Have you got the recipe for the fritters please?

hi emsie - yes of course.

SPICED COURGETTE FRITTERS
*************************

from jan/feb 2012, serves 4, makes 8. 1.5 syns per serving. ready in 15 mins
i halved the whole recipe and we still had 2 large fritters each.

3 courgettes grated or whizzed in blitzer
200g feta cheese crumbled
2 tsp cumin seeds
small handful fresh herbs
1 red chilli deseeded and finely chopped
2 eggs beaten
2 level tbsp self raising flour
salt and pepper

put courgette into a fine sieve and press with back of spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. transfer to a bowl with cumin seeds, feta, chilli, eggs and flour, season and mix well.

either spray a pan with frylight and cook on both sides for 2-3 mins or i used a georgr foreman grilling machine.

ALL ABOARD FISH PIE
******************

500G white fish and smoked/dyed fish or salmon . I used 250G cod, 250G smoked dyed haddock

100G small prawns
tub of quark
75g of peas or sweetcorn
4 eggs
400ml fish stock, i used a fish stockpot jelly pot and topped it up with hot water.
(stockpots 2 for £3 at moment in tesco and sainsbury)
4 large potatoes
2 heas of cheese


i wanted a fish pie with a creamy thickish sauce not a runny watery one which ive had before, so i adapted 3 sw recipes to get the right thing.

skin the fish and place in a saucepan add 200ml water and half a fish stockpot. allow to reach the boil and cook gently for 7 mins.
meanwhile peel & dice potatoes and boil.
boil 3 of the 4 eggs.

flake the fish and put into an ovenproof dish, add prawns and sweetcorn/peas.

beat the quark in a bowl with half of remaining fish stockpot, and 200ml hot water and the remaining egg.
add a tablespoon of herbs i used some chopped parsley and some dill. mix well and pour over fish.
season .
mash the potatoes or whisk with an electric hand mixer, i added a butterbud sachet (0.5 syns) and enough water to get a creamy mash then topped fish. i grated 2 heas of cheddar on top and baked gas 6 for 25 mins.

those tartlets look very good could i have the recipe please

Hi it's very simple. I weighed out some ready rolled puff pastry into 28g which my book tells me is 6 syns. I'm sure they'd work with instant mash pastry but I'd made kids some pies so I had some to use up.

Rolled thinner, then put into Yorkshire pudding tins, sprayed with frylight. I sprayed a pan with frylight and added some sliced cherry tomatoes, some sliced mushrooms and some salt n pepper . When softened I added to the pastry cases and crumbled some mozzarella on top about a desert spoon on each one. Then topped with a couple of pieces if rocket and baked until melted. Well worth the syns

how do you cook the diet coke ham,do you literally boil it in diet coke? looks lovely
