Beer bread
This is the best place to ask - I know.:) I was trying to remember how I made beer bread rolls, that I used to wrap up in foil, and cook in the BBQ coals. I am sure we used larger, but it has been so long since I made them, I have forgotten. I did try and google this, but, I was not that pleased with the results. Any and…

Fresh party food ideas
I've organised a small birthday party for my 2 year old next week (very small - 7 adults, 3 kids). I am providing lunch for the kids and have asked adults to sort themselves out (no complaints there). I was also going to put some party rings and Oreos in a bowl for the little ones to pick at if wanted and that's it…

savoury cracker/biscuit recipe?
Hello. I'm hoping that someone has a favourite savoury biscuit/cracker recipe they could share. I always think that the crackers in the shops are either rather dull but inexpensive or look more interesting (wth seeds and stuff) but seem to be 'speciality' and therefore pricey. I'm sure they can be made better at home but…

Banana skin cake, review
Hi, I recently tried a chocolate version of the banana skin cake shown on 'love food hate waste' but subbed some cocoa for some of the flour, and used gluten-free flour as my partner is coeliac. All my family loved it! Remarkably banana-y for something without actual banana in it. And a great way to use an otherwise wasted…

Instant Pot Recipes Please
I have finally given in to temptation and bought myself an Instant Pot multicooker. I want to make the most of my new purchase so do any of you lovely people have any favourite recipes to make in it? I would also be really grateful for advice on how to stop rice/porridge etc from sticking to it. Thank you, Moorhen:)
