed up.
I haven't bothered to blind bake them so hopefully they turn out )
