@Walkdengirl silent courgette cake

I would dearly love to know if any of her FM have actually made any of her food. Just reading the recipe makes you go
.
"transformed from slop in a tin" to.....slop on a plate
That's almost the same recipe as the chocolate courgette cake!!! What a con.
I'll make that @That Forensic Man

Blending courgettes with oil and marmalade??
Well done to the Fraus who made something. I did think the bread @House of Carbonara made may come out edible but her recipes are so bad she can’t even get that right!
I’ll make the lemon cakes on Saturday. I very rarely cook so may be wrong but 2 eggs seems a lot for only 100g of flour but I will follow the recipe exactly!

Sadly that probably is how she's been getting away with it. Her middle-class supporters never try the recipes and if a Poor says they don't work then obviously that Poor is too stupid and/or lazy to make it work properly. Everyone knows Poors are too thick to be able to cook, right? That's why we need all these Jack Monroe books, after all.
Exactly this. She can't cook for toffee, thinks she's so clever she can say whatever she likes and it will be believed, and her sycophantic followers believe the sun shines out of her backside. It would be hilariously funny if it wasn't for the fact that her so called recipes are aimed at the poorest, most vulnerable in society. People that cannot afford to waste money or ingredients. Makes me livid.
So have I (Delia's), and naan, and all type of breads (I
bread, obvs
). I am always game for trying a new recipe, in case I stumble upon the bread Graal by accident.The thing is that in her other recipe she grates and then squeezes the water out of them, which is what I think should be done, but not in this recipe so it will be stodgy and heavy as hell. I think I need to buy marmalade so it will have to be the weekend when I make it.Blending courgettes with oil and marmalade??
(Btw I chop herbs in a mug with scissors, it works really well and is quicker and less messy, it's probably the only thing she's got right)
I’m obsessed with every last one of you. Absolutely sublime.
I screenshotted the recipe lists and chose one at random by stabbing the screen and zooming in. Mega thanks to @Notmycat for this FORENSIC work and also, lol, RIP my camera roll:
Please, @That Forensic Man, can I have rhubarb and custard pancakes for my sins? And please can you share the recipe @Notmycat. Thank space you.
I don’t like custard so I really am starting on the back foot here.
Will make next week as am out of office
at the mo.

Thankspaceyou! Very different quantities to the recipe on the website, though both purport to serve 2.
Book/website:
Bacon - 150g /100g
Onion - 1/0.5
Rice - 180g/140g
Brie - 60g/40g
(the remaining ingredients are the same quantities)
Would the canal advise to use the book recipe quantities or the website quantities?
Thank you muchly! Will probably get round to it next week after a run of night shifts. What’s better, when feeling hideous, than cooking yourself some hideous slop?!
Combination of both as all quantities and ingredients are interchangeable
at this. When is a pancake not a pancake? When it’s a sloppy pile of apple sauce, soya custard, oat milk and tinned-fruit-at-random. Hahahahahahahahaha. Joker.
