Astarra how delightful to wake up on a Sunday morning and see a great new challenge. Sounds like fun and thank you for thinking of it.

I have no idea what Ros is going on about "accountability focus" and "organisation" but this sounds like a challenge made for us and a chance to get  some new/old recipes of our or our mother's favourites on the forum. Also  it will help newbies to gain some confidence in their ability to convert not to mention us lazy old timers.

Halex I am gunna use this challenge to help in the other challenge to clean out the pantry.



Here is my challenge I have wanted to do for a long time. This can has been sitting in my cupboard for god knows how long. It has a ring pull so it must be no more than about 5 years eh?  I don't even like creamed corn but vaguely remember I bought it to make a recipe  of a creamed corn casserole  my mother used to make.  Either that or a sort of corn bread my dad used to love.

I will be really reaching hard  to try to remember and  I may have to get Mr. google to help find the "one".

Good way to start new week and Amy is well ahead of us.

Oh Gert we make an asian chicken and corn soup and whisk through an egg.  It's very popular here.

I've recently converted a Taste.com steamed asian chicken recipe for the TMX.  I cooked the rice in the basket while the chicken was cooking.  About 1/2 way through I turned the chicken a bit and added some veggies to the varoma.  Once it was all cooked I rinsed the TMX bowl and added all the juices from the baking paper that was in the varoma and thickened it with a bit of cornflour to make a nice glaze.

Gert,  corn fritters,  served with bacon.  YUM

Can I post a conversion of one of my recipes ????
Flat Seed Bread.    Wanted bread for toasting and sandwich maker.

Used Laucke Grain, Soy and Linseed Mix.  500g.  Could make your own with plenty of soaked whole grains.
2 teaspoons of dried yeast
1 tablespoon Walnut oil.
280 mls warm water.
Knead 4 mins. Prove in bowl until double.
Turn out and press into a flat tin or press out with hands and rolling pin to1 1/2 cm.  Spray with water and scatter with seeds of choice.  I used nigella and sesame seeds.

OOPS...... Forgot to say mark it in to sections before second rise
Prove to double.
Bake 15 mins turn, bake another 15 mins.

This is very grainy,  but not hard to chew.

Well I  did the recipe I remembered from childhood and posted it in the Vegetable thread.

http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=10874.0

I think kids would like it but  I do think I will never ever make it again. Amazing what you loved when you were 7 tastes so ordinary when you are 67. LOL!

Anyway  I used up the damn can.

Ros you have me scared, all those big words make me think I'm back at work again. :)

CP you are right about my couple of converted recipes, they had been sitting there waiting and I stopped procrastinating ( ooh another big word) and did them. I'm on the ipad at the moment so will post the roly poly when I can get onto the big computer. We enjoyed it with custard.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Amy,  I have posted basic recipe with photo.
You can use any oil and any flour.
 It is the process of pushing it flat that is different.
  Have fun.

LOL Gert. That's how I felt about the tin of peaches. The upside down cake looked quite anaemic but tasted great with vanilla bean custard.
