Recipe Index
Below you will find an index of all of the recipes published in this blog. The Index gives the name of the recipe and a brief description. They are (at least for now) in no particular order. The name of the recipe is also a link to the page that shows that recipe in detail. I've made those pages simple, no header or fancy stuff so that they're easy to print off. Please enjoy the recipes and let me know what you think if you try them. Additions or variations are always welcome.
Not quite a disaster, but a learning experience. Tasted good . This works well especially when there are those with vastly different tastes. Lemon pie Not quite the best yet, but a good start. Needs more lemon. Carrot & Cumin soup Delicious, cheap & easy. Always a great hit. Recipe from eGullet. The French can't believe this has carrots in it.

A treat when you or yours are feeling a bit down. OX Tail Stew You've gotta try this. Delicious & easy to make. It will warm the cockles of your heart! Roast Ratatouille Easy & delicious.

Great for a cold day. My version is quick & easy, but not for purists. Fish Stew This is a wonderful dish. A great party dish as its hard to make for just two, but is great for a small crowd. Mushroom Soup - Again Pretty much the same recipe as above, but with pictures this time. So good & simple that it bears repeating. THE best cauliflower cheese recipe I've ever tried. All credit to the Hairy Bikers. You'll love this & even your kids will happily eat this healthy dish! Veal Roast with endive & mushrooms I'm not a big veal fan, but this is seriously good. Delicious! An adaptation from Julia & Jacques recipe. THE easiest dip you can imagine. People love it. Sometimes spur of the moment recipes work. This did!
