Recipes - a dedicated thread, maybe?

Thank you Marydoll!

Thank you Natasha. I have just published my famous Mars Bar cake recipe.

Thank you for looking at this!
Just off to explore.

Do you mean this, Natasha?

www.gransnet.com/recipes

On The mobile site there is no "food index" under the link you give.

Can we have that update now please, if you've had a chance to have a look Natashagransnet , as you said you'd get back to us on Monday just gone. Thank you. ?

First toilet rolls, now sage

Is this why I didnt get sage on my Sainsbury's order this week?

I'd forgotten how good is the combination of pork, sage & onion

I was going to make something similar at the weekend but the sage had not grown at all and I'd run out of dried sage so had to use rosemary and thyme instead. It was good but sage would have been better.

Yesterday I finally got round to making Urmston's SOAP recipe!

I expect this is not quite how it's supposed to look but I did use red onions as that's all I had. Plus the topping is mashed cauliflower, in keeping with my low-carb diet.

It's still there, kittylester but it's a sub-heading of More.

Yes please - more recipes!

I thought Food was there too, calkistemon and I used to enjoy scanning through it. I've got an idea we had something like Recipe of the day or week, didn't we.

I'm sure Food used to be a main heading along the top but perhaps Coronavirus and Menopause have knocked it off the top spot?

Is anyone interested in Style and Beauty at the moment or are we all wandering around without makeup, with haystack hair (DH's description of mine) and wearing comfy trousers and sweaters?

Thank you for your time and efforts, Natasha.
Results eagerly awaited!

Thank you Natasha

I also struggle to find the recipe section. My favourite is for Apple Cake from Baggs ( there are others from different members). When the GCs go off back to University each term (not recently!), I always send a supply of tray bakes for them to share with their housemates.

I just found it on the desktop site by clicking on 'more' then 'food' and 'find a recipe'.

Apologies - I was looking under R for Recipes in the 'Forums' section.
I will now explore the 'More' red header (but also write down those I fancy as soon as I read them on a thread!)

Here’s Urms’ original (hope she doesn’t mind)

Cut up 3 pork steaks, put in flat oven proof dish.
Chop an onion and a baking apple and put on top.
Sprinkle heaped teaspoon of sage (dried) over and half teaspoon salt.
Pour 3 tablespoons water on top, cover with foil and bake one and a quarter hours, fan 180°C.

Remove from oven and top with buttery or cheesy mash (or parsnip/ swede thrown in)
Bake again for 25 minutes (with or without foil) when ready to eat.

Easy peasy and really delicious. We like it with spring greens.

I was going to do the Hairy Bikers' pork recipe this weekend, it sounds very similar to the S.O.A.P. one.

Fannycornforth SOAP stands for Sage, Onion and Apple Pork. It gets frequent mentions on the wonderful Good Morning thread and is v. delicious. And v. simple for thos fed up with cooking.

Good plan. Urmston should bring out a book.

In fact, I will report my post as I think GHNHQ could make the food/recipe section simpler to find.

I hope this works:

If you put them in this section, others can find them.
However, it's not at all clear as, to find it, you have to click on More on the top bar (just under the Gransnet logo) then carefully slide your cursor or finger along to Food on the lefthand side underneath.

But, we have a recipe section? Wouldn't it be better to put things there? Not soap obvs!!
