Chicken Tagine With Apricots and Honey

Posted by justcallmetoni  

I found that the cooking and preparation times for this recipe are way out — it took about twice as long as stated! (Just dicing a squash takes forever; and simmering 'til tender takes at least 15 minutes, covered... but I digress!) Despite this... — Xophmeister Dec 16, 2006

Indonesian Fried Rice (Nasi Goreng)

Posted by Daydream  

This is pretty good: one chicken thigh per person seems to work well; and more shrimp (about 40g/serving). Note that if you've never used Sambal Oelek before (as I hadn't) it packs one Hell of a punch: use sparingly! — Xophmeister Dec 9, 2006

Kari Ayam Kelapa (Curried chicken with toasted coconut)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Bergy  

I actually found this quite bland; especially considering how involved it was to make (it wasn't hard, it just took a while). Maybe that's just me!... Personally, I think it could do with almost twice the amount of coconut (I used 60g for 3... — Xophmeister Dec 3, 2006

Cheddar Pear Pie

This is great! It's just wrong but tastes so right!... However, I would say that these amounts will serve 10-12 easily — it's quite a lot for six (I made half for three, it could have done six no problem). Make sure the pastry has cooked fully,... — Xophmeister Sep 1, 2006

15 Minute Baked Halibut With Herbs

Posted by ~Leslie~  

This is really nice (and beautifully easy — it's almost a crime!). However, it's very subtle; don't serve it with anything heavy or all the flavours will be lost — just plain spaghetti worked well for me; rice would be good, or perhaps a little... — Xophmeister Sep 1, 2006

Somewhat Healthier Creamy Spicy Carrot Soup

Posted by Cheryl Trooskin  

It didn't taste much like carrots when done, but it was yummy — the spices really gave it an interesting flavour. The only other thing worth mentioning is the stage, "Add water." — exactly how much water is left to you! I ended-up putting too... — Xophmeister Sep 1, 2006
