More creative fridge cleaning
I absolutely had to finish that colcannon tonight. I don’t like the way potato freezes. Plus I have a strange aversion to serving up leftovers in their original state. So I needed an idea that would work well with a potato mash, bearing in mind I made a potato dough with some yesterday. That left […]
Stuffed baked potatoes.
Another old pre-Ankle Biters resurfaced at Chez KP this evening. The baked potato in all it’s awesomeness. A big old tatie, rubbed with a little oil and baked in a moderate oven for an hour to an hour and a half depending on size. Then cut her open, season, slip in some butter, some panfried […]

It’s a miracle! I made pumpkin appetising!
Of course I always find pumpkin appetising but Son and Heir and the Bread Winner tend to disagree. Not tonight it seems. I fancied a bit of a Sunday roast tonight but didn’t feel like the whole meat thing. So I went with this little nut roast number which was a huge success. Great budget […]
