Well I like to cook, generally. Like most women now We are very busy. Yet I really do love to get into the galley and make tasty feast for my family and friends. I take great delight in being the talk of the town “If you get invited to Alice’s Place for dinner, don’t say no, she is an awesome cook”. That is among the many opinions that have been extended about my cooking prowess. It makes me very very pleased. I’ve some most-liked cook books and I love to mess with all the recipes . I often go back to the book I obtained a recipe from years later and find that what I am making is very diverse as opposed to original recipe. I believe that it is the mark of a very good cook when you can change a recipe to make it work better or make something up on the fly.
To be honest we are all very busy and occasionally we just need to have something easy and quick to cook. Well there is no way I’d get away with baked beans on toast for dinner in this house, butI actually do possess a few tricks up my sleeve for when I am simply to tired lack time or could not be bothered.
Phoning for a Pizza is unthinkable, unless it is a code red disaster (which happens from time to time). And so i am left with, what can i do that is really quick? Nowadays we are spoilt for choice with a number of the packet mixes and jars that are around, and so some of them are really good (some aren’t). I have to say that a recently discovered favourite of mine is the Continental apricot chicken curry. Now usually I would have to add some of my own twist to a packet mix, but that one delivers purely following the directions. A very long time favourite may be the quick cook meatballs from Woolworths using a jar of my very favourite Paul Newman’s own pasta sauce and a can of diced tomatoes. If I want a curry in a hurry I really do have to make a little bit of a sacrifice on taste but Passage of India Curry Sauces are worth trying. Now truly, none of this is as good as cooking from scratch, however it works if you are pushed for time and will mean that you can get something way better than a frozen TV dinner on the table.
