Title: What do you all think of this idea?
Post by: brazen20au on August 20, 2009, 08:16:07 am
we have some forum challenges to have some fun - eg:

make something new from the EDC and report on it

Sounds like fun!  I'm in!  (Do you mind if I change the recipes to make them wheat free, dairy free and naturally sweetened?  Can't eat it otherwise!)  :P

Sitting on the edge of my seat waiti....... OMG .. fell off.

So, this is what Tenina is doing - but unfortunately, all the recipes disappear and nobody sees what was sent in.

This is a great idea  :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*

Yep I'm in, maybe not on a regular basis, depending on how many days I am at work each week etc.

But I think it's a great idea.

I'm thinking to start simple, but open to ideas if you think this is too easy...

FIRST CHALLENGE: make a variation on the risotto OR rice pudding recipe (or both if you really want lol). could be a minor change like chicken for mushrooms, or a major change! bring it on!

please share your recipe or at least outline your modifications, and bonus points for pictures and reviews ;) :D

go for it!

Count me out of the risotto but I'll see what I can come up with as far as the rice pudding goes.  How long have we got?
Title: Re: What do you all think of this idea?
Post by: brazen20au on August 20, 2009, 11:26:03 am
your'e the reason i did the two ;)

a week or two? we'll just see how we go, but anyone who wants to can do it after that anyway. if most people are ok with this as the first i'll start a new thread :)
Title: Re: What do you all think of this idea?
Post by: quirkycooking on August 20, 2009, 11:47:33 am
Sounds good!  Can we do versions of both risotto and rice pudding?  :D

hehe judy, i don't know THAT much about you - what shoe size you wear etc lol ;)

cool, i will go start a new thread - and yes jo, feel free to do both!

Is it possible to make this open to non-Australian TMX owners, maybe by writing the basic recipe onto the challenge?   The UK book does have a mushroom risotto recipe but it may not be the same as yours and it would be good to be at the same starting point.

Thanks...

i think it would be kind of fun to use yours as a base so we can see what yours is like! but I will see what i can link to in the other thread, for those who'd like to use the aussie version ;)

I'll give it a shot - like Quirky, we are dairy and wheat free...and egg and soy!  So risotto is a great choice for us   ;D
