[Garlic Breath]

I made this for tea last night. Its not too involved and upon first glance the combination of Allspice,Oregano and Thyme does seem to be a little weird but trust me its not.
Allspice is of course also known as Jamaican Allspice as it invokes the real true taste of The Caribbean.


To feed 4 people so simply half for 2:rolleyes:
Ingredients are as follows: 1 small onion
2 cloves of garlic
100 grams long grain rice(Basmati is fine)
Vegetable oil
1 yellow 0r red pepper
1 tsp each of Oregano,Thyme and Allspice
small bunch spring onions
225 tin of chopped tomatoes
375ml vegetable stock
400 can of beans(whatever you prefer...I used Pinto)
fresh Coriander or flat leaf Parsley to garnish

Peel and chop the onion and garlic and cook lightly in the oil for 5 mins or until soft.
Next add the pepper,Oregano,thyme and Allspice and cook for 5 mins more.
Then add the rice and stir to coat fully and cook for another 3 mins. Then add the spring onions and tomatoes and the stock and bring to the boil. Cover,reduce the heat to low and simmer for 8 mins. Drain and rinse the beans then add and stir into the rice mixture.Cover and simmer for 8 mins more till the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
Chop the Coriander (or Parsley) and add to the finished dish to garnish. If you like this kind of thing a little hotter you can simply add a few drops of Tabasco sauce or pepper sauce.

1) Cycle to any local butchers and buy a tub of mucky dripping, followed by visiting a nearby bakery and purchasing a freshly baked bloomer.

2) Get back on your penny farthing and ride as fast as you can home before it turns dusk.

3) Unwrap tub of dripping and apply liberally to fresh bloomer making sure that you include the brown jelly stuff at the bottom.

4) Open mouth and divulge.


Ahhhhhhhhh Bisto!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jantje]

Great recipe young Gareth,

may i add that a generous lashing of salt and Black pepper on said dripping bloomer will enhance its delectability

[Rambo]

I shall try said additional condiments JS

[Mallorcabantam]

Ahhhhhhh -- the good things in life

Home made dripping from the meat dish as only mother made

And definitively plenty of salt!

[Parrot]

Dont forget the spicy brown hp sauce on that dripping bloomer tup:

Yorkshire Pud

Ingredients
vegetable oil
290ml/½ pint milk
4 eggs, beaten
255g/9oz plain flour, sifted
salt and freshly ground black pepper



Method
1. Preheat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7.
2. Grease a Yorkshire pudding tin with a little vegetable oil. Place the tin in the oven to preheat.
3. Place the milk, eggs and seasoning in a bowl. Stir well to combine.
4. Whisk in the flour.
5. Remove the tin from the oven. Pour in the batter, filling each case only three quarters full.

And the proof is in the pudding -- I've just taken this from the oven -- nice!!

The secret to massive Yorkshire puddings everytime is to have all 3 ingredients in EXACTLY the same volume....

Only way to do this is to add the eggs to a measuring jug - for example if 3 eggs comes up to 200ml - you then pour the eggs in a bowl, measure out the same volume of milk - 200ml and pour in the bowl, then dry out the measuring jug and add the flour again to 200ml - then add to the bowl, mix and add salt and pepper!!
Olive oil in the tin works fine - you don't need to worry about the oil having to smoke or anything daft like that with this recipe!!

I GUARANTEE that if you follow that golden rule you'll always have perfect Yorkies!!

[Zonnebloem]

I'll give you a tip tup:

Measure the flower to 200ml first then you dont have to wash the messy jug out! ;)

Anyway, anyone got any knitting patterns they want to swap? :)

That wouldnt work as the eggs are the odd sized item - no guarantee that they'd be 200ml.

The obvious thing would be to put jug 1 in the dishwasher and use jug 2 for the flower!!:chick:

Thats what KB means -- if the eggs measure 250ml - then thats the mark for the other ingredients

Still -- whatever -- if its done by a Yorkshire man --
A Yorkshire Pudding will be fine every time :wet:

[mrsjdtobe]

What variety of flower do we use then? :D

[Mallorcabantam]

Oi!!!! -- this is a serious thread Missus -- well, I use plain :)

I like Crispy sides and a soggy bottom, all soaked in gravy

[Parrot]

I presumed he knew 3 eggs made 200ml from previous experience??? ;)

Oh well, back to my knitting!

[beerbantam]

What variety of flower do we use then? :D

Good spot!

A massive flaw in the recipe, there will be young kids following that using Wholemeal Bread Flour and wondering why their Yorkies taste like shite!!:eek:

[Parrot]

Self-raising? :)

[mrsjdtobe]

Thanks for pointing it out, Jonny nearly ended up with dandelion puddings for tea!!! :D

[panther]

roflmao: this is the best thread for a while...

Yorkshire puddings - I agree with KB on this recipe... although I also use Gordon Ramsays receipe - which also never fails... tup:
