Yea, put the soup on and just check to see if your cacciatore is the same as the one that is already on there - it is an early posting.  I have it printed out to do but haven't gotten around to it yet.

Well done Kathy.  Once you start converting recipes you become so much more confident and the sky's the limit.  Don't forget to post anything you really love as we like to share these sorts of successes. Hope you wrote each step down as you went for next time - it is easy to forget to do this and then you are left wondering how long you did the different steps or if you need to decrease some times etc.

Main Dishes / Re: Lamb sauce for pasta
« on: June 08, 2009, 05:37:23 am »
Thought I'd try this one for lunch today Paul and it has different flavours to normal bolognaise sauce which was nice for a change. Looked at the lamb mince in the shops and that was too fatty for my liking so I bought some 4-1/4 chops and removed the meat to make my own lean mince - time consuming but I am a fat freak and only buy lean cuts. Thanks for the recipe - it has made it to my 'do again' file.

My mum also grew up on a farm on Yorke Peninsula Cookie1, the youngest of 14.  However, she wasn't your typical country cook like most are and apart from rice and bread and butter puddings, she was a dreadful scone maker (so was I until I got the TMX) and never made cakes or cookies either.  Makes you wonder about the weights our grandparents carried when you compare that with today and workplace safety measures which restrict the amount they can lift.  DH was a butcher and used to carry huge weights, of course this became impossible once he got MS and had to retire.  At times I have to physically lift him yet, in hospitals or with the distric nurses, they just stand there and don't know how to go about it as they are not allowed to do lifting.  He is only a little fellow thank goodness and so far my back is holding up.

Can someone tell me if these GF baking recipes can be used using normal flour for those of us who don't have gluten problems? e.g. this one, would it be plain or SR flour?

How are you feeling today ILB?  Lucky it is a public holiday to give you an extra day to rest. :-* :-*

Nice going Cookie1.  I've noted your changes on my print-out so that I have 2 for the price of 1 recipes ;D ;D   I don't know where I was when our mums were making this type of dessert - maybe my Mum didn't do those sorts of things :-)) :-)) :-))

Chelsea, there are discussions about recipe books in the Questions, Technical Issues etc section.  Is that what you were referring to?

Main Dishes / Re: Morrocan Lamb

Virgo Sandra, this is a great dish.  We had it for tea tonight using lamb backstraps - they seem expensive but it only cost me $10 as they are pure meat and the dish would feed 4 people.  Couscous was nice for a change too.  DH gave it his seal of approval and it has now gone into my recipe folder for future use.  Thanks for posting it -  did it exactly as you posted it apart from the fact I used a 425g tin of chick peas.  I hope Tenina sees this one as it would be a great addition to the new meat book.

Judy my oven is an Omega and it has a fan on all the time and then when you want fan forced it boosts up the speed of the fan. It blows  air out of the top of the oven. I queried it and was told it was normal. It's 5 years old in July.
Thanks for that Cookie1, maybe it is normal then ???  The forum was quiet today so I got stuck into tidying up the pantry and other cupboards.  I found an oven temperature gadget so now I can check the temperature next time I am doing cookies or whatever.

Judy, why don't you post the make and model, if you have it? We can do a bit of research on the Net to see if anyone else has that problem...
All I know about it MrSpock is that it is a Chef Select underbench electric fan forced oven, no model number or anything like that.  It isn't a huge problem, I'll just put up with it until I replace it but next one will be purchased from a retail outlet and not a clearance centre. I use my weber a lot so it isn't used much anyway. Thanks anyway for your offer of help.
