I've never written it as a recipe before but stuffed potatoes is always a favourite (especially for bachelors)

Wash a medium/large potato and poke with a fork a few times.

Zap in the microwave until cooked (you should be able to insert a knife through the middle with ease) – this is about 5mins in 1000w microwave for medium tato.

Slice across the potato 3-4 times (about 1.5cm apart) only to about 1cm from the bottom (so it is still whole but you now have a number of openings/slices).

Place a slice of cheese and a chunk of ham between each slice of potato.

Spoon tomato salsa or diced tomato over the top. Zap in microwave for another 30-60 sec. Spoon on some sour cream.

Yummo stuffed potato.

Can also use leftover BBQ chicken, baked beans, chutney, etc for fillings.

I know they were terrible instructions

[whippets]

yum . where can I purchase this book?

[kirst_goldens]

Do I post here? If so, my contribution is below:

Roast lamb with Figs

Serves 6

30ml/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 kg lamb mini roast fillet, trimmed of excess fat

9 fresh figs (either green or brown is ok, but I like green best)

150ml red port

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

A few sprigs of parsley

New (baby) potatoes and green beans, to serve with lamb.

1. Preheat oven to 190C. Heat the olive oil in a large roasting pan (one that will go on the stove top and the oven) over a medium heat until the oil is hot and sizzling.

2. Fry the lamb fillet and sear on all sides until evenly browned.

3. Cut the fresh figs in half and arrange them around the lam. Season the lamb with salt and pepper and put in the oven to roast for 30mins. Take out and pour port over the figs and the lamb.

4. Return the lamb to the oven for a further 30 -45mins. The meat should be slightly pink in the centre.

5. Transfer the lamb to a board and let it rest for 5 mins before carving into slices. Place the figs around the meat and drizzle the remaining juices over the meat. Garnish with parsley and serve with steamed potatoes and green beans.

[Golden Rules]

Lappiemum, that lamb dish sounds divine!!!

The book will be available a couple of ways when all recipes are collated and printed so stay tuned!

This is the best tasting pavlova base I have ever had and it is easy peasy. You can top the pav with cream and whatever you like. My kids and hubby like choc chips, I like strawberries, but as I said you can use whatever you like that is the beauty of it . It is very healthy as well full of protein. I have given this to my hubbies gym and they love it!!

6 egg whites

70g caster sugar (You can add more or less depending on how sweet you like it)

3 tblspns cocoa powder, sieved

1tsp balsamic vinegar

50g dark chocolate, finely chopped (I prefer Nestle)

500ml thickened cream

Preheat oven to 180c and line baking tray with baking paper. Beat egg whites until satiny peaks form and then beat in the sugar a spoonful at a time until the meringue is stiff and shiny. Sprinkle over the cocoa and vinegar and the chopped chocolate. Then gently fold everything until the cocoa is thoroughtly mixed in.

Mount onto a baking sheet in a fat circle approx 23cm in diameter. Smoothing the sides and top.

Place in the oven, then immediately turn the temp down to 150c and cook for approx 1hr to 1.15hrs. When it's ready it should look crisp around the edges and dry on top. Turn off the oven and open the door slightly allowing the heat to escape slowly allowing the pav to cool slowly. If you bring it out too soon it will crack and collapse. (still edible & tasty, just doesn't look as good and you need more cream to fill the crater.

Invert onto a big plate, whip cream and place ontop of meringue, top with whatever you like - Choc chips are a real hit!!

[Golden Rules]

MeatLoaf

1/2 kilo of minced beef (or lamb, chicken or whatever meat takes your fancy)

1 tube sausage meat (Woolworths etc have this)

2 eggs

2 carrots chopped finely

2 onions chopped finely

1/2 cup BBQ Sauce

2 tbsp Worcester sauce

2tbsp Sweet Chili Sauce

1 tsp beef stock

1/2 tsp ground pepper

Breadcrumbs (fresh or dried)

Mix the first 10 ingredients together well. The mixture will be sloppy. Add breadcrumbs until the mixture is able to be formed in your hands.

At this point you can choose what to do with the mixture.

The mixture can be put in a loaf tin and cooked for 45 minutes in a moderate oven. Can be eaten hot or cold as a loaf - great in salad sandwiches.

or

The mixture can be used for homemade sausage rolls (using puff pastry).

or

The same mixture (minus the sausage meat) can be formed into rissoles or hamburgers and fried.

I've got some people recipes and some dog recipes

So first up, people.

Melting Moment Biscuits

Ingedients

250g butter

1/3 cup icing sugar

1½ cups plain flour

½ cup corn flour

Lemon Cream Icing

60g butter

½ cup icing sugar

1 teaspoon of finely grated lemon rind

3 teaspoons lemon juice

½ teaspoon of vanilla bean extract

Biscuit Method

Start by whipping softened butter with electric beaters. The butter must be soft, but definitely not liquid. Add the icing sugar in parts and whip until combined and the mix is light and fluffy.

Add the corn flour in parts and mix well, until it is all combined. The texture should be smooth and light like in the picture to the left.

Add plain flour in half cup amounts and mix well after each addition. The aim is to keep a light, soft, smooth mixture that will be able to be forced through a piping bag or biscuit press.

Spoon into a biscuit press and press the biscuits onto a lightly greased tray. Or you can use a very strong piping bag to pipe rosettes on to a lightly greased oven tray.

Bake in moderate oven 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.

Lemon Cream Icing Method

Whip butter and lemon zest with electric beaters. Gradually add sifted icing sugar and continue beating until mixture is light and creamy. Gradually add lemon juice and vanilla. Add extra icing sugar as needed to ensure a stiff icing mixture.

Use a butter knife to spread the icing onto the back of a biscuit, press down the other half and then load into your jar or barrel.

Makes about 40 complete biscuits using a press. These will keep for about a week and a half in an airtight container and are usually even better on the second day.

Cookies and Cream Cheesecakes Recipe

Makes 30

Ingredients:

42 cream-filled sandwich cookies, such as Oreos, 30 left whole, and 12 coarsely chopped

2 pounds cream cheese, room temperature

1 cup sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

4 large eggs, room temperature, lightly beaten

1 cup sour cream

Pinch of salt

1. Preheat oven to 275 degrees. Line standard muffin tins with paper liners. Place 1 whole cookie in the bottom of each lined cup.

2. With an electric mixer on medium high speed, beat cream cheese until smooth, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Gradually add sugar, and beat until combined. Beat in vanilla.

3. Drizzle in eggs, a bit at a time, beating to combine and scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Beat in sour cream and salt. Stir in chopped cookies by hand.

4. Divide batter evenly among cookie-lined cups, filling each almost to the top. Bake, rotating pan halfway through, until filling is set, about 22 minutes. Transfer to wire racks to cool completely. Refrigerate at least 4 hours (or up to overnight). Remove from tins just before serving.

2 bay leaves

1 tsp salt (if desired), 1 tsp white pepper

Cover, cook in slow oven (135 degrees C) for 3 to 3 ½ hours- meat will be very tender when cooked. No need to add further thickening. Add champignons prior to serving.

Serve with green salad and new potatoes or rice

Serves six

[Golden Rules]

Simple Salad - No Dressing Required

Feta Cheese - cubed

Snow Peas

Sundried tomatoes

Gherkins - chopped or sliced

Bean Sprouts (optional)

Approximately equal quantities of each (you may need more snow peas and Feta). Mix all together.

This salad has a delightful combination of flavours that work really well and you don't need any dressing because there is residual oil from the tomatoes and vinegar from the gherkins that coat it all beautifully.
