Softstuff can I put in an order for rum and raisin too, or.......... ooooooh baileys ! Please, pretty please .
Haven't been around much to post, but have been reading along. Since we retired we are busier than ever.
Hope all the house moves and house hunting goes smoothly.
NM I'm always on the edge of my seat with your housing problems. I do hope you get settled / sorted, sooner rather than later.
I'm glad Burtha has posted too.
Hope all the poorlies are on the road to recovery soon. Hugs to all those who need or want any.

Thank you everyone.
I use oil to roast root veg, potatoes, sweet potato chips and butternut squash. I also do a lot of Mediterranean type veg in the summer, aubergine, onion, courgette, pepper, tomato roasted with tarragon and garlic.
It's definately stopped me in my tracks. I'm a bit lost now.0 -

I would put a little rapeseed in a bowl, put veg in and mix with hands, then spread in a tray and roast. No other oil would do, all veg oils apart from rapeseed are too unstable and even rapeseed should always be stored in the fridge and bought in small bottles. I have just bought a 500ml bottle, in dark glass, cost around £5 but I only use a little at a time. I never buy it in plastic either0

Fudds we use a generous glug of olive oil for roasting Med veg (fortnightly frequency), a little of olive rapeseed or sunflower for any other frying & rapeseed for deep fat fryer about once or twice a month. Roasties go into sunflower oil. My cholesterol is around 4.7 and has been for several years, brought down after cutting out processed foods (that helped my IBS too).2021 Decluttering Awards: ⭐⭐🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇 2022 Decluttering Awards: 🥇

TBH you don't need a lot of oil to "roast" veg, it's not like doing roast potatoes that benefit from sitting in a layer of fat.2021 Decluttering Awards: ⭐⭐🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇 2022 Decluttering Awards: 🥇

by unstable I mean that they easily break down to produce free radicals and particularly unstable when heated or in the light (uv causes breakdown)0

Oh Bum - I'd changed from Rapeseed to Coconut oil 'cos I thought it was better!! I'll change back then. roasties are done in Goose Fat & bu**er the consequences - we dont have them every week.
Any chance of some ginger ice cream..........................anyone?Small victories - sometimes they are all you can hope for but sometimes they are all you need - be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle0 -
I'd just use a different oil every day silvasava, and hope that the pros and cons of each balance each other out!0
