Our Next Challenge - comfort food

[judydawn]

We have decided to move onto our next challenge but if there are still untried forum recipes you would like to try, please do so and add them to the previous challenge thread.  Some wonderful recipes were bumped and we really appreciate the input from all those who participated.

The new challenge is for comfort food.  This means something different to everyone, it could be savoury or dessert.  Preferably recipes from the forum but recipes from other sources are welcomed (please provide a photo and a link back to the recipe) or perhaps you may even like to convert a new recipe.

On your marks, get set, GO!

Thanks Judy. It will be fun to see what everyone thinks of as Comfort Food.

Thanks Judy
Comfort food for me is a dessert with custard

I have the recipe ready; rescued the chocolate from DH and the cream is sitting in the fridge. Will try tomorrow to put a photo on here with the recipe. You ladies are so good coming up with these new ideas and I do sooo love comfort food.

"rescued the chocolate from DH and the cream is sitting in the fridge."

LOL  You made me laugh Troupie

So glad to make you happy. I have really enjoyed the challenge so far and it got me looking at more recipes rather than sticking with the ones I always make.

Nice to feel your excitement troupie. Poor DH, almost got to have some chocolate before you 'rescued' it

Just made Chookie's Hazelnut Ice-cream with frangelico liqueur could only wait 1hr in freezer ... Yum & so nice on a sore throat.  Link & photo tomorrow

Just made my comfort food; Chocolate Scones. I am now going to read up on posting the photo before I post the recipe.

Comfort food to me is anything containing my favourite vegies etc.  I have converted and posted the recipe for Chicken, Spinach & Cauliflower Cheese as it fits the bill perfectly for me.

Comfort food for me is possibly a lot of the food I grew up with. Like CC that includes desserts with custard. I also think of soups, casseroles and warm things as Comfort food.

I think, like most people, comfort food to me is the food I grew up with ... porridge and scotch broth are the stand outs here ... according to mum, they cure all illnesses!  However, that isn't stimulating this challenge so I will have to try to come up with something TMX related.  Winter is definitely the time to be thinking of comfort food so I am sure there are heaps of possibilities out there.

It is to me.

Last night we made my DH's very favourite dessert. Rice Pudding. This is his favourite recipe and it is from My Way of Cooking. It is on page 218. It can be served with fruit or a coulis. He prefers it plain.
The only change I make is to cook it using speed 2 for the 30 minutes, not speed 1.
