Love it NL what fun Have to dust the cooker down, mine is still like new Will also shake the cobwebs off some old recipes I have, please make a list of all the tools we will need Best Wishes linell.

You do realise only weight watcher recipes will be allowed in January? Maybe we should do one in December -while I am at home and before the diet season starts

No!! full fat...when it walks it wobbles recipes!!

Ok here is mine....

Pork with Lemon and Garlic (this is a simplified version of a traditionasl dish from the Marche region on Italy
-Pork fillet pockets are stuffed with ham ( prosciutto) and herbs.
and serve with maybe mashed potato or pasta...or chips! your choice on the veg!

Ok- I've been looking for something different to Pork for my offering.

Found a recipe called Fishermans Cobbler- it's sort of White fish covered in a cheese scone type topping.
Doesn't sound too scary to try.

Can i have a go? Can i ?

I love Indonesian food and this is so easy to make.Well, i think so.

Nasi Goreng Jawa (Javanese Fried Rice).

Directions:

1. Blend or grind the spice paste. Set aside.

I'll be having a go. They all sound yummy so far. It'll be hard to choose. I remember a dish called Janssen's Temptation. Now how did it go? It was Scandanavian ... Gardener, do you know of it?

Here it is. It's Swedish.\:

Janssen's Temptation.

INGREDIENTS

* 10 large potatoes - peeled and sliced thin
* 2 onion, peeled and sliced
* 20 anchovy fillets, drained and brine reserved
* 295 ml cream
* 15 g bread crumbs
* 30 g butter

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 475 degrees (225 degrees C).
2. Place a layer of sliced potatoes onto the bottom of a large baking dish. Top the potatoes with a layer of sliced onions, and then a layer of anchovy fillets. Repeat layers up to the top of the dish, ending with a layer of potatoes on top. Drizzle about 2/3 of the cream over the dish, and the reserved liquid from the anchovies. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs over the top, and dot with pieces of butter.
3. Bake for 30 minutes on the middle rack of the oven. Add the remaining cream, and continue baking for another 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
