Just a few of the dishes we have cooked.

This is so simple, I've included my photo of it - lemon & lime zest, it is so fresh and light

Spread the tortilla with red pesto, sprinkle with cubed cooked chicken & rocket. Top with a mixture of mozarella & grated cheese. bake 10 minutes. A new recipe of mine - hope you enjoy!

It was shop bought, so sorry, only know from ingredient list (will try & make it though!!) Its based on tomato with pine nuts, basil. This recipe would work equally well with regular basil pesto.

I hope the photo upload worked - haven't tried this before. I asked a while ago about cooking with mayonnaise & yesterday did this with salmon: Mixed 1tsp red pesto with 1tsp mayo, spread on salmon then topped with an asparagus speat & wrapped in Serrano ham. baked 20 minutes. It was really...

Bigdog, I'm with you..we are the customer!

No it isn't, but this was my (limited) experience. Ramsays did. couldn't fasult the food & the serveice really was a credit - friendly & efficient (have done a review on my homepage). I realise Europe is different from the states & it really hurts to have to pay for something (bad service) which...

On one visit stateside, teh service was appaling so no I didn't tip & the waitress had a stand up row & no I didn't back down, However, i did eat at a Ramsay restaurant yesterday (new one in Versailles) and both the food & service were a credit to his empire!

Capopn is very popular in France. I just cook as for chicken & make sure I let it rest before serving. I always stuff 2 halved lemons in the cavity & perhaps fresh bay & garlic. I like it because the chickens here are so tiny!!

AllenOK, this sounds really fab. The sauce, is it a tomato based one & I'll try and find something similar though i can also ask friends to have a look next time they visit the PX. Many thanks!

Welcom from a fellow Brit, but not in Britain!! I too think Heston is fab & would love to eat at his restaurant!

This sounds like a great idea. I have a schools/clubs section on my website (see my profile) which is being used, certainly in the UK. I have tried and tested recipes (from my days of school teaching) and some articles/teaching notes. Hope it is helpful to you.

Thank you. These are really great ideas & I am going to file them for next time! I havn't cooked with soups before, but am really interested to hear how you do it. Also, what are the buffalo chicken breasts? & that mango chicken sounds really great. Chicken is so versatile though sometimes my...

I have a jar of Tahini sat in the fridge - bought to make hoummous. Made it & still best part of the jar sat in the fridge! Does anyone have further ideas of how to use tahini? I love the flavour but have never experimented with it. Thanks.:chef:

What lovely ideas, thank you. What is mango curry fried chicken, please Tattrat?

I'm thinking of making a tortilla pizza with the chicken breast or perhaps stuffing with Boursin garlic cheese & wrapping in Serrano ham. Any better ideas would be gladly appreciated. I always buy a tray then spend the next few days of trying to come up with more imaginative ways of serving it!

No sales or any other tax...in France its all included, including prices in restaurants...no extra service charges or tipping unless you really want to!

something with chicken breast. I have 30 minutes to be inspired then have to collect the kids from school!

I'm a Brit & Sharwoods is our brand leader - I wouldn't think of buying anything else- Its even imported into France for us expats!

egg & cress...I adore them!!

Just finished simmering a rich tomato ragu sauce for Spag Bog...an easy Monday evening standby. The kids have the first servings then spice it up a bit for the adults.

I'm shocked. Here in Paris I pay about Euro1 per kilo!!
