Thanks Selkie, that's fantastic! I'm now educated and vindicated in my surprise :tongue:

See, I knew the dressing had anchovies but these were full-fish-layered-on-my-chicken-breast anchovies, gave me quite a scare lifting a lettuce leaf to see them staring at me! Haha, I knew the little critters weren't meant to be in there!! I shall go gloat Thank you xx

I might be putting this on the wrong board (sorry if so) but I went to a restaurant recently and ordered ceasar salad. It would have been nice - apart from the anchovies! Now it might just be me, but since when did ceasar salad have anchovies in it?! My friend mercilessly mocked me saying that...

I don't know much about American food but when I think of it it's usually: Ben and Jerry's Pumpkin Pie Blueberry Waffles & Pancakes with Maple Syrup and bacon Ooh and when I was in NY I had the most amazing sweet cheese filled pretzel :tongue: So good.

Hello! Welcome to DC - have fun :flowers:

Relatives, the internet (such as the BBC website) and some scrummy cookbooks!!

Helloooo! :flowers: Welcome to DC!!

My father spent 6 years of his childhood in SA and this was one of the first recipes he ever taught me. I'm glad to see it here, it always makes me smile. And it's tasty too - I use loads of different curries (not just the traditional veg curry) depending on the people I'm catering for. Thanks...

OMG this sounds amazing!! Save some for me Snip! ;) The other great one is sweet potato, pumpkin and apricot curry (with spinach & steamed rice) ... Looks like it'll be curry for my house tonight now too!

I always used to cook my rice on a stove but recently found that you can cook a really amazing steamed rice in the microwave. Glass bowl, add rice (having washed it a few times until the waters pretty much clear), add double rice of boiling water and pop in the micro wave for 10mins. Voila...

Gooseberry is a current favourite. They always change the stock in our local farm store and at the moment this one is plentiful and so tasty!

I watched an Indiana Jones marathon this weekend. Good times indeed! But we went in reverse order so technically the last film I watched was Raiders of the Lost Arc :D
