Debbified Bangers & Mash

Mashed Potato

Wholegrain Mustard

Sausages

Red Onion

Gravey

Worcestshire Sauce

Just your usual bangers & mash but I add a big ol' dollop of wholegrain mustard to the mash and its yummm (if you like mustard that is!).....bangers cooked with plenty of red onions and then add the gravey to the pan....to spice it up a little add a couple of dollops (good word) of worcestshire sauce. Nice n simple - like me!

Outlaw Cauliflower Cheese

Grated cheese

1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon of mustard/powder

Butter

plain flour

milk

cooked cauliflower

fresh breadcrumbs

cheese to top

Named after my mother-in-law who taught me how to make the best cauliflower cheese. I have always referred to my "in-laws" as outlaws and it is a term of affection. This is no different to any other cauliflower cheese really except the addition of mustard and nutmeg.....I sometimes add crispy pancetta pieces too......go with the flow. Melt the butter in the pan add the mustard or mustard powder and nutmeg. Add in the flour and milk and continue to make a white sauce. Slowly melt in the cheese until smooth. Add the cauliflower to an oven-proof dish, poor over the sauce and cover with breadcrumbs, top this with cheese of your choice and cook.

Shipping is a terrible thing to do to vegetables. They probably get jet-lagged, just like people.

Chili Pork & Beef Meatballs in Tomato Sauce

6 chili sausages

small pack of beef mince

1 egg

freshly grated breadcrumbs

Passata or tomato based pasta sauce

Olive Oil

Gotta get your hands messy for this one. Remove the skins from the sausages (I use Tesco's finest but any spicey sausages will do) and cut up into small pieces. Add the mince to the bowl (you did put the sausages into a bowl right - I don't have to tell you everything LOL) and start mixing the sausages and mince (first post had mice - I am not THAT cruel) together, get stuck in and squeeze........add the egg (icky bit) and mix together some more. Add the freshly grated breadcrumbs, yesterday's bread works best and mix well until combined. Pull off small pieces and roll into a ball, next roll through some seasoned flour. Cook to colour in a frying pan with olive oil and add to a oven proof dish with a lid. Cover with your passata or pasta sauce and slow cook in the oven. Serve with pasta or rice.

Red meat is not bad for you. Now blue-green meat, that’s bad for you!

Chicken, Pancetta & Parmesan Pan Pasta

Chicken, diced

pancetta, cubed

broccoli

garlic

120g (roughly) freshly grated parmesan

Pasta (Penne or twists works well)

Olive oil

Heat the olive oil in a frying pan, add finely chopped garlic and pancetta (I like my pancetta to be really crispy but alter to taste). Add chicken and fry gently until cooked. Meanwhile heat a pan of salted water and parboil the broccoli...I use the same water to cook the pasta (green & resourceful lol) add the broccoli to the frying pan until the pasta is cooked and drained. Add all ingrediants to the large pan and stir in the parmesan cheese slowly until it goes all stringy...serve immediately with salad and garlic bread.

Takes around 15mins total.

Welcome

These are NOT recipes as such, I don't give quantities etc, they are guides to meals that I manage to conjur up from friends, family and books.......they have all been "Debbiefied" ;)

Try them......alter them but they are here because a few people have commented in a forum I belong to....I don't claim to be a masterchef or anything.

Thats it.......enjoy!
