Quinoa Bread Topped With Pumpkin Seeds

Jun 25, 2021Jun 26, 2021 ~ Tandy ~ 11 Comments

According to Ella, this is one of her favourite recipes in Quick & Easy. I must say that at first I thought the recipe for the quinoa bread had failed as I had to bake it for way longer than stated. But I left it overnight, and the next day we had a great loaf … Continue reading Quinoa Bread Topped With Pumpkin Seeds

Gorgonzola Ice Cream

May 11, 2015Mar 28, 2022 ~ Tandy ~ 45 Comments

Shortly before I moved to Gordons Bay I heard a pop when I closed the boot of my car. Thinking it was the tendon in my neck snapping, I thought nothing of it. But, 6 months after my move I could barely lift my right arm to brush my teeth. I went to see an … Continue reading Gorgonzola Ice Cream

Recipe For Tsoureki Easter Bread

Apr 28, 2014Aug 6, 2019 ~ Tandy ~ 26 Comments

Our Easter weekend was really wonderful, and I hope that yours was as well. I did quite a bit of laundry and only a little bit of recipe testing for the blog. I left the making of my Tsoureki Cypriot Easter Bread until Easter Monday. I trusted that the recipe from Paul Hollywood would work … Continue reading Recipe For Tsoureki Easter Bread

Recipe For Crostata Di Pera

Oct 14, 2013Aug 6, 2019 ~ Tandy ~ 31 Comments

This month we could choose any challenge to do and I chose Life of Pie from this year June. The blog checking line from this challenge is: Rachael from pizzarossa was our lovely June 2013 Daring Bakers’ host and she had us whipping up delicious pies in our kitchens! Cream pies, fruit pies, chocolate pies, even crack pies! There’s nothing … Continue reading Recipe For Crostata Di Pera

Recipe For Chocolate Bavarois

Aug 6, 2013Aug 6, 2019 ~ Tandy ~ 14 Comments

Tom Kitchin, the one star Michelin Chef from Scotland, was my inspiration for this dish for round 5 of the Freshly Blogged competition. Dave and I met Tom last year when we went to eat at The Kitchin, and I have a signed copy of his recipe book. Tom believes in cooking regional and seasonal … Continue reading Recipe For Chocolate Bavarois

Recipe For Saffron Buns

Aug 6, 2012Jun 25, 2019 ~ Tandy ~ 36 Comments

This month, Sally has set the challenge for saffron buns for Fresh From The Oven. I do these challenges for myself, as it takes me out of my comfort zone of the usual bread I bake. On Saturday when I made the buns it was cold. Our weekends have not been particularly warm for what … Continue reading Recipe For Saffron Buns

Cranberry and Raisin Muffins

Apr 25, 2012Jun 24, 2019 ~ Tandy ~ 29 Comments

For those of you who are regular readers of my blog you will notice that I always replace sugar with fructose in my recipes. I am sucrose intolerant which means my body cannot digest sucrose. I have been asked on a few occasions recently about this and I hope this post helps. I am not going … Continue reading Cranberry and Raisin Muffins

Recipe For Integer Cake

Feb 18, 2011Jun 24, 2019 ~ Tandy ~ Leave a comment

The challenge this week was to bake something using a sweet dessert wine. I have a recipe for a noble late harvest cake from Trinity Guest Lodge where I did a weekend cookery course with my mom. The recipe is not complete and so I guessed the temperature the cake had to be cooked at. … Continue reading Recipe For Integer Cake

Nov 1, 2010Dec 30, 2020 ~ Tandy ~ 12 Comments

After having perfected the art of ice cream here and a competition being set here I knew exactly what I wanted to do for my next ice cream flavour. I am a chocoholic and my favourite ice cream is triple chocolate ice cream - chocolate flavour, with chocolate chips, and a chocolate sauce running through … Continue reading Recipe For Triple Chocolate Ice Cream

Recipe For Buttered Mashed Potatoes

Oct 13, 2010Dec 22, 2019 ~ Tandy ~ 24 Comments

I can eat potatoes any which way at any time of the day. I recently bought a new ricer from Yuppiechef. It was expensive but worth the outlay. There are tips worth mentioning when talking about mashing potatoes. In South Africa we currently have a very limited variety of potatoes. I believe that this is … Continue reading Recipe For Buttered Mashed Potatoes

Recipe For Apple And Spice Bread

Sep 18, 2010Jun 25, 2019 ~ Tandy ~ 3 Comments

The first thing I baked for the Something Sweet challenge was a loaf of apple and spice bread. Well, the bread maker baked it so I cannot take any credit. Unfortunately the apples and sour cherries did not get dispensed but the bread is lovely as it is with some cheese. This recipe called for … Continue reading Recipe For Apple And Spice Bread

Recipe For Bacon And Cheese Bread

Sep 9, 2010Jun 25, 2019 ~ Tandy ~ 7 Comments

I have been asked for a recipe for bacon and cheese bread for the bread maker. When using a bread maker it is important to add the ingredients as they are listed. This recipe is for a 750g loaf. I tend to use my bread maker more often in the winter than in the summer. It … Continue reading Recipe For Bacon And Cheese Bread

My challenge for the week  is to bake a Malva Pudding and it was inspired by my friend Linden. She lives in the UK and wanted to do a South African meal for her guests. She made babotie and her pudding was described as "having too much of everything in it!" Here is the recipe … Continue reading Guest Blogger: Linden Quinlan’s Malva Pudding

May 28, 2010Jun 25, 2019 ~ Tandy ~ Leave a comment

My own recipe for a savoury Soufflé was one I made up and it worked the first time I made it. Then I went on a cooking course at Trinity Lodge and I was given the following recipe for Blue Brie Savoury Soufflé from Delia Smith which I adapted. Once Baked and Twice Baked Savoury Soufflé 250 … Continue reading Recipe For Blue Brie Savoury Soufflé
