Cook off for - MAY- to be decided so get your recipes posted

Post by Northern Lass »

Hi guys...

We are going to have a Monthly Cook in or Cook off!

Get those recipe books down and look for somat really great that we can all have a go at cookin'!

So once a month we will feature a recipe from someone and we will all have a go at cooking it.
Hopefully all on the same evening!
or if not certainly that same week..... then report back the following week.

So the challenge is post a recipe
we will then vote on which one... I will put a poll up when we have a few in.

Just a main course to start with see how it goes.
and just the name of the dish to start with please, then whoever wins can post the cookin method too.....ok? easy peasy eh?
We will then all cook it and let everyone know whether we liked it or not and putting the following on...

:grin: = Loved it!
:-) =Good!
:? = not too sure!
:( = Sorry hated it!

and feel free to take a photo!

So come on all you budding Gordon Ramseys....who will start the ball rolling?
What are we going to be cooking in the last week of the month?

:wink:

Well I've done last months at last :lol:

TARRAGON CHICKEN WITH LIME AND CREME FRAICHE

Verdict: = :-)
The chicken cooked to perfection and we loved the sauce, but the chicken could have done with having more flavour.
