BIB: Help me-why would there be chunks?I am dreading making her version of bechamel. And not even because of the removal of dairy, just because her method sounds so damn gross (sieve out any chunks).

Do try the veggie mousakka dear heart
Can you imagine? Not only my most hated food but Jack Monroeās version of my most hated food. I cry.
I made this once and I did have to sieve lumps. It was still tit, the lot went in the bin.
Oh gosh no, I didnāt mean a Jack recipe! I want you to enjoy it!
As somebody who makes parmigiana fairly regularly - no way one solitary aubergine is enough. Unless you are cooking for a family of mice.
Ffs.

That's cheating Jack, using ready made vegan pastry...
Mee-fwoy LOL.
I was looking forward to this, but whipping coconut cream feels a bit dull. Edit: my bad, the cream off coconut milk

Again her lack of teaching a basic skill is astonishing. If you can make a roux you can make a sauce-bĆ©chamel, cheese, bread, etc. It also teaches you why you add flour when you do and the importance of cooking it off so when you add it to beef for a stew you know why youāve done it and what it will do. These are the skills that enable really effective meal planning. Sheās such a tosser.
@Mendacious Trumpet Tiramufu but to make it you get the honour of making another Jack recipe for birthday cake.

If we are able to nominate thread titles for here , can we please have this?!
Yessss, now we're cooking with
How is zucchini bread/cake revolutionary? Everybody and their mother has a recipe; even vegan recipes abound. It is so terribly basic and tired, easy to make, and cheap, too. You can find recipes using oil or butter, chocolate chips or coca nibs, vanilla or...duck it. Jack's recipes are plucked from the public domain and then tweaked with the deft touch of a meth addict to become truly unpleasant food experiences. Her silent zucchini cake. Zucchini. Zucchini. It looks bleeping awful and I don't care what magic or science makes it good.
I'm off to bed as ok need to sleep or do you want me to die?
If you want any recipes just tag me and I'll add the relevant recipes in the morning and tag you, now duck off tender ones

Mee-fwoy 
does she want me to stop breathing? Obvs the Ā« euille Ā» sound is hard for English speakers but where the duck did the w come from?
I died of cringe when she sang Boooulevaaaaard but her butchering French may just be the thing that finishes me off. Send undertakeros.
I told my Old Harold (he hasnāt LEFT) that Friday night dinner was Jackslop Brie & bacon risotto. He gave me a look that clearly spelled takeaway pizza. He is watching the slopalong with a strategic bucket.

I have one. It's THAT MAN'S recipe
100g* self raising flour
100g* yoghurt
Pinch of baking powder
* can use any amount as long as they're equal
Mix it all together
Leave to set for a couple of minutes
Tear/cut into portions, flour surface and rolling pin and roll out thinly into shape
Put into hot pan (oil if required but up to you)
Turn over when mixture starts to bubble up
One thing I like to do is when nearly ready is to put a bit of cheese on the flatbread and then fold it over and cook till it melts (almost immediately). Not dissimilar to the Speedy Folded Flatbreads recipe in THAT MAN's recent niche-stealing TV programme - that recipe was exactly the same above only with added water so the bread is lighter.
So that's another one where the book values are 344% more than the costed website, really makes you think
Thank(space)you tender one x
I've also added the lists to the wiki along with some online resources

That pathetic little birthday cake. I'm DECEASED. Guaranteed to get a lovely "is there no beginning to your talents?" from the birthday honoree.
Thank you very much, dear heart.
Will definitely try that - and also make the t*atbread for science.
