Challenge Try something new in TMX this week

[dede]

No I have never made it, I'm not a huge fan of risotto and DH doesn't like rice do I haven't bothered. But I have decided to give it a go. I like the sound of the garlic prawn one so might try that see if DH likes that.

The kids will like the pizza risotto dede, it's very yummy.

I think they just might Michelle, and it's a great recipe to try for me considering I have never made risotto before.

Tonight I made the mushroom soup- I too was in a bit of a rut of thermie, making same old same old but this week I tried the honey soy chicken and tonight the soup! Made lasagne today and decided on the cheese sauce instead of plain old bechamel and it was nice! Used cornflour instead of flour- probably makes it a bit thick for my liking!
I like this thread!

I will for sure, I'm just not going to tell DH what we having for dinner that night or he might not come home
He does like non fried rice, but not plain rice. He might just like it?

Love this idea because being a newbie, everything is still new and exciting!

I made my own Tikka Curry paste last night (first attempt at a curry paste) and teamed it with the Butter chicken recipe from here on the forum and it was just divine!

Risottos are my go-to when I'm late home from work or just can't be bothered, tonight was based on the mushroom one in the EDC but I added bacon, peas and zucchini because I needed to use them up. It wasn't fabulous but it was a pretty good meal to have on the table in less than 30minutes when we're home late from work and have visitors staying.

I'm hoping to make yoghurt/ricotta cheese this week so maybe that can be my goal!
I'm looking forward to hearing what other people are trying

I made chocolate today and it was a huge success!
Thank you quirky jo for your wonderful recipe

Jamberie, I am also a risotto queen!!. Keen to maybe try yoghurt or a sourdough. 

[blackwood]

I am very keen on this challenge! I have so many recipes on my 'to do' list, I need more hours in the day to cook them all.

I've decided that I'm going to try the honey mustard chicken tonight. I can't wait! Honey mustard sauce is my favourite flavour combination ever!!!

Plus I've got some bread rolls baking away now (as we've had no bread in the house for the last couple of days...that's pretty unusual for us!

[cookie1]

I hope you enjoy it all Blackwood.

[blackwood]

oh my goodness...they were all fantastic! I will have to leave a review...just need to find the right spot to leave it!!! 

I'm just looking on this forum for something to make tomorrow!

Dede - have you made the risotto yet?  What was the family's verdict?
