Mince Beef Curry

Posted by Ozzzie  

I thought this was delicious! I did make a few changes - I only used 1 spoon of curry, as that's more to our taste. I used a spiced fruit chutney and instead of frozen vegetables used fresh spring onions and garlic. I will serve with lady fingers... — Luschka Nov 5, 2009

Toad in the Hole

Posted by angelina ballerina  

Lovely simple recipe, easy and quick. I did add some rosemary and thyme and pepper, just to add some flavour to it, and might add some garlic next time too. — Luschka Sep 30, 2009

Coriander Chicken

Posted by Brian H  

This was lovely! I added a bit more water to make more 'sauce' which was totally delicious. I didn't have time to marinade overnight, and it was still great. We served with saffron rice and naan bread. — Luschka Sep 26, 2009

Best Chocolate Cake

Posted by Tonkcats  

Well - I always think that recipes with widely differing reviews are often worth trying for myself, and I am really glad I did with this recipe. I must say for a start that I NEVER have success with cakes - I keep trying, but I've never made a... — Luschka Sep 19, 2009

South African "vetkoek" (Bread Machine Recipe)

Posted by Ant  

So easy in the bread machine (okay, so the Voortrekker Tannies are turning in their graves! but the simpleness of this really made it worth it!) Delicious, minimal effort, no problems with the ingredients or otherwise - these would give my dad's a... — Luschka Sep 4, 2009

Elaichi Gosht - Lamb With Cardamom

Posted by Nose  

I have primarily only great things to say about this dish! It was really tasty and not at all hard to prepare, considering how good it was. I did double the spices as by the time I got to actually adding the water I thought it needed something... — Luschka Jun 3, 2009

Pretty Little Lavender Fairy Cakes - Cupcakes

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by French Tart  

Maybe I'm completely dense about cupcakes but I think these were the quickest I've ever come across. I had to make a few changes, like I couldn't find lavender anywhere, so I just added vanilla essence, and I wanted a thicker icing so I made a... — Luschka Jun 3, 2009

Balsamic Glazed Grilled Plums With Vanilla Ice Cream

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Kree  

This is really fantastic! I was blown away by the flavours. The only thing that I would change is that I'd bake the plums so that they can be a lot softer. I think that would improve the recipe. The syrup and icecream combo is phenomenal though! — Luschka May 31, 2009

Spinach

Posted by BonnieZ  

This was totally delicious. I didn't add the garlic as I can't have any at the moment, but I loved it. The only thing I will change next time is to roast the pine nuts first. But there'll certainly be a next time! — Luschka May 31, 2009

My Mom's Date Squares

Posted by KitchenCraftsnMore  

These are really very good - I made one batch and we ate it over two days and they were great. I've made a second batch in two halves - one replacing the dates with figs and one with cranberries and they look good. The only negative is that they... — Luschka Jan 13, 2009

Florentine Rolls

Posted by Al Al  

These were brilliant. A perfect accompaniment to pasta, but I think they'd probably be great as an appetiser too. I didn't have the time or inclination to make pizza dough, so I just used pre rolled shortcrust pastry. I don't know how much... — Luschka Dec 31, 2008

Hazelnut Sugar Syrup

Posted by KateL  

I also could not find hazelnut extract anywhere, so I made it with almond instead. It was really simple and a lot more economical than buying (assuming I can find hazelnut extract anywhere!) I will try it with hazelnut liqueur at some point, but I... — Luschka Nov 3, 2008

Chic and Cheerful - Savoury French Olive, Cheese and Onion Cake

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by French Tart  

This delicious and relatively simple bread was a real treat with a nice thick winter stew. I think next time I will add slightly less milk as it was a bit too moist and I had to leave it in the oven for almost an hour, but it was very tasty and... — Luschka Oct 29, 2008

Lemon Rosemary Salmon

Posted by Lorrie in Montreal  

This delicious salmon meal is quick and easy to prepare. I had it with baby potatoes which took a little longer to prepare, so I had the salmon ready for the oven for about an hour before it went in, so the lemon really had time to sink in. It... — Luschka Oct 20, 2008

Gnocchi With Mornay Cheese Sauce

Posted by 2Bleu (Bird&Buddha)  

I've always really liked Gnocchi, so I tagged this straight away without looking at the ingredients. I was quite surprised when I did look to see that there was no potato in it as authentic gnocchi is made with potatoes. It was not what I... — Luschka Sep 1, 2008

Chicken & Broccoli Bow-Tie Pasta Salad

Posted by HokiesLady  

This was a really delicious pasta. I left out the tomato and the Italan dressing. I cooked the chicken in garlic and ginger and used some of the chicken's juices instead of the Italian dressing to make sure the pasta wasn't dry. Very easy, very... — Luschka Aug 13, 2008

Bacon and Mushroom Bites

Posted by Calee  

These were quick and easy. I didn't have dry mustard so used Dijon instead. We also don't get crescent rolls here, so I just used normal puff pastry, rolled in in a tube and sliced in to circles. They have a very strong flavour and as such are a... — Luschka Aug 13, 2008

Asparagus Tip & Prosciutto Puffs

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Baby Kato  

These were really easy and very tasty. The asparagus flavour was stronger than the prosciutto so it might be better to use a stronger meat but it was still really quick and easy and served well with other finger snacks. Reviewed for Phototag... — Luschka Aug 13, 2008

Grilled Pitas With Caramelized Onions and Goat Cheese

Posted by Shelby Jo  

This was lovely. I added a few more spoons of sugar as it wasn't really carmalizing, but it was good. It was quite a lot for an apetizer though, so I'd probably do it with mini pitas in future. It was a great addition to a finger buffet platter.... — Luschka Aug 9, 2008
