Posted by French Tart  

Update: HI FT, make this again over the weekend with cauliflower instead of the eggplant and boy it is good. I did rub some spices with oil on the cauliflower and popped in the oven with the tomatoes for 15 minutes to give it a head start Thanks... — Brit in Texas Sep 14, 2009

Why-I-Joined-Zaar Carrot Cake

Posted by Lennie  

Wonderful. I'm not a huge cake fan but I wanted to make a cake for some friends on Thursday. It was a huge success both with them and at work, although the later didn't get as much as they would have liked. I am now a fan of your carrot cake.... — Brit in Texas Aug 14, 2009

Gluten Free French Bread

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by GlutenFreeGirl  

I posted a question in the Celiac forum for a recipe that didn't have the texture of cake and wasn't sweet. DH hadn't found any wheat free bread he liked plus Celiac SIL was coming to visit. Pammybo gave me this link for which I am very... — Brit in Texas Apr 20, 2009

Thanks for another winner FT, well 3 winners in fact as I also made Spicy Aubergine (Eggplant) and Red Pepper Tapenade - Dip & North African Ras El Hanout Spice Mix and the meal was outstanding.

The Old Manor House Traditional Victorian Christmas Pudding

This was wonderful and, as you said, nice and light and fruity. I halved the recipe with no problem. I used a non alcoholic beer in place of the stout and brandy and only needed a little over 2 fluid ounces to get to right dropping consistency.... — Brit in Texas Dec 29, 2008

Baked Tilapia With Lots of Spice

Posted by ladypit  

Wonderful. We had this last night for dinner and I'm currently eating a piece with salad for lunch. I did cut back on the salt to 3/4 tsp and I'm glad I did as we felt this was even a tad on the too salty side and we're both salt freeks. So,... — Brit in Texas Oct 2, 2008

North African Ras El Hanout Spice Mix

Posted by French Tart  

A beautiful blend of spices. I used this in your Easy Crock Pot Moroccan Chicken, Chickpea and Apricot Tagine and it was amazing. I had to half the recipe due to the lack of the full quantities of some of the ingredients and didn't have any of the optional to hand. I'm looking forward to... — Brit in Texas Sep 25, 2008

Wonderful rub that I've used several times now. I've done a whole chicken in the rotisserie a few times, BBQ chicken thighs and it also worked well on fish. After the first time I now cut back on the salt and oil and it's still wonderful.... — Brit in Texas Jun 24, 2008

Potato'n Salmon Cakes

I can't believe I haven't rated this before as I've made them 3 or 4 times so far. I have left over salmon and potatoes from last night and this recipe is perfect. I'm glad I checked out your photos as I forgot we still have some fresh asparagus... — Brit in Texas Mar 27, 2008

Grandma's Cheese Straws

I have made these twice now and they have been a huge success. I do turn them during baking to get a more even color. I cut out in shapes using a cookie cutter, maybe I'll do some festive ones for the holidays. I know I will be making these for... — Brit in Texas Dec 11, 2007

Absolutely wonderful. I made a few changes to what I had on hand - didn't have brandy so I used red wine, veg broth in place of beef stock and it still was fantastic. Used fillet mignon - what a treat. I'll make sure I have brandy next time as... — Brit in Texas Nov 5, 2007

We really love this seasoning. I just made the second batch and didn't feel the need to change a thing ... which is unlike me! I do add lemon or lime juice and worcestershire sauce as another rater suggested. I use a lot of Quorn instead of meat... — Brit in Texas May 11, 2007
