The third item on my list of things to achieve in 2010 was to “learn to cook 5 beautiful dishes”. I have become a bit of a cookbook addict as of late, in particular the cheap and cheerful Woman’s Weekly cookbooks that I find at the newsagent near my work. (I think these are available in almost every newsagent, but mine seems to stock the entire range. Dangerous!) At this stage, I have settled on 2 definite recipes that I believe I have perfected, and will cook time and time again. The first was the Chilli Con Carne that I recently posted the recipe for. This was so simple to make, doesn’t cost a lot as far as ingredients and time are concerned, and is the perfect dish to make in large amounts to freeze and store for a later date. I will be making my second batch tomorrow, and will continue the newly appointed Sunday night tradition of eating chilli and watching Dr Who. The second recipe is for Tollhouse Cookies that I found in my 500 Cookies recipe book. I will be sure to share the recipe sometime soon, as these are absolutely amazing. I have been browsing through my new cookbooks and have some possible recipe options to try out soon. They are: cuban black bean soup, spaghetti with chilli & leek, cinnamon scrolls with marscepone drizzle and white chocolate fudge bars. If they turn out to be any good, I’ll be sure to share the recipe!
