@heretoreaditall2019 I had shingles on my back when I was 27. The thing I most remember is the nerve pain. It was like being electrocuted. I believe it’s worse having it on your face. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Hope you feel better soon @heretoreaditall2019 
No word on vaccine yet, unfortunately. I suspect the sheer volume of people in my area is delaying things.Thank you guys - surprisingly it’s cool apart from the nausea from the medicine?! And struggling to swallow a 800mg pill (why would you make them so big??). Am home now thankfully
@Pixieboots I’m sorry you’re having to shield for longer. There was a lot of #discourse on this on Facebook this morning, apparently GPs and councils etc found out when you did which isn’t gr8 in terms of providing support?! Have you found out a vaccine date yet?
@Nottonightbabe omg what a nightmare - is there such a thing as a priority list to get this seen to?! You can’t be without water it’s inhumane!! xx
Lads can you help with a vegetarian food suggestion please?
I would like some savoury (not curry) rice, ideally baked in the oven. I do have onion and garlic, dried white rice, stock cubes, salt and pepper and basic spices. Also have tinned pulses and dried lentils (green and red). Frozen veg.
I don’t have the energy to do much more than fry off stuff and bung it all in a slow cooker or oven dish. I’ve seen a few recipes but I want something tried and tested really, as if it doesn’t work I might cry.
Thanks in advance! Hungry Hotes (not really, am making do with a pizza rn)

This is in the Green Roasting Tin - you can probably adapt it with what you have? Like maybe swap the amount of coconut milk for stock and the other stuff for your lentils and bits and bobs?

Thanks Poca however don’t have most of the ingredients!
I like doing a baked cajun chicken & rice. I usually use Hairy bikers cajun spice mix, peppers, onions, pinto beans or chickpeas
This is what we had the other day, so delicious!
I don’t have coconut milk, soy sauce, ginger and can’t risk chili at the moment so I think by the time I swap those out it’s not really a recipe?
Cheers, I’m anti-maverick
I cannot claim this is an extensively tried and tested recipe. Or indeed a recipe really, but I like tomatoey rice and you can do that by baking it. I’ve done it before and it does give you a nice crispy bit (if you like crispy rice).
This is Jamie’s version, but I’ve never done it with saffron. Method is basically the same as what I’d do though, just -saffron and maybe +garlic at the frying onion stage. If you wanted to throw some tinned pulses in too I think it would make a decent meal and maybe even some frozen veg (depending a little on what frozen veg you have available).
Also I use tinned tomatoes rather than tomato purée, which probably means mine is a bit looser. But either would work. Honest. Not a JM substitution.
If I had feta I’d be tempted to sprinkle some over it either before it goes in the oven or when it comes out, your choice!
Dried herb/spice wise - paprika would be nice. Bit of chilli maybe. Job done.
Baked saffron rice | Rice recipes | Jamie Oliver recipes
A perfect fluffy rice recipe with saffron, yoghurt and sun-dried tomato paste. From Jamie Oliver’s book 5 Ingredients: Quick & Easy Food.
All my other suggestions probably involve spices that lean towards the curry flavoured, but I’ll have a ponder and if I can think of anything else I’ll come back.
Ooooo unless you have a pepper or two lying around?!
@heretoreaditall2019 and @Pixieboots sending you both massive hugs
@HotesTilaire too late for tonight but i absolutely love mujadara which is rice, lentils and caramelised onions. Can send you a recipe if you like!
Another Rachel Roddy success tonight! Literally just onions, celery, garlic, white beans, greens and rocket with plenty of parmesan, olive oil and chilli flakes. She's just SO GOOD

Rachel Roddy’s Roman beans and wilted greens recipe| Kitchen Sink Tales
Kitchen Sink Tales: Beans are treated royally in Rome, as are mounds of seasonal greens. When cooked together, they make for a staple, incidentally vegetarian, Italian meal. This is a pure example of ‘cucina povera’ – poor cuisine – though it tastes anything but.
God. I love this sort of food. This looks utterly lush@heretoreaditall2019 and @Pixieboots sending you both massive hugs
