Now's the time to do it Cookie1 with this heat we are having.  Mine is on the menu for tomorrow night and I have googled that Kraft easy satay sauce recipe to try and I have all the ingredients for that whereas I would have to make a special trip out to get things for riv_mum's sauce. For anyone interested here it is -

1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter (I only have smooth but will add some chopped peanuts)
1/2 cup coconut milk (I'll be using some frozen leftovers)
1/4 cup water
2 tblspns sweet chilli sauce (using my TMX one)
2 tspns curry powder (might only use 1 tspn)
Combine everything in the TM bowl until smooth and heated through. Probably on 90o for a couple of minutes on soft speed?

Cookie1 how much curry powder do you use when you make this one please?

I'm back with information from ILB (we keep in touch via her blackberry).  At the vegan demo (for several families I believe) she made the following:-

Orange & Mango sorbet - no egg

Bread was the basic TM bread

Dips - Basil & cashew pesto from the EDC without the cheese &
        Guacamole

Salad - Beetroot

Soup - pumpkin with no cream and oil instead of butter

Main - Asian fish fillets (they consume fish)

Dessert - Bechamel vegan custard as posted above

She also took along some sugared almonds which were quickly devoured!

Maybe we should still all have a child in the house Cookie1 - they can get away with speaking their mind whereas it is just not the same coming from an adult.  Good on your DD. Wonder is she still does it  ???

That's a great effort MJ.  Will you do exactly the same lot of recipes for the dinner party or change some things?  Nice to try things in advance and have willing taste testers  ;) ;)

JulieO, did you have to cook the rolls longer because they were bigger?  I need to make some bigger ones too and next time I will try it with all white flour.  It seems to be a very versatile little recipe and if I had success, anyone can :P :P

Breakfast / Re: Maple and Cranberry Toasted Crunch

I don't normally eat this type of breakfast but last night I made a simple one (not using the TX) which I got from The Sydney Morning Herald Blog called Apple Granola and it was quite nice.

2 cups traditional rolled oats
1/4 cup sesame seeds
1/3 cup flaked or slivered almonds
3/4 cup apple juice mixed with a dash of vanilla
2/3 cup raisins or your preferred fruit - I used dried apricots and sultanas

Mix the oats, nuts and seeds together in a bowl with half a cup of the juice.  Mix the dried fruit with the remaining liquid in another bowl.  Spread the oat/nut/seed mix onto a sheet of lightly oiled foil in a large baking dish or on a baking tray.  Spritz with a little oil and bake at about 160o for about 30 minutes. It's important not to let it get too brown so give it a stir every 10-15 minutes.  Remove the baked mixture from the oven then mix it with the dried fruit and return to the oven for 10-15 minutes but don't let it get too brown.  Package in a glass container and dress up with Christmas ribbons. (it was obviously a gift giving idea).
I had to keep a fairly close eye on it as it seemed to be getting a bit brown and I wasn't sure how brown it should be. I only did the last step for about 8 minutes though. Maybe a lower temperature because of a fan forced oven would be more suitable.  It's amazing how you will eat something you made yourself but would never try the bought variety. I love the idea in a Christmas hamper.

Cherries in cordial, sounds great Andi - finally a cordial for adults only  ;D ;D ;D  I do love a cherry trifle.  I have had to start a book with all tips in it.   Recipes are easy enough to find but tips can pop up anywhere from forum members and I want to make sure I know where they are when I want them.  Keep those tips coming, thanks a lot.

Barbara, here in Australia we can buy a barbecue chicken already cooked in take-away food places. So a BBQ chicken means one that has already been cooked, roasted preferably but in this recipe you could also use a steamed chicken.

never listen to husband  ;))


  Got it, will remember that Roxy.  ;D ;D Glad someone tried it.  It is the only recipe I have posted without actually trying it first but felt that my consultant wouldn't have emailed it to me if it wasn't any good.

Isi, you will be pleased to know that I am very happy with these rolls.  I made 14 weighing 70g each and because my DH doesn't like grain bread, left the seeds out of the dough mixture.  I did put some on the top though.  They were so nice in fact, that after dinner I had one with jam and cream on it as well. Thanks for posting this easy recipe.

Chookie, anyone is welcome to answer question on this forum - all help is gratefully received.  My rolls look just like yours isi but the test will be in how light they are.  That is always my problem when making bread, it looks alright but is a bit on the heavy side.  Just taken them out of the oven so are too hot to test right now but I'll get back later on how they tasted.  Certainly is an easy method and I was delighted to see the dough poking it's head out through the hole after 45 minutes.  I even shut the kitchen off from the air conditioning and opened up the door and window to let some of our heat come in to make the job easier for the dough.
