Happy Cow Burger …

… Old-School Coleslaw and Corn on the Cob   I did this meal on Sunday, for lunch. This had 24 ingredients, which is significantly more than the other two meals I have made. There is also more text to read.  This made me think it would be quite a challenging dish to do in 15 … Continue reading »

… Coconut Buns, Cucumber Pickle & Hoi Sin Sauce     I bought a Bamboo steamer.  Don’t worry I did not pay £17.  I was a little worried about doing this one.  I found it hard to believe you can make eight buns in fifteen minutes.  I immediately hit on a problem.  The recipe calls … Continue reading »

The Rules

So I suppose it would be good to set out some rules, or at least parameters. • I will cook every single meal • I will try to cook at least 2 meals a week, more if I can, but if I can’t do any at all one week so what! • I will follow all the … Continue reading »

The Project …

————————————————————————————————————————————————- Ok, so I’m about to embark on a new project.  I’m not entirely sure of the sense of this, because life is pretty busy and a new project probably isn’t what I need, but … I own a lot of cook books.  At a guess I would say I have about 3 or 4 … Continue reading »
