Quick question from me:

I made cheese pie yesterday - mash spud (with butter and milk), cheese mixed into mash and then cheese topped and grilled. I made 2 portions thinking I'd have 2nd portion tomorrow for tea. But I've been invited out for dinner with a friend now tomorrow, and am out Thursday night too.

So will it be ok in fridge til Friday? I don't really have room in freezer to put it without eating up something!

TIA

I would eat it!! I would just make sure it was piping hot when I reheated it.

I'd say it would be fine in fridge till Friday too.

Oh I really need some help pls, I'm cooking mutton curry following a recipe on this board and it says to add grated creamed coco!!!!, what is this?

It comes in a block like this I've bought it in the supermarket but you can also get it in Asian shops. If I couldn't get that I'd use a can of creamed coconut

Regards that mash pie - if its gone a grey colour I wouldnt. I had this happen with mash lately , so personally if you are in any doubt I wouldnt (and i would tend to eat stuff if i was sure it was ok!)

regards searching - no , i genuinely don't think people know how to. This forum is a bit more complex than others, so it isn't blindingly obvious. It took me a while to learn how to search, but now I can , it's great the stuff you can find!

But like anything, it's only obvious if you know how

Evening Zippy whatcha cooking?

thanks for replies re my question.

In relation to the search question. I am a more than frequent MSEr and I find searching the OS board can bring up too many different options! I think it may be because a lot of threads are merged so sometimes you can be bombarded with info when all you want is a simple answer IYKWIM.

following me around again i see?:rotfl: I'm cookin up a storm! In my head! Today i had a beany pasta type stoup (started as soup but the pasta expanded so much it's not stoup! ) And HM bread of course

Searching generally brings the best results (for me) when I search titles only - then when stuff has been merged, it's usually under one tidy umberella!

Sounds delish! You took so long to answer but that I'm knackered so I'm off to bed now. I made Chocolate caramel Muffins yesterday. Dark chocolate-y sponge with a big spoonful of caramel in the middle. Yum! Not a quick question at all, but just thought I'd say hi. Night night, take care. x

Are you saying that you'd find it easier to search 10 short threads than 1 merged thread, to find your answer Genuine question - I'd really appreciate knowing the answer

Have you seen this thread by squeaky, which gives loads of tips on searching?
