Mulled Cider

Wed, 05 Nov 2008 09:28:21 +0100

In the spirit of bonfire night, I decided to make some mulled cider. This drink tends to go down well at this time of year, also, the apples are in season around now.

When you're standing about in the cold outdoors watching the bonfire and gasping…

Eggy Toast

Wed, 29 Oct 2008 20:16:06 +0100

I bought a big pile of fun/funny biscuit cutters a while ago. I most probably did this under the misguided impression that I would be baking tasty biscuits for friends and family all the time, and naturally, I'd need lots of cutters otherwise it would be boring eating round biscuits…

Mushroom Steak Sandwich

Fri, 09 May 2008 19:14:41 +0100

I was pottering about on a lazy Sunday afternoon, hungry but too lazy to do anything strenuous and the fridge was practically empty.

Hearty Brussels Sprouts and Mince Pie

Wed, 10 Oct 2007 13:00:49 +0100

This is an excellent way to get kids (and adults) who hate Brussels sprouts to eat them. The buttery pastry and the evaporated milk make the sprouts taste creamy and rich, whilst the mince forms something almost like a burger at the bottom of the pie making it extra tasty.…

Sugar & Spice Valentine Biscuits - Spread the Love

Wed, 31 Dec 1969 16:00:00 +0100

During my halcyon years at Uni, which isn’t too long ago, I started a tradition. Unfortunately, no-one else has taken it up… yet! I decided to bake a huge batch of cookies, flavoured with sweet warm spices and smelling of roses… wrapped them up in a nice rose-patterned napkin, tied…

1. Soak your beans - Take some black-eye beans, the amount will depend on how much you want to make. Cover in cold water and soak overnight. The next day, take some time out and use your fingers to rub and remove all the skins. The skin won't make it…
