hi Jez,
well done with the cooking. its all about experimentation so next time you can add the jerk with confidence knowing that it wont be too hot for you. i must admit, i am a lightweight when it comes to jerk so only really cook it for mr mama.
You have inspired me to make some okra rice!

OOh another Queen of Frugality I have leftover turkey from Christmas, recipe for the Nigerian Rice, I make my own version of chicken fried rice, made it SW now at target I fry the onions and rice at the beginning in low fat marg again as Frylight seems to make the onions taste bolied but good enough to eat.

I am always on the look out for a new rice dish yours looks great. xx

Thanks jo*, I don't like fry light so use the flora spray or flora cuisine instead.
 
i cook a lot of food in the oven and love roasts so i bought a grvy strainer thingy so that i can use the cooking juices. a colleague who goes to class (i dont) said that i shouldnt eat the meat juices but i am not sure i agree. any thoughts?

i pour off the fat and make my sauces with the juices. here is the strainer.

Hi mama, yeah that's no's 3+4 !!!
Everyone thinks no 4 is a girl cos he has long blonde hair, but it suits him and I can't bare to cut it !!!!:)
 
Hey mama, some fantastic recipes u have, I only eat chicken, pork and fish so any more recipes u can share would be great I also noticed that in your chicken dishes u use thighs etc could it work if I replaced them for breasts as I only eat that part ( I'm not really as fussy as I sound lol ) I eat all vegetables. Also do u have any meals I could do in slow cooker plz x
 
Until Mama comes back to you Selina I only eat breast and cook all my chicken meals breast for me and daughter, thighs and legs for hubby (who hates breast, well on a chicken anyhow! :eek:;)) and son. I occasionally try boneless thigh but with you totally on preference,its the texture that puts me off the dark meat.
 
Hi all and welcome
Yes, use the part that you prefer. I find breast too dry but if you prefer it then go for it.

As for the slow cooker, I think most of my meat recipes would work well in the slow cooker, especially the curry chicken, roast pork and stew beef. Just adjust the timings.

I use a strainer and always have used the meat juices, I had consistent losses right through to target apart from monthly issues which was normal.

Hi Mama,
The jerk was a disaster!
I bought the incorrect type of seasoning, it was jerk, just not the wet stuff. it looked nothing like the pics on here, boo hoo. will have another go in a week or so again, ha !:confused:
 
Hi Mama,

Firstly, thank you for all your recipes, they look lush, I am going to try your Pork fried rice, salmon and Chive pasta and KFC Chicken next week!!

Your smash pizza looks very very nice, what have you got as the toppings?

Cheers lovely
Elaine

Hi Rach,
It depends upon the amount of flour you use for your breading. I put mine in a plastic food bag and shake it so that I use less.

You're welcome elainer, I'm glad you're enjoying my food porn. My pizza has the doner kebab meat on it and it was delicious. There is a recipe on thr forum for it so give it a search.
Let me know how you get on with the recipes.
