| 104 | Nanna Kennedy's Ginger crunch 1 heaped cup cornflakes, 1 heaped cup flour, 3/4 cup sugar, 1 cup coconut, 1 tsp baking powder, 1.5 tsp ground ginger, about 6 Tbsp melted butter. Put dry ingreds into basin. Add melted butter (more if too dry). Bake in a slice tin 12-15 minutes. ice while hot with.....6Tbsp icing sugar, 4 Tbsp butter, 1 tsp ground ginger, 2 tsp golden syrup. Beat then pour over slice. a_kiwi_grl - 2004-05-05 19:23:00 |
| 105 | Mars Bar Marshmallow slice 3 cups rice bubbles, 40g butter, 3 mars bars (chopped up), 180g pkt marshmallows, 1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter. Put butter, peanut butter & marshmallows into a saucepan & melt over low heat (keep stirring so it doesn't stick to pot). Pour in the rice bubbles & mix well. Pour into greased slice tin, spread and then allow to cool before cutting into squares. This is soooo good it will be gone as soon as you've made it! a_kiwi_grl - 2004-05-05 19:29:00 |
| 106 | Jamie Olivers Chocolate Fridge cake 150g butter (melted), 200g good cooking chocolate, 1 Tbsp golden syrup, 150g crushed digestive biscuits (or sweet wheaten biscuits), 2 handfuls each of crushed pistachio nuts & walnuts, some finely chopped glacé cherries and dried apricots, cocoa to sift on top. Place a glass/pyrex bowl over a small pot of simmering water. Place broken up chocolate in bowl & melt. Meanwhile, in a bowl cruch up biscuits, add nuts, fruit etc. Pour melted chocolate over biscuit mix & combine well. Put into a loaf tin lined with gladwrap. Pack mixture down tight & refrigerate for about 1 hour. Before serving sift cocoa over top. ...this is fab with a coffee after dinner. It is very rich & decadent. I suggest a bittersweet dark chocolate if possible. a_kiwi_grl - 2004-05-05 19:37:00 |

