25.01.2022 Hi everybody, how cold is it?? I have a great pumpkin and sweet corn soup recipe that is great for the cold weather. When I was a kid, I didn't like the strong flavour of pumpkin so this recipe tones down the pumpkin and adds a little bit of sweetness. I hope you like it. If you try this recipe please let me know how it turned out. See you all, enjoy!! PUMPKIN & SWEET CORN SOUP 2 tablespoons butter 1 onion, finely chopped... 1 kg of cooked pumpkin 300 ml cream 600 ml vegetable or chicken stock 1 tin of creamed corn Salt & pepper Sour cream & chives for garnishing Melt the butter in a large saucepan over a medium heat, add onions and fry (stirring frequently) until cooked. Stir in the pumpkin, then add the cream and stir until combined. Add the stock and simmer for 5 minutes, add in the corn and stir. Blend the soup with a hand mixer or blender until smooth. Serve with a dollop of sour cream and sprinkle with chives. Add three tablespoons of curry powder (after the stock) for a spicy soup. Serves 8.
22.01.2022 Hello all, today I am going to share with you a recipe for an amazing quiche - no need to make a pastry and it all goes in one mixing bowl, enjoy!!!!!! QUICHE no pastry 4 eggs 1 chopped onion... 2 cups chopped bacon 1 cups milk cup plain flour 1 cups grated tasty cheese 1 cup frozen spinach (optional) Salt & pepper Grease an oven dish and place oven on 180o. In a large mixing bowl - whisk milk & eggs together, then sift the flour into the bowl ensuring to break up any lumps. Add the bacon, onion & cheese and mix well. Pour into the greased quiche dish and place in the oven for 45-55 minutes or until golden brown. If you have too much quiche mixture for the oven dish, then grease smaller dishes these are great for later, they freeze well. Great for parties, grease a muffin pan and pour mixture into moulds, they need less baking so keep an eye on them.
