Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Superb!

I've still got too much cake to justify baking any more, so I'm going to make some biscuits tomorrow.

I made a carrot cake from a Nigel Slater recipe today, but used butter instead of oil (because I don't use seed oil, and oil in cake is (almost always) an abomination), and I reduced the sugar considerably, and used plain flour instead of SR, so had to increase the baking powder, and used about 25% brown flour. And I didn't separate the eggs and whisk the white separately, because that is just a waste of time and effort. And I added a few raisins instead of nuts. And extra cinnamon.

Then I cooked it in one tin rather than two, because I didn't want to stuff it with icing, so it baked for longer than he specified.

So now I'm wondering if I really did use Nigel Slater's recipe...

It was delicious, served warm with mascarpone, and beautifully light.

Just chop up a bar of dark chocolate if you can't get chips LG.

Sounds like my sort of baking jacdaw - more inspired by or based on than an actual recipe.

It's not that meringues are difficult Dave but time consuming.
