Oh I love melted cheese so much, this sounds amazing. I also like a cheese nd baked bean toastie, I imagine they're similar.

I like the open toastie more for some reason, maybe it is the cheese that goes hard around the edges I think., It becomes a fine dining experience with the fork and knife use haha

I'd really like this recipe! I myself don't mind it, but my sister in law loves it and it is her birthday in a few weeks, so would love to bake one for her
 
I was wondering if it meant my favourite recipe to cook, or to eat. I opted for a hybrid. It's a cake. The ONLY cake I can actually cook well..lol and it's easy and yummy. (I am not a person who eats cake)

Orange Poppy Seed Cake.

Ingredients:

  • 1 LARGE orange roughly chopped if small, 2-3.
  • 185 gms butter melted -(or 3/4 cup veg. oil)
  • 3 egg - (or a cup of apple sauce)
  • 1 cup caster sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups self-raising flour
  • 2 tbs poppy seeds
  • Tspn Vanilla extract (or the seeds from a Vanilla bean)
Method:

  • Preheat oven to 170C.
  • Grease and line an 18 cm cake pan or a loaf tin.
  • Puree whole orange in food processor.
  • Add melted butter, eggs, sugar and vanilla and mix well.

  • Bake for approximately 45 minutes or until cooked when tested.
Important note. Keep the skin on the oranges.

I usually make it in a Bundt Pan, but you can do it in any pan you like. Occasionally I have made it into cupcake size and frosted them with cream cheese frosting.

Here is a pic of one I have made in the past.

When I really want to treat myself, I like nothing better than a scrumptious, well-made pizza!

Step 1: Pick up phone
Step 2: Dial number
Step 3: Place order
Step 4: Wait 30-40 minutes

Serve with garlic bread and 1.25 litre Coke (if they have a voucher deal).

Bon appetit!

Home Made Cappuccino

Make coffee as you normally without milk...

For the milk place 1 tsp milk powder in a cup, then add 1/4 cup of normal milk & blend with a stick blender... Raise the blender up & down to get air into the mixture & after 10-15 seconds you will have nice frothy milk...

Pour this onto your coffee... & sprinkle with cocoa powder...

Chocolate, lemon, banana are the family favorites. Something with creme cheese does sound good. Would appreciate that Lemon Meringue recipe, sounds delicious.

I love cakes like this, not that rich icing over the cake stuff, but this! Dry and heavenly inside! I will def be making this

I did. It's under 'cous cous.'

sorry, I thought it was another recipe other than the one you posted. I am terrible with curries, but I admit it's because I don't make it often, many contain coconut milk and for some reason when I cook with it, it doesn't go down well with me. Funny, because I have no issue with it in a cocktail

You can make it into little cuppy-cake style portions too.Just reduce the cooking time to 20-25 mins.

FTR I also use the same base but just replace the oranges and poppy seeds for RIPE bananas and walnuts.
