Traditional Devon Cream Tea Strawberry Jam - Strawberry Conserve

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by French Tart  

Fantastic! It was so easy to make, taking very little time beyond hulling the berries. My only caution is, make sure you do a "set test" - don't just simmer for 10 minutes and hope for the best! In my case, I was evidently "simmering" far too... — incdeb Jul 17, 2009

Cranberry, Pear and Vanilla Crisp

Posted by fluffernutter  

This was very good, I served it for company and everyone enjoyed it. I doubled the topping (I usually prefer extra "crumble" on my crisps) and I cut down the cranberries to 2 cups and increased the pears - it was tart enough. I did not have a... — incdeb Dec 30, 2008

Roasted Beet Salad With Olives and Feta

Posted by Mercy  

Beets, feta, olives - i was intrigued but uncertain how this flavour combination would come together - it was great! Now, I confess I made several alterations. I had to use boiled beets (I'd already made them before i found the recipe), and I... — incdeb May 21, 2008

Chicken Lentil Soup With Kale

Posted by Chef #668331  

This was really good soup. I used canned lentils as i was out of dry ones (adding them near the end of the cooking time) and i omitted the chicken. You could make it vegetarian easily enough by substituting a good veggie stock for the chicken... — incdeb Apr 10, 2008

Jerk Pork Chops

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Irmgard  

Simple ingredient list, no marinating time, and yet, great flavour! I use lime juice instead of orange and cook the chops on the bbq. Also, I've been know to completely forget to add the soy sauce, and they still turn out yummy — incdeb May 15, 2007

Vegetable Bean Soup

Posted by R.Lynn  

Re: the reviewer who tried freezing this soup. Potatos just don't freeze well, they end up with an awful texture and (as far as i'm concerned) a weird taste. If you omit the potato it would probably freeze OK - you could add cooked potato later... — incdeb Apr 16, 2007

Beef Curry Stir-Fry

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by MizzNezz  

This was good and i will definitely be making it again. The curry flavour was too subtle for my taste, so i would double it next time. — incdeb Mar 4, 2007

Cucumber Raita

Very tasty. I confess i didn't have whole cumin seeds so i very carefully toasted up some ground cumin in a nonstick skillet, which seemed to work ok. — incdeb Mar 4, 2007

Sweet Potato and Lentil Curry With Rice

Posted by Trinity_1966  

Simple to make, nutritious, hearty and delicious all in one recipe. My version was literally fat-free, as i didn't have any curry paste handy and ended up using a dried "spicy curry blend for vegetables" instead. I basically put everything in the... — incdeb Mar 4, 2007

Basil Vinaigrette Dressing

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Lorac  

Great flavour. I loooove fresh basil. I took a previous reviewer's idea and used green onion instead of shallots (shallots are not something i ever have just lying around the house), and used olive oil (indispensible, as far as i'm concerned).... — incdeb Mar 4, 2007

Thai-Style Stir-Fry Vegetables

Posted by digifoo  

Looked very pretty but the only flavour that really stuck to the vegetables was the lime... the rest of the seasonings seemed to be washed away into the pool of liquid at the bottom of the wok. It would make a nice light and refreshing side dish,... — incdeb Mar 1, 2007

Sweet and Hot Pork Stew

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by TiaGem  

I really enjoyed this. I skipped the plaintain or banana (didn't have one on hand) and it was sweet, spicy and flavourful. Very easy to make as well. — incdeb Jan 11, 2007

Pad Thai (Fried Noodles With Shrimp)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Sharlene~W  

I quite liked this. Most pad thai recipes have ingredient lists a mile long, requiring some pre-planning at the grocery. This one is nice and simple, quick and easy, has a very nice flavour. Made a great side dish. I did cut back on the chili... — incdeb Nov 24, 2006

Fresh Peach Cobbler

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Countrywife  

As so many have said before me, this is the BEST peach cobbler recipe EVER. The sugar syrup is the secret. It leaves such a nice glazed sheen over the top of the biscuit layer - proud to serve it, very pretty. Not to mention delicious! I've tried... — incdeb Aug 11, 2006

Carne Guisada (Mexican Beef Stew)

This was a breeze to make and so, so deliciously full of flavour! I had to leave out the jalapeno due to differing heat tolerances in the family, just added pepper sauce to my portion. My son usually complains when we have stew (the standard... — incdeb Jan 20, 2005

Mean Chef's Maple Brine

Posted by ~Bekah~  

This was my first attempt at brining a turkey, and it was a huge success. I grew up eating (and hating) dry turkey. To prevent this, I started using those oven bags but i haven't been happy with the result (tender sure, but not too pretty!). I... — incdeb Dec 28, 2004

Apple Pandowdy

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Elly in Canada  

I loved the caramel sauce - delicious! I wasn't entranced by the biscuit topping though. It was nice that it wasn't too sweet, as it offset the very sweet caramelly apples... but it needs a little more flavour, somehow. I will try with a little... — incdeb Nov 14, 2004

Basil Pesto

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by Bonnie Traynor  

This is very flavourful and delicious. I froze it into ice-cube trays, then transferred them to a ziploc bag for storage. It's really good on homemade pizza (along with or replacing the tomato paste). — incdeb Nov 14, 2004

Nana's Pork Chop and Sauerkraut Skillet

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Lorac  

We quite enjoyed this, but i wasn't 100% wild about the beans in there. I would consider them "optional" - if I don't have enough pork to go around, I'll bulk up the dish by adding a can of beans. Otherwise next time I'd leave 'em out. I did... — incdeb Nov 14, 2004
