sorry but :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:that's exactly what my Blobby Bread looked like, a giant deformed mushroom with a squared-off stem :rotfl:

you should have taken a pic I promise I will if I have any more epic fails of my own :A


spookily :eek: my daughter has just this minute texted me asking what she needs to make cornbread! she's going to a Canadian Thanksgiving (seems they celebrate earlier than the USA) & everyone's bringing along a dish


I've seen recipes involving chilli & cheese & other stuff like that, surely those can't be sweet?

I wish I had taken a pic now!:rotfl:It was action stations though to try to save it.........I didn't! But the kids still ate some of the centre with melted choc on..........sad!

Wow, what a coincidence with the cornbread. chilli/cheese would be great. I like food with a kick:drool:. I think I would prefer it with a more savoury edge.

What are you like.............guru Swan! You always turn up the answers!:A

guru Swan :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I like it

does this mean I'll have to change my avatar again? :think: very undignified with my beak stuck in that Nutella jar


I have a recipe for Jamie Oliver's Chilli Cheese Cornbread, I haven't tried it myself, but have seen some reviews that rave about it

I can't post it on the open forum because of copyright issues, & can't seem to find a link on-line, but I could PM you the recipe?

Certainly! That would be fab! Want to serve it with chilli, so this would be fab!

is it ok if I do it later this afternoon? I have to go out shortly & I'm very slow at typing

I can quickly tell you what you need though & I'll PM the full recipe when I get back
I want to make it myself now I've read it through

60g butter
2 onions
sweetcorn (2 cobs, but I'd use frozen or canned)
4 large eggs
325g coarse cornmeal/polenta
250 ml full fat milk
baking powder
6 Tablespoons plain flour
140g cheddar
3 fresh green chillies
olive oil

I'm going to make some sun dried tomato bread this weekend. Picked up a pack of dried toms in sazbugs the other day, but now i've read the recipe book, it says to use those in olive oil - bah :mad:

could you give them a soak?

maybe pour some boiling water over then once they've softened a bit mix in some oil?

yeah i might well do that.

Just made some ciabatta from a mix I got from Lidl the other day. It's very nice, Yum

the kneading action will break the tomatoes up once they're in the mix, they just need to be softened so you're not getting chewy lumps
I only know this because I tried it for the first time myself very recently

that is a nice mix & Lidl's white bread flour is better than anything you get in the big supermarkets, even better than the branded ones (I may have told you this already it's my age ... I think )
