Do you think Jack knows that tomatoes have a taste, and aren’t just some form of natural food colouring?

Oh Jesus thank you, but I don’t even know what to say 🤦🏼‍♀️ That humus will be pure slop won’t it.
And thank god for those with tomato allergies, your salvation is here in the form of a pompous dipshit, here to lead you into the revolution.

@Notmycat okay please show me monster bums, I feel like a blended tin of chickpeas would be a lazy contribution on my part and don’t get me started on the sauce.

Eta goddammit I've clicked on the wrong thread. Bloody cooking ninnies I thought main thread was so bored we were resorting to burning things.

Will still start fires for attention 😬

These sound intriguing and yummy, but I fear I will be sorely disappointed!
As for some of the others, like the pastitsio and lentil keema, I have recipes that work (pinch of nom) so wouldn't risk Jack's version!

Whaaa? The only "chicken" in this recipe is 2 stock cubes? What a fraud!
duck that noise. I've already made the executive decision to put some actual chicken in. And I'm not having beans in a soup again. Those two things aside, I'll stick to the brief.

am I being blind? Why are stock cubes not in the ingredients list? Nor are herbs…

I think the sugar hack is that all sugar is the same. So you can whizz up caster sugar in a bullet blender to make icing sugar etc. 🙄

Well, I've just made the microwave peanut butter and jam brownie.
It was nice, but rather rich. Husband has said I need to make it again.
Next time I'll probably add the sugar before the flour, as it had a gritty texture.

Things I can afford, if I decide to bake a cake:
icing sugar.

Things I can’t afford, if I decide to bake a cake:
A bullet blender,
the electricity required to turn caster sugar into icing sugar in a blender,
The risk that it doesn’t work.

The irony of someone claiming to help those who are short on cash to feed themselves while providing badly researched recipes that waste valuable ingredients and time doesn't pass me by.
After my mother, the next person to help me learn to cook was Delia Smith. I bought her cook books but her FREE website is an invaluable resource, with no begging bowl in site.

Delia Smith's recipes are like having your mum/granny/half the local WI in the kitchen with you. Jack could never.