| 120 | Hi Kelly from Welly :) I menu plan (usually) find it works really well, especially since I don't have to go back to the shops and so don't end up buying all those things that I don't really need :) Home baking always seems to be more filling (as well as tasting nicer) and I usually bake with what is in season or on sale etc....... give me a yell sometime :) Andie andie4 - 2004-05-09 22:29:00 |
| 121 | I have done menu planning but find now that i have a standard grocery list and pretty much buy the same stuff each week, i know i need to be 7 meat meals in advance and i know that i need fruit, chippies,yoghurts for 3 people over the 7 days and also stuff for us...so what i would advise id to sit down and type up and laminate your shopping list and each week just tick the things you ned and dont stray from it that way if you have to buy everything you know exactly how much the full list is...some weeks you will get away with not buying as much and you will have some pocket change...........alot of people i know wait for the weekluy specials and then plan their meals on whats on special but i find it easier to have the basics on hans at all times and then you can vertially make anythjing with abit of creativity kob - 2004-05-10 06:35:00 |
| 122 | very traditional this week banana cake and afghans from the edmonds cookbook! zellas - 2004-05-10 09:00:00 |
| 123 | elly 1972 I think it is cheaper to bake , as someone else said it is more filling so you don't eat as much at once , i buy all my stuff in bulk-5kg flour / sugar, 4kg marg,+ a couple of packets of butter for the things that really need butter,i buy alot of stuff from the bin inn or bulk bins at the super market, and when things are on special like choc chips i buy a few packets at once to store away. Some one else asked about meal planning too - i am like kob i usually have a set groceries list - 20 loaves bread and 10 2 L milk a week, plus the meat for 5 nights a week,that includes one night chicken and one night fish, 2 nights a week we have either left overs /soup/eggs/spag on toast - anything easy,or a big salad.Having 7 at home to feed (5 with adult tummys!) i have to spread things out a bit- so try to make meat go further by adding loads of veges/pasta/rice. cont bams1 - 2004-05-10 11:17:00 |
| 124 | cont i try to grow all our veges so that saves too, i also like to make puddings a few nights a week , so that the boys are REALLY full and then they are'nt hungry an hour after dinner as boys tend to do ( so much cheaper to have teenage girls who are always on a diet !!But 5 boys sure can chew thru the groceries)I try to be creative too although the meat is usually the same each week i try to do something different with it.We live rural too so if i forget something i can't just pop into town to pick it up - unless its a training night and are there anyway, so i try very hard to get all groceries at once. bams1 - 2004-05-10 11:23:00 |
| 125 | good on ya bams we do think alike............i too love being creative and love looking through old recipe books , i was lucky enough to inherit my grandmas recipe books which i absolutely cherish and make heaps of things out of them still........i only have 4 adults to feed(a 14& 16 year old)the kids eat more than us but if i am abit short on the supply list it can cost $160 to fill up for the week, i also try and make pudds so that they are full otherwise an hour later they will eat 6 weetbix or between the two of them they will eat a loaf of bread and a 1/2 jar of jam if i dont suppervise, they arent great vege eaters but i do persevaer.............i too stock up on specials and if im in the city shop at pac n save or export meat etc they sure do save and i just cut some thing else out that isnt a necessesaty(cant spell) it is encouraging to find other mums that are like me keep it up kob - 2004-05-10 16:28:00 |
| 126 | tonite im going to bake... sour cream banana cake with cream cheese style topping. the recipe is courtesy of http://www.ecook.co.nz/recipes/711.html - ive made this one before so its a real winner. making it for mummy since i didnt have any time yesterday to make her one for mothers day. tweek - 2004-05-10 16:33:00 |
| 127 | yep kob i don't know where they put it i seem to be forever getting a loaf of bread out of the freezer , no sooner does it thaw and its gone again!!Weetbix are a fav here too, good stuff for growing kids.I am lucky that all mine enjoy veges , they have had no choice they either eat them or go hungry - not one of them has a real dislike to anything which i am very thank full for right down to miss 4, actually they all like really strange foods that most kids won't eat like olives, i have to hide them in the fridge just so i get some! bams1 - 2004-05-10 21:02:00 |
| 128 | ok wrote my own thread but no one seems ta be listenin lol so thought i would try in here, i lost my choc cake recipe, it goes something like this, butter, golden syrup melted in microwave, milk ,eggs, vanilla, baking soda mixed together, add flour,b.p, sugar cocoa mix all together cook in oven, those are the ingriedents that im sure of, can anyone PLEASE tell me the quantities. thanks heaps lisa_marie40 - 2004-05-10 21:56:00 |

| 131 | It's payback time... OK BAMS1 and KOB, I have copied all of your recipies and me and my 2 1/2 year old are going to have a cooking day today. I thought I would try and return the favour although I only have 2 recipies worth posting up here (most of what I cook is straight out of Edmonds) and they are both easy and delicious cakes! I hope you like them! raveltd - 2004-05-11 09:03:00 |

| 133 | Orange Cake 1 whole orange (with peel), 200g butter, 3 eggs, 1 1/2 cups SR flour. Process whole orange until well pulped. Cream butter, sugar and add orange. Mix in dry ingred. Bake at 180 for 45-55 mins. Icing: 2/3 cup icing sugar, 2 tbs melted butter, grated rind 1 orange, juice or 1 orange. Really moist and lovely and keeps really well. raveltd - 2004-05-11 09:22:00 |
| 134 | Orange Cake (again) Raveltd, this sounds yum, and I'd like to try it. You say "cream butter, sugar . . ." yet you didn't mention sugar in the ingredients. How much sugar should it be? koolkatkiwi - 2004-05-11 15:10:00 |

| 139 | homebaking In response to Lemsip about the ingredients of home baking. I think it is important to respect different views. However, there is something about the smell,taste and love that comes from homebaking.I hold (at 30!)fond memories of bonding with my kids while baking and hope as they grow up they will to. I will always remember the excitment of coming home to mums pink marshmellow shortcake covered in coconut! Personallly I think the key is all things in moderation. As we currently live in inland China with no oven and very limited ingreds I have really missed the benefits of homebaking. Enjoy the luxury of homebaking available to you!! elvis9 - 2004-05-15 12:36:00 |
