Re: What are you having for lunch/dinner?
About an hour ago I browned four nice little shoulder shanks and bunged 'em in the crock pot with some lamb stock. They will sit there nicely doing their thing until tonight when will be served with mash and assorted veggies, followed by a slice of home made custard tart.

Re: What are you having for lunch/dinner?
Im going to ruin all the diets now...You know that left over advocaat you have from Christmas? well have you ever thought of making a cake with it?
ok here goes..you need
250ml of sunflower oil,
250grms of sugar
5 eggs,
250grms flour
15grms (3tsp) baking powder and 200 mls of advocaat.
Mix the oil sugar and eggs to a creamy mass, then set the mixer to a slow speed and pour the advocaat in slowly mixing all the time.
having sieved the flour and baking powder into a sperate bowl add this slowly to the egg advocaat mix and mix until its a creamy yellow mass.
It should look like thickish custard by this stage...
Pour the mix into a greased 22cm cake tin and put it in the bottom of a med oven 160c for hotair or 180c for normal electric oven for 50 mins-1hr cool for 10 mins..Enjoy

Re: What are you having for lunch/dinner?
Today I should have been cooking a beef casserole in the slow cooker but I forgot to take the meat out of the freezer yesterday. Out all day until quite late, being wined and dined by my friends. Getting me into bad habits they are. Had some wine with the pizza (plus a diet coke) then I was given a large serving of Baileys on ice back at the house. The lady friend had most of the bottle of wine, a sambucca in the Pizza place then she poured herself a large glass of sambucca back home. My, was she merry!!!!
Man friend was driving me home so he had coffees and water. Sensible lad.
Will have to think of something else and get it out today for later cooking.
