Thread: Help! Cooker broke .... need dinner ideas to cook on hob

my oven broke - new thermostat won't be available until next Thursday!! so in the meantime I have to cook meals on the hob / slow cooker

I need 8 dinners any ideas to stop me from picking up phone ordering a takeaway and blowing the calorie count???

Stir fry

Ratatouille

1 clove garlic, chopped
1 onion chopped
Fry in tiny amount of olive oil for 3 mins
1 courgette chopped
1 Auvergne chopped
1 green pepper/red pepper
Added to pan, soften for 5 mins
Cherry tomatoes if u fancy
Plus carton of chopped tomato added with sprinkle of herbes de Provence.
Cook for 30 mins an season to taste. If you like zing add a red chilli.
Serve with cauldron Lincolnshire 'saisages' a large cupful of ratatouille is about 100 cal maxi.

Also good as a tipping for jacket spud. Leftovers can be blended and used as a sauce for pasta.
