What are you been cooking today

GD loves the 5. I think the original 31 has had a very full life. She joined Cookidoo and made Lentil Bol sauce and sent me a photo. DIL loves the 6. Will try the free Cookidoo for 6 months before she decides. We are all on different WiFi. She is quite excited as she has only had my hand me downs and this is new. She set it up herself, didn’t need the consultant.
K Atie, you could give your DD your 31 and buy an extra bowl.
Today I will make lemon cakes in my new square cake pan. I now prefer to make individual cakes rather than a big one. Good to freeze and just take out as many as necessary. Doesn’t look as dramatic but more practical for me.

Yes I could do that .
Stewed some home grown apples . Made a Strawberry cake from RTEs very easy .

New biscuit recipe from new book. Preserved citrus peel and olive oil. I make my peel for the Hot X Buns. I wouldn’t use commercial peel in these so won’t post recipe. They are very nice but very high in sugar.
Also made some Rum and Raisin Banana cake in the new square hole  baking sheet. Just brushed the holes with cake release.  Perfect.

I made a Classic loaf today and some discard crackers. There are no crackers left, we all kept grabbing a couple to nibble on.

Cooked beef in stout for GS and friend.  They loved it. Bananas fritters to follow. GS is cooking for himself. I gave him a large pot that I haven’t used since shifting. He replaced a light fitting that wasn’t working.
I’m going to make Cornish Pasties today. I cook the filling in the Microwave prior to forming the pasties.

Out to dinner last night to a restaurant (Indian and Hungarian mix on the menu) we had never been to, and will never go to again!  The food was very mediocre without much in the way of taste or interest.  Ah well, at least we know now.

Always good to try something new, Marina. Doesn’t often work out.
Fig jam today.  The quinces are also starting to ripen.

Chicken, pasta & vegetable dish.  Sticky toffee puddings from cookidoo.  I made the sauce on the stove as the puddings were in the tmx steaming.   Also stewed some pears.

It all looks delicious, especially the sticky toffee puddings.
