^ Thanks for that, theres a few easy ones to follow. I'm a bit of a lazy veggie, and always wind up eating plain bowls of veg / salad. I needed a few ideas, I'll be trying out a few of them I think! Cauliflower cheeze and the chinese wraps for starters, and the beany hotpot looks good

for the sauce, melt the marge in a pot then mix the flour in. add the milk, yeast flakes and the nutmeg (some prefer more than 2 teapsoon), bring to the boil and simmer until the sauce has thinkened up. Pour over the dish and throw it in the oven and bake for about 30 - 45 minutes until the potatoes are soft and the top is nicely browned.

side dish.

goes really well with garlic spinach. 1 bag of baby spinach, chop 3 cloves of garlic finely, bit of salt. throw in all into a steamer for 5 minutes. and done!

Ok Ok. I know there are other ingredients than potatoes and spinach but goddamn em i love em!

ok decided to get adventurous and try gnocchi. i had never made dough before and just bought myself a blender after years of a massive phobia of appliance shopping. it turned out so well im having it again tonight.

Ingredients.

3 potatoes
2 cups flour (i used spelt but i dont think it matters
olive oil
3 cloves of garlic
1 cup of basil (1 packet of fresh basil worked)
1 bag of spinach
2 portobello mushrooms (optional)

prep and cooking time: 20 minutes

serves: 2

gnocchi
boil the potatoes until theyre ready to mash, drain them and let them cool down a bit. some like to run cold water over them but i let the steam get rid of excess water so the dough wouldnt be too stciky. add in flour bit by bit and nead in a large bowl until you get a nice dough thats not too sticky. roll out the dough into a snake thats about a centimetre and a half in diametre. cut into sections about an inch and a half long and fold them over onto themselves. put aside for later.

sauce
steam the spinach until cooked properly. mix chopped garlic, basil, 3 tablespoons oil and the spinach with a little salt and pepper in a blender for a few seconds until its still a little leafy but not a soup.

fry the mushrooms in a saucepan if youve decided to use them. boil a pan of water and drop the gnocchi in. they should sink to the bottom first and when theyve floated to the top, theyre cooked. should take about 1-2 minutes.

throw it all in with the mushrooms and stir for a bit. then youre done!

goes really well with leftover beer and 'hobo with a shotgun' dvd

Just in the process of making these but I cant get them to stick as patties I mashed half the mixture and made 2 burgers that way. They taste lovely but really didnt stay as burgers. I used some sweet chilli sauce with them.

I didnt mash it totally,just to make the chickpeas more crumbly.


They are lovely..dont get me wrong but I dont want to start adding stuff cos Im afraid it will loose the taste. The chilli sauce is lovely with them.
Thumbs up for a nice fast tasty dish
