Finally, can anyone point me in the direction of the fish cake recipe as I can't seem to locate it on the EG webpage?

Thanks!

It's not on the Economy Gastronomy website but you can find it here

Clutterfree cooking chorizo will probably be in with the sausages as they are raw.....the slices and chunks of chorizo are already cooked....if you cant get the raw cooking chorizo am sure you could just substitute the cooked stuff.:D

I always eat a slice when I'm chopping up a large chorizo. Am I eating uncooked meat?

Chorizo is either cured or uncured. Cooking chorizo are uncured, therefore softer and need cooking, more like fresh sausages. Cured chorizo can be eaten as is (ie raw) as they are preserved by the curing process, like salami, parma ham etc which are all raw.

I eat several slices -it's the cured salami sort-don't panic. I've never seen cooking chorizo anywhere.

Big,big THANK YOU for the brownie recipe - I am very much of the Jackie era :-)

Is it level or heaped tablespoons of cocoa powder please?[/QUOTE]


Am so sorry for the delay in replying, I've been out of the office until today!

I used heaped tablespoons of cocoa.

Been watching the show with interest. They could have done a weeks shopping for much cheaper. I did it for five of us on 20 quid a few weeks ago. I've posted about it in the food and groceries forum (in the wrong place so I've been told! Ooops!) It still makes good viewing though and we've got some good ideas from it.

I've had a read of your meal plan ABmum. Great sounding cheap veggie meals there but I have to ask how your kids coped without a proper lunch (toast and a biscuit or scone) and just cornflakes or toast for breakfast? Mine wouldn't stand for it and I'd be worried about their ability to perform well at school.
