I do hope you are feeling better, Weezl, and not pushing yourself too hard too soon !

Off the top of my head, I'd add carbonara, amatriciana and bean curry to the level 1 list. I'll give it more of a think soon as I get a chance

Thanks for the pep talk, ISOM and mangojoesno1fan :T

ETA: Oh, I see Arty has bean curry in level 3 ! Oh dear, that's quite a bit of a difference of opinions.... :rotfl:

I would definitely put bean curry as level 1. But then I'd also have the cottage pie & chili there as well, as they're things I make all the time and basically involve just dumping things into a pot and letting them cook. The puddings definitely level 3. Just my opinion!

Ok here is my opinion

Level 1

Both pates
Omelette
Soups
All pasta dishes
Risi e bisi
Porridge
Apple curd
Chicken pie
Pizza
Carrot cake
Pancakes
Chilli
Cottage pie
Houmous
Bean curry
Veggie burger

Level 2
Onion tart (for cooking time only)
Bread
Nut butter (for the crushing of the nuts not the recipe itself)
Risotto
Scones, biscuits and savoury snacks

Level 3
Bacon pudding (only for the cooking time as you need to make sure the water doesnt boil dry)

This might cause you more problems than it solves as i think it would depend on your ability and confidence to start with but i hope i am proved wrong:)

The spicy rissoles we had last night were really scrummy and too much for my sons big appetites. Sh.. don't tell them they were veggie burgers:)

We served them with tomato relish and DS2 decided he was bored with wedges so we had potato rosti (made by him). Rosti was too greasy with the burgers/rissoles

Rating the recipes in order of difficulty was difficult as I always got my youngsters to make bread first before anything else as you can't really ruin it and it gives confidence.

Level One
porridge
Apple curd
tomato relish
soups
bean curry
humous
veggie burger
carbonara
bread
scones
biscuits
omelette
chilli
tomato pasta
nut butter
spicy bean pate

level two
carrot cake
pasta alfredo (roux sauce)
bacon pudding
risi e bisi and risotto -because you need to saty with it all the time!
chicken pie and bacon and onion puding
cottage pie
pizza

level three
onion tart

I have sorted the recipes into one stage, two stage and more than two stages (onion tart)

All are things I would make with year sevens except the baking blind etc. and the steamed puddings, more for lack of time than anything else. We made pizza by making the dough one lesson and the toppings next lesson. Nothing at all is what would be thought of as difficult.

I am so disorganised today I haven't looked to see what is tonight's dinner. Must go as I will have three hungry people here soon.
