if u take egg whites, and whisk em up, they become like white and fluffy yet sorta stiff... like a cross between styling mousse and bubble bath foam. (if ur too pov to own a whisk, it actually works with a fork! but it takes longer and builds up ur arm muscles lol).
the white catches lotsa air in bubbles, and you don't want to pop them, so when u mix it with the batter, u kinda fold the two into each other, like mixing gently.
(haha... i am so on the way to becoming ultimate houswife...)

Gosh, that takes me back to the old Primary School After School Care, where we took icing sugar, added colour, then put it on arrowroot biscuits and added lollies like smarties, jelly beans, gummi bares, freckles, 100s&1000s etc, on the biscuits, and then it'd set in the icing sugar - YUUUUUUUUUUUMMM

How does everyone like their banana smoothies, in all their variations?

I like with:

Milk,

Does anyone have good recipes for crepes?

I love crepes.

Thanks

 

[OZGIRL86]

cheese and ham filling in crepes is nice

 

[Loz#1]

I had that the other day. That put heaps on ham in so I wasn't impressed, but it was still good.

I prefer svaoury crepes over sweet crepes, although the orange ones are nice

here's a basic recipe

INGREDIENTS
500 g (3 cups) of flour
4 eggs
1 liter (4 cups) of milk
2 tablespoons oil
pinch of salt
2 tablespoons rum
A little butter

To make the batter:
Put the flour in a mixing bowl. Make a well in the flour and break the eggs into it. Add the salt, the oil and a little of the milk. Using a whisk, or in a food processor, beat the mixture well. When the batter is smooth, keep beating and add the rest of the milk little by little. Add the rum at the end. (The batter can also be flavored with orange blossom essence or Grand-Marnier, for example).

To make the crêpes:
Melt a small piece of butter in a hot skillet. Using a ladle, pour a small amount of batter on the pan while swirling it to distribute the batter evenly and make a thin crêpe. Let it cook until golden brown (it will take only a few seconds), then turn the crêpe and cook the other side the same way.

I guess its up to everyone to fill in their own fillings

i made biscuits for the first time the other day, they were peanut ones and really nice and tasty

 

[Alaranth]

Ok, I got a few. All really simple, otherwise I wouldn't remember them!

Nachos

1 can refried beans
1 can other beans (red kidney, three bean mix, ect)
1 tub salsa
1-2 pks corn chips
grated cheese

*Mush the refried beans and salsa together
*Rinse the ther beans and stir in.
*Place a layer of cornchips in a tray (it's a good idea to line it with paper or foil or something)
*Put sme bean mix on top
*Sprinkle with cheese
*Keep layering it utill you use all the stuff
*Cook it in the oven at around 200 for 20 minutes or so. Yum!


Lemon Meringue Pie[u/]

1 pie crust
3/4 cup sweetend condenced milk
2 egg yolks
1/2 cup lemon juice
3 egg whites
2/3 cup white sugar

*Stir the milk, egg yolks and juice together.
*Beat the egg whites to stiff peaks (use an electric beater. Stiff peaks means you can turn to bowl upside down without anything falling out. People are very supesticious about egg whites, and you should use a ceramic bowl (no plastic) that has been in the freezer for 10 min, and if you get ANYTHING in the whites (yolk, water, grit, etc) they won't work.)
*Beat in sugar one spoonful at a time.
*Pour milk mix into crust.
*Spoon egg whites over filling.
*Cook at 200 for 10 min, untill the top is golden.

I LOVE to cook! Total stress relief! I love fidly things to. It's the only thing I have patience for.
