I had one. Nothing but trouble. Took up most of the kitchen and was very slow.

I've got a food processor though.

What variety..I got one off freecycle (to try out) then an cheap kenwood.. Now I have a trusted and sturdy Magimix le mini - does everything - even dough for bread

Only downside is when you lose the disc shaft and it costs you £12 to get a new one

I will have a chocolate and beetroot brownie, thanks Keiss.

Mike, a food processor is only any use when you take it out of the box......... so what recipe are you going to share with us first. Whats on the Christmas Day menu?

Och that's sounds disgusting...Yeah second that...Mike take the food processor out of the box and get making those breadcrumbs for that yummy meat loaf and I'll be over in a jiffy tee hee...

In defence of chocolate with beetroot - it's scrummy! Doesn't taste of beetroot but is suitably chocolately. The beetroot seems to make it moister so it's really soft.

Good job we arent all alike then. I say no accounting for taste but then each to their own

No need to defend it for me Miggy, they are two of my favourite ingredients. Fancy sharing the recipe?

Isn't that like strawberrys and black pepper... it brings out a certain flavour? I know chocolate in chilli is fab too!

Recipe here for those who want to have a go...really scrummy! Did have a go without the beetroot (Hugh F-W gives recipe in his book "Everyday"), but it was less moist and the boys didn't like it as much (they hate beetroot!!)

Actually I know who do bake....

Hippy Left wing students for some reason LOL

Easy answer. Hippies - cook everything, wide selection of ingrediants in kitchen and a severe lack of evil capitalist ready meals. Left wing - Greenham Common and gas stoves and all that. Students - Living on cheap ingrediants and preferably highly calorific cakes as they don't know when the bank manager will let them eat next.....

Don't follow the example of the Newcastle student. Cooked up a big tray of porridge. When cold cut it into sections and lived off it exclusively for weeks, well until he was admitted to Newcastle General with a mystery illness. The first case of rickets in the city for a couple of hundred years!

After almost 3 months of blissful unemployment, and settling Rodders in, I have picked up a 6 month contract doing what I am best at (No, definitely not cooking ) and I start on Monday for 4 days handover before taking over from 2nd January.

And it is 5 minutes from home in rush hour so I can get back for Rodders at lunchtime, no bother.

I am one happy bunny.
