Mac-Toon 1 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 When you bring it to the table, just remember to ask: "Who wants stuffing?" Her sister would love my sausage meat balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac-Toon 1 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 (edited) Or, much nicer http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/2182/chestnut-bacon-and-cranberry-stuffing Thanks, that looks good. Sure the fruit & veg man at the foot of Northumberland street has chestnuts; might have a trip tomorrow. I don't know why I agreed to this, I come from the Jackie Chan school of cooking; one chop & you're dead.

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 The more expensive the better, the principle of a stir fry is to cook on a high heat, very very quickly so you want top notch beef that is best when its red in the middle (not pink, pink is over-cooked). Best you can afford basically. Aye, three small bits of fillet for £6 so went for that. Kicking myself a bit though because I now remember you posted a lovely recipe a few weeks back that I was going to try. Have to remember to copy and paste it.

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I've consistently achieved decent results with a slab of rump. It's easy to find fairly lean rump steaks too. That was my second choice but the fillet at £6 looked a good bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 3997 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 A bit of help required here, if you'd be so kind. We're going to "the inlaws" for Christmas Dinner & for some reason I volunteered to make stuffing & pigs in blankets/devil on horseback. Do you have any easy recipes for the stuffing? Preferably one without sage in, as it's the work of the devil & can be overpowering. Thanks. This was fairly easy to make and is delicious. You can either do it as they describe or do it in your average takeaway type foil tin. http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/2182/chestnut-bacon-and-cranberry-stuffing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac-Toon 1 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I got the chesnuts from asda. Are they dear? Never bought them before, but if I know Asda; & I think I do, they'll have the price marked up with them being in season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 38682 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Can anyone recommend the best cut of steak for a stir fry? Have used fillet before but a tad pricey. Are sirloin, rump or some other able to create a similar melt in your mouth experience? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Dory then Tea was a great success. Fried the steak separately and added it as Chez mentioned, still bloody for the last minute. It was indeed melt in the mouth. That Wagamama sauce is lovely. Have to brave and try the Chilli one.

Jill 0 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Tuna pasta tonight. I could eat mountains of pasta, especially when I've been to the gym. Always make far too much of it (and pretend right up until the last mouthful that some of it will be left for tomorrow..) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
