Makai Nu Shaak (Corn Cooked With Milk)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Aunt Cookie  

This was delicious, although the corn turned out a little bit tough, I think due to the length of time it was cooked for. I'm not sure how this could be avoided without affecting the taste though, as I think cooking the corn in the milk as it... — Miss Dipsy Nov 4, 2008

Black Bean and Tortilla Bake

Posted by spatchcock  

I didn't make the recipe exactly as described; I used more garlic ('coz we love it!!), no green onion (just increased the other onion), tinned tomatoes instead of the tomatoes & tomato sauce, my own spice & herb blend (similar to chili powder,... — Miss Dipsy Sep 19, 2008

Penuche Fudge

Posted by Lennie  

This is really good, it's just like fudge is supposed to be! It's actually the first time I've made proper fudge, so I think it is a testiment to the quality of this recipe that the fudge turned out perfect! The directions were very clear, and... — Miss Dipsy Dec 20, 2006

Moist Chocolate Cake

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Tryntje  

This turned out suprisingly good; I say suprising because it was so quick & easy to whip up & turned out just as good as many cakes that have taken a lot longer to make! The instructions weren't clear about which order to mix things up in; I... — Miss Dipsy Nov 27, 2006

Cornbread

Posted by JANIC412  

This was the first time I've ever tried cornbread (I'm from the UK), so I don't have anything to compare this to, but I REALLY liked it - to the extent that I found myself eating up the leftovers by itself after dinner (even though I had eaten... — Miss Dipsy Nov 25, 2006

Easy Homemade Microwave Cleaner

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Charishma Ramchandani  

This is an excellent way of cleaning a microwave. My own tip is to leave the container in the microwave for a few minutes after boiling it; this aids the build-up of steam & condensation for extra grime-loosening power! Also, try to use a real... — Miss Dipsy Oct 6, 2006

Cabbage for Those Who Dislike Cabbage

Posted by Lennie  

In theory, this is an excellent recipe. I have cooked similar dishes before which I have enjoyed, but they weren't from recipes. The problem was the cooking time & the type of cabbage I used (savoy, which does cook quicker than other types); I... — Miss Dipsy Aug 30, 2006

Raw Sweet Potato Casserole

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by yogi  

We ended up having this as a dessert, as it was summer & really the wrong time of year to be having wintery meals (which is the kind of savoury food this would go best with). And I must say it does work very well as a dessert! I had never eaten... — Miss Dipsy Aug 30, 2006

Frizzled Cabbage

(5 people found this helpful) Posted by Boxerwing  

I had made similar dishes a few times before I found this recipe, and I must say this is a particularly good version. The timing seems to be about right, and the tip to reduce the heat & cook until beginning to caramelise (but not burn!) is a good... — Miss Dipsy Aug 30, 2006

Green Smoothie

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Meredith K.  

This was really good; I had tried another green smoothie recipe before that was less fruity & didn't contain yoghurt, which was ok but not exactly something you'd drink purely for enjoyment! This, on the other hand, was very tasty & is something I... — Miss Dipsy Aug 22, 2006

Italian-style Cauliflower

Posted by Vino Girl  

This made a pleasant change, as I generally only cook cauliflower in one of three ways: plain, with cheese sauce or curried. It wasn't anything spectacular (not that I expected it to be), just nice! I sprinkled a little parmesan & black pepper on,... — Miss Dipsy Aug 1, 2006

Persian Eggs Poached in Tomato Sauce

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by justcallmetoni  

I have actually made another version of this before, which sounds a bit more like the version described in the intro. The recipe here was very nice, but not quite as interesting as the version I've tried before - this one would probably be... — Miss Dipsy Jan 24, 2006

Super Moist and Delicious Red Velvet Cake with Cream Cheese Fros

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by Anita Harris  

This certainly is a very moist cake, with a really good texture, quite nice flavour but a little bland for my taste, and a touch too oily. I didn't add the food colouring, which I know is traditional, but I don't think people have even heard of... — Miss Dipsy Jan 23, 2006

Tia's Favorite Toast

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Gina*S  

This is a very quick & simple dish that can be thrown together in minutes, so is great for a filling and relatively healthy snack when you're in a hurry. I suspect that the flavour depends a lot on the cheese you use; I expect it would be a bit... — Miss Dipsy Oct 19, 2005

Picky Kid-pleaser Sweet Potato Pancakes

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by BigFatMomma  

These went down very well with my kids (& me!), and were very straightforward to make, although the grating is a pain if, like me, you don't own a food processor!! I can't be 100% certain that mine turned out exactly as they were meant to as I... — Miss Dipsy Jun 20, 2005

Better Butter

(5 people found this helpful) Posted by TruckCook  

Wow, I don't have to buy butter/margarine style spreads anymore! I'd rather have the saturated fats from butter than all those hydrogenated fats in spreads; plus real butter tastes better, but it doesn't spread very easily. This way I get all the... — Miss Dipsy May 25, 2005

Anise Milk

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by nvermd  

Mmmmm-mmmm! Delicious! Thick, smooth, creamy & spicy - this may have to be my new bedtime drink! I changed it slightly though, as I didn't have any aniseeds, so I popped in a whole star anise instead & it worked fine. In fact it's probably even... — Miss Dipsy May 22, 2005

Quinoa Pilaf

Oatmeal N'apples Breakfast Cookies

These didn't turn out exactly as I expected, they were more like flat cakes than cookies! Nevertheless, they tasted very good (and worked suprisingly well as cakes!) It may have been my mistake with measurements or something, since we don't do... — Miss Dipsy Apr 18, 2005

Bow Tie Pasta With Broccoli and Broccoli Sauce

(16 people found this helpful) Posted by sugarpea  

Great way to use up the glut of broccoli I currently have in my garden, and the kids love it too! They do like broccoli anyway, but my daughter has a bad habit with pasta dishes of picking out the pasta and leaving everything else, even if... — Miss Dipsy Apr 15, 2005
