Just for the fatties...

[Duncan]

Well it sounds like there's no down side to giving it a go... maybe I'll gradually begin piecing something together..

Did you use extra thick double cream or just double cream? With the extra thick stuff you basically have to spoon it out of the tub and by the time you've melted a load of cheddar through it it's good and thick.

doh, my bad, used double cream not the thick stuff. Will do next time tho.

i got a couple of photo's of it to come soon, once I get round to taking them off my camera, perhaps tomorrow,

I think people would feel ripped off when they realised they could have got all my recipes for free in this thread!

..."MY recipes"?

Just to let everybody know that my dear boyfriend Duncan here is a filthy recipe thief and even though some of those recipes actually ARE his, some of them he just _stole_ off me (or my mother). Just wanted to point this wrong out in case any commercial gain in the future will be accomplished due to these high fat recipes - because I will sue his ass!

I hope you've enjoyed the recipes nevertheless. Don't give him alone all the credit, though!

One recent gratin-type recipe of mine that both of us like (before he gets a chance to post it):

2 courgettes
1 (big) onion
1 packet of bacon (or 2)
1 packet of full fat creamy cheese
1 can of crushed pineapple (in juice)
lots of garlic
grated cheese

1. Okies, so you slice the courgettes and spread them on the bottom of an oven dish and then you put that in the oven for a bit (30mins maybe? - so that the courgettes get soft).

2. Move on to chop the onion and the bacon and fry it all in a frying pan with garlic. You then add the creamy cheese in this mixture (and perhaps some black pepper).

3. Take the courgettes out of the oven and spread the bacon-onion-garlic-cheese-mixture on top of the courgettes. Open the can of crushed pineapple, get rid of some of the juice and spread the pineapple on top, and on top of that the grated cheese.

4. Put the oven dish back in the oven for the cheese to melt nicely on top and enjoy!



I'm not particularly good with exact measures, so increasing or reducing the amount of any ingredient is fine. The recipe was actually originally even more meaty, with sausage slices instead of courgettes, but the kind of sausages I'd use you don't really get from the UK and I think it's actually far more delicious with some veg!

thank you Iida, i'm a veggie, so might try that (but with a variation of meat )

hahaha duncan's in TROUBLEEEEE!!!!!!
fight fight hahaah!

Cauliflower cheese and bacon

1kg cauliflower
400-500g mature cheddar
600ml single cream
1 pack smoked bacon

melt the cheese in the cream slowly. Add the cauliflower and simmer until cooked. Cut the bacon as small as you can with kitchen scissors. Stir through and simmer. Done!

Simple but tastes so good.

[Duncan]

1 large onion
Half a packet of chestnut mushrooms
Half a packet of cherry tomatoes
1 pack smoket streaky bacon
7 eggs
dash full fat milk
150-200g extra mature cheddar
A big knob of butter

Chop and fry the onio in butter. Chop and add the mushrooms, half and add the tomatoes. When the vegetables look done, chop and fry the bacon.

Beat the eggs in a mixingbowl and add a dash of milk. Pour over the other ingrediants in the pan. Slowly simmer. When the egg at the edge of the pan is firm enough, use a spatula to ease it off the edge of the frying pan to allow egg from the top/middle to run underneath as you simmer. This will avoid the egg on the surface of the pan catching and turning brown/unpleasant.

When the eggs are at the point where there isn't a lot of liquid left to cycle to the bottom, put the entire pan under the grill on full heat. When it begins to brown on the top, remove and sprinkle extra mature cheddar over in a thick layer. Return to the grill until the cheese bubbles.

Remove from the heat and divide into quartres with a spatula. Put the separate portions in the fridge overnight.

This forms a quiche type dish which if cooked correctly should be moist but firm when refridgerated. Particularly good for anyone struggling to come up with stuff to take to work.

You really should start putting these together in a low carb recipe book you know!

[motokouk]

Oh baby.... Sounds like my omeletes that I make daily just with much more eggs and better technique! Going to try the the liquid cycle thing to get more of a quiche texture MMM!
