Please ask your Chefs to watch any of Rick Stein's programmes to see how to explain a recipe while cooking. Rick's commentary is concise and to the point and keeps you interested. I find many of them say unnecessary things, such as - add the onions to the bottom of the pan - where else would you put them? You cannot suspend them in mid air. I could go on and on but I think you will get my drift.
In spite of this I really enjoy the programme and watch it every day.

Georgie I have tried the web site address you gave for Lotte but I just can't get on. I guess I'll just have to keep trying.

Vanwacker, please ignore my previous message. Being new to this game I'm afraid I got it wrong. This recipe is for sticky toffee pudding.
However, I did find Nigella's recipe for sticky chocolate pudding on -

www.epicurious.com.

In the box at the top left hand corner type in sticky chocolate pudding and go.

Good luck!!!!!!

Hi all, I found this recipe by going in to the "Ask Jeeves" web site - typed in Kylie Kwong radical chicken and it was first on the list which appeared.
Ask Jeeves is a great web site - I think you will find anything you are looking for here.

I use only wholemeal bread. I usually buy Warburton or Sainsbury organic (wrapped, small, sliced - think it costs about 75p). I always freeze it and have never had any problems. I keep it in the wrapper, make sure it is not too tightly packed, and I can take out 2 or whatever number of slices I need at any one time.

I shop on line at Sainsbury. I have just checked their website and Taglierini is listed in the Pasta section.

There are 5 Lamb Shank recipes on this site, although none include Orzo. Could you not just cook the Orzo as per packet instructions and perhaps add herbs which would compliment the Lamb????????

Love Grub, sorry I gave you the wrong info.
You will find what you are looking for in the undernoted bbc website. When you get there just type sweet chilli dipping sauce in the search box and go.

Just a suggestion, but if the Orzo takes say 15 minutes to cook, could it not be added to the pot/casserole 15 minutes before the end of cooking time?

Lisa, just in case you missed my message at What's the Point I'll post it here also.

Go to the website of the Gin & Vodka Organisation at

[link]

Click 'Enter' then hit on 'Cocktail' then 'Gin Recipes' scroll down and you will find a recipe for Gin and Tonic Sorbet - it's nearly at the bottom of the page.

If you like Gin or Vodka there are quite a few recipes to try.

Suzzy Q

On a Canadian TV cookery website someone was commenting on a Nigella Lawson recipe to the effect that as they could not get either Marigold or Benedicta products they used 'Better than Bouillon Vegetable Soup Base'.
I did a bit of searching, and to cut a long story short if you go in to Google and type -

Superior Touch Store

you will find this product.

I hope this is helpful to you.
