Re: What are you baking this week?

One thing one of you may be able to help me with - when I bake the little tarts, I was wondering how long for. if the large size is 25 mins, then I imagine the smaller ones will be around 15 mins. Hmm ...

Re: What are you baking this week?

I got a pack of 6 small sweet all butter pastry shells in M & S this morning to use up the left over lemon custard as there isn't enough for another large sized one.

Re: Left over chip shop chips ...

MM, it's the lamb burgers that are in the deal, which we had with the reheated chips that we did in the oven rather than the MW.

The lamb burgers are really good, and there are some nice fishy options as part of the multibuy too.

Re: Left over chip shop chips ...

That's what I do..👍 No air fryer! But last night we crisped/warmed them in the oven and had them with our lamb burgers (the Waitrose ones are excellent and included in the 3 for £12 multibuy). Yes, I agree about not warming them in the MW. Scully, love the idea of an aloo saag - I can't remember wh...

Re: What are you baking this week?

It was terrific. I've got some of the filling left over so plan to get a pack of 4 small tart shells and see how many it will fill - I think, probably, 2. Trying to sieve icing sugar over it was a lot harder; mine was very uneven, and on bought ones it is always so even! I don't know what the trick ...

Left over chip shop chips ...

We have a lot of left over chips and I'm wondering what ideas you have for them?

I think the only thing I've done with them in the past is make a tortilla/Spanish omelette type dish, which is delicious, but are there any other interesting uses for them out there??

Thanks :thumbsup

Nigella's traybake chicken thighs with peas, leeks and dill. Very successful, as usual.

Interesting to see your link to Downshiftology, EM, my NY friend has bought me her book and it will be making its way to me via one of DS1's friends on their next trip to London!
