What are you cooking today?

[cookie1]

You have been busy Chookie. I mixed my Yudane with the milk in my last mix. I couldn’t be bothered tearing it into small bits and I was getting it all over myself.
We gave a third to DD’s best friend and she loved it. I think she shared it with her family so I must do an entire mix for them. I will check which they prefer, the whole meal or the plain.
It’s going to be warm today so I have my starters out and fed.

Yesrerday I made a Classic loaf and some Choc Chip biscuits, I also did the Mango and Macadamie ice cream from Tenina. It was very nice.
My rye starter is not happy. I am in the process if re generating it.

I have had my SD starter in the fridge or 2 weeks.  Took it out this morning and fed it, then madeSD crumpets.
Made Bircher museli for next 3 mornings.

I made a Tenina Rye Bread today. It’s not a SD. It’s very nice.


This is the Mango and Macadamia icecream from Tenina.

Great looking bread Cookie.

Looks good Cookie.  Not much cooking today.

I cooked my rye SD that had been in the fridge overnight. I used my resurrected rye starter. It seems happier and healthier now.

I made some Lemon and Blueberry cakes today. I did them in a fancy tin, but obviously didn’t grease it enough. They still taste nice even broken up.

Yesterday made 3 bread sticks, Mango fluff, garlic butter.  For lunch 2 massive prawns each. With Tortillas and salad.
Today Almond Crackle biscuits and ginger surprise biscuit.

Gosh you have been busy Chookie. No cooking here.https://thermofun.com/bacon-ranch-dip/  Yesterday I made a Bacon Ranch dip from Thermofun to take out with us.

Cookie, that dip looks very tasty.
Made RTE sweet potato fondue.  Think I would double the topping next time. Will report back when visitors have sampled it. 
Added Molasses to the ginger nut biscuits.  Certainly a bit different.

Can't seem to go wrong with RTE recipes, she gets lots of flavour into her meals.  I made her fish curry a couple of weeks ago, reducing the chilli etc to our tastes as recommended and it was so good.

I agree JulieO, I love her recipes.

The roasted sweet potato recipe from RTE was very popular, and delicious. The topping of walnuts, butter and maple syrup was ample. I strongly recommend it. I didn’t do the second stage of baking in chicken stock.
I have lots of cooked silverbeet left over.  Will be experimenting. Also have just seen a recipe for using the woody ends of asparagus.

Chow Mein for dinner tonight, a beef casserole for the freezer and Belgium Lemon Teacake using apples instead of lemon butter.
