Today was St Patrick's day and I baked a carrot cake for a friend who is in hospital. Delivered it during visiting last night and have just been informed that staff and patients thought it marvelous.
It was the Ramsay recipe with Delia's topping.

4oz self raising flour.
4oz caster sugar.
2 eggs - I used medium.
1 small orange (or use lemon)
Cook in 7 1/2 inch greased lined sandwich tin - I used a 6 inch tin and cooked for longer time.
Cream marge/butter with sugar. Beat in eggs. Then beat in grated orange/lemon rind and juice. Fold in 1/2 oz coconut and flour. Put in tin and sprinkle remaining 1/2oz coconut over cake.
Bake - centre - oven - 190 - 30 minutes or until cooked. I cooked at 180 as my oven is hot with the new fan.
Thanks,I look forward to trying this one.It doesn't seem like a lot of coconut though,does it have a good coconut flavour?0 -
Having read the "what was your childhood diet like" thread, I was inspired to make a HM meat and potato pie which was yummy. I also made a batch of bread rolls for packed lunches tomorrow then a rather nice fresh cream & jam Victoria sponge. XGrocery challenge June 2016

hi all..
well this morning I made some sausage rolls,
I have to say that I cheated and used ready made puff pastry !!
We have a super local butcher and he sells lincoln sausage meat that he makes in his shop, It so nice, and very meaty and not to fatty when cooked!
I added a finely chopped onion and a finely chopped apple,
used a little bit of egg wash and made 8 large sausage rolls, the plan was to have them for lunch - which we did, leaving 4 for next couple of days... well that was a silly ideathey are all gone!
