Calling all foodies..

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

ok folks, I'm looking for fellow foodies... Who loves cooking and sitting down to share a meal with family and friends? It's one of our favourite things to do, especially if they're fab friends and we can work off the calories afterwards. For me, I cook the best boeuf bourguignon you'll ever taste, and hunter does the most amazing soups. I'm also lucky enough to have been cooked some amazing veggie food and some mouthwatering cakes.... So - favourite food, favourite cakes, starters, mains- let's hear them all.

Oh yum. I love Chinese food, but I'm not a huge fan of stir fry's since hunter tried to feed me Brussels sprouts in one once.

Mmm lemon meringue pie would be a favourite of mine. I don't really like fruity desserts, but either citrusy or chocolate based puddings always go down a treat.

Last come dine with me was on halloween night a few years ago. I made pumpkin soup and served it from inside the pumpkin, looked cool

with a variety of fresh baked bread rolls and flavoured butters.

Main course was beef Wellington, my speciality as I add a few twists. Served with roast veg roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and red wine reduction or gravy.

Dessert was a medley of treats. Chocolate fondant (this was the bain of my life always getting a gooey centre until I found a sure fire trick!

now it never fails!) White chocolate and mint moose, chocolate covered strawberries and whipped and ice cream. Finished with a cheese board and Irish coffee! And the customers Halloween fireworks. I think the hooka came out too!

Cost a bloody fortune! Lol but would love to do it with fab friends! Different kind of fireworks!!

It was a lot easier when we lived in Dublin, in fact we had a really good restaurant about 5 mins from us, and as it was so expensive compared to other takeaways, we used to eat in instead.

If any of you Indian food lovers are in Manchester go out to Rusholme or Southall in London for an experience.

Sounds like a plan to me

mmmmmm a Fab come dine with me would me so much more fun than one with vanilla friends! Although they've been known to end messy too lol

Last come dine with me was on halloween night a few years ago. I made pumpkin soup and served it from inside the pumpkin, looked cool

with a variety of fresh baked bread rolls and flavoured butters.

Main course was beef Wellington, my speciality as I add a few twists. Served with roast veg roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and red wine reduction or gravy.

Dessert was a medley of treats. Chocolate fondant (this was the bain of my life always getting a gooey centre until I found a sure fire trick!

Cost a bloody fortune! Lol but would love to do it with fab friends! Different kind of fireworks!!

Hunter, c'mon we're going to Milli's for dinner

pick me up on route

Dublin West

I bake every weekend..

Have been doing it for almost 40 years now and spent some time as a pastry chef in a Dublin hotel when i was in uni to help to feed myself.

Love making fresh pasta as its so easy and the girls seem to be very impressed when i do it and there is nothing like the smell of freshly cooked bread in the house.

And fresh pizza from my diy stone oven in the back garden is a big hit with the neighbours. Amazing what a little knowledge, some flour, yeast, salt,oil and water can do to put a smile on a persons face...

Salt n chilli anything, for chinese dishes, satay, blackbean. I've dabbled with most seafood dishes squid, shark, monkfish etc especially shellfish.... the list is endless, now I'm starving haha

A nice long slowed cooked meal for 8 to 10hrs leaves a lot of time to do other things.....

Followed by melted mars bars in rum topped off with ice cream.

At leat you've had time to do the other things first, cause you won't be able to after a large dose of mars bars n rum. yummy.
