Domestic Goddess Rides Again...

[NoMercy]

Well, went to Mercadona and Carrefour without my shopping list.... again !

Hmmm, I thought, wheeling the trolley up and down the aisles... well, since this is a full shop, I need pretty much everything.

Well, I'm home now with 4 sachets of Saffron power, a little tub of fresh coriander, some yakult type drinks, a bottle of Tanqueray and some tonic water, 2 fresh limes, a bag of salted peanuts, and some ground ginger. I got a free Tanqueray glass with the bottle... but then I am a savvy shopper....

Any budding Ready, Steady, Cookers out there willing to make that little lot into a mouthwatering recipe?

[ummmm]

Are you mad?

I went shopping with a hangover once....just came back with loads of juice. So thirsty....so so thirsty...

[bobjugs12]

Going shopping when hungry is a night mare. I just come back from Tescos with enough snacks to feed an army, and none of the stuff I actually needed

[joggerjayne]

Tanqueray, tonic, limes ...

No, I think you did fine there, HB.

What is "saffron power" ?

[mccfluff]

peanut flavoured corriander and ginger infused martini's (assuming you have vermouth somewhere)

[NoMercy]

I haven't got much of an appetite today, but I'll probably have a G&T later. :-)

[rowanwitch]

have you any flour and eggs .... saffron and coriander flavour mini pancakes with a dip made from the peanuts, ginger and coriander whizzed up in a blender with lime juice washed down with lots of gin and tonic...

[NoMercy]

It's Saffron Molido, JJ. Strands of saffron (used in paellas and suchlike) which are ground down to a fine powder.

Fluffy... I don't do vermouth, unless making a fish pie.

[NoMercy]

Rowan.... you're a genius ! You cook... I'll pour...

[mccfluff]

ok i'll drink the martini's you can graze on the corriander.....

[AB Editor]

Tanqueray. Good choice.

Spare Ed

[rowanwitch]

Anymore challenges?

[NoMercy]

Well, I'm rather partial to Hendricks actually... but I thought 34 euros for a small bottle was exhorbitant.

But yes, I do love Tanqueray too. :-)

JJ's Ready Steady Cook recipe.

1. Spread the ingredients out on the kitchen table.

2. Gaze at them for a bit.

3. Put all of them (except the gin, tonic, limes) into a cupboard.

4. Order a take away.

5. Have a gin and tonic.

I've got one for you rowan
In my cupbaord I've got some paprika, mixed herbs and garlic salt. I've also got 8 Pot Noodles of various flavours, some cheese, a box of fruit and fibre and some coffee. What can I do out of that?

[joggerjayne]

bob ... see the previous post ... it's your only hope !

[NoMercy]

I quite like JJ's recipe, except there's no take away joints around here.

[bobjugs12]

I think you might be right JJ, chip supper tonight methinks

[mccfluff]

[NoMercy]

I'm surprised Craft isn't sniffing around my gin...

[NoMercy]

Fluffy... you live well !

J'adore hummus and pitta.
