Oh goodness, my OH loves those, not good for a diabetic! Have you got the new Kindle version, what other goodies are in there?

3. I've found it's best to be 'generous' with the spices, my teaspoons are rather shallow so I make it a good heaped one/half.

A teaspoon is a specific measurement - as well as being the name we use for any spoon we stir tea with. Modern teaspoons aren't as big as older ones.... but the measurement of "a teaspoon" is very specific.

I've been talking to Kenny McGovern on Twitter and thought you might all like to know he has a new book out in May called 'More Takeaway Secrets'. Recipes will include...

Chicken with black pepper sauce
Salt and pepper chips
Madras curry
Vindaloo curry
King rib
American bbq ribs
Bacon and folded egg omelette bagel
Kung pao chicken
Mongolian beef
Crispy beef
Chicken puri
Yakitori chicken
Tasty big burger + sauce
Boneless buffalo wings
Chocolate fudge cake
Ice cream frenzy
...and more!

And I THINK he said to someone else recently chicken katsu curry and sticky rice is in the book too. Yummers!

I'm quite excited about this book. Anyone else??

Just thought I'd quote my earlier post for anyone else who was wondering what's in the book!

See Kenny's post above really. A few nice things in there for me like Egg Fried Rice, Ice Cream Frenzy (McFlurry!) Whopper, Potato Wedges (gorgeous!) BBQ Beans (lovely!) and McD's Apple pies as well.

Interestingly this time he also gives recipes for making your own things like garlic and ginger paste and indian spice mixes which are helpful made in bulk.

Need to buy the paperback version though because trying to cook with a kindle is difficult

I have just pre-ordered the paperback version on Amazon, due out to me around the 22nd May.

Can't wait, I use the first book weekly for the pancakes especially. My girls love them for breakfast or brunch at the weekend.

Have just bought the kindle version. Can't wait to try the egg fried rice :P If i crack that it'll be worth the money for that alone.
Not sure where you get 20% fat mince from though for the burgers. the non-lean in Lidl seems to be 10%

Tesco Value mince is less than 25% fat if that is any good?

It is £2.40 for 800g.

Just wanted to say we are blown away by the results of the cookie recipe in this book, will never bake a different cookie recipe now.... I fact the other day I got carried away making them and realised I had no eggs....so instead i added a dash of milk and a heaped tbsp of nutella....omg, amazing....like a really marbled effect, and really great texture
