From Helen - Ready, Steady, Cook!

6/4/2020

4 Comments

 
It's so busy being on lockdown it's untrue!
One of the things I've been doing with my extended family is a version of "Ready, Steady, Cook" using Viber and a newly created website :D
The rules we've set are:
  • Each week five family members nominated by my niece, Ruth, will name one ingredient for use in that week.
  • A dish has to be created with at least 2 of the 5 named ingredients.
  • Any store cupboard/fridge ingredients can be used.
  • Thinking and prep can be done during the week.
  • A photograph of the resulting dish is posted to our Viber group with the recipe by noon Sunday
We have just finished the first week: our ingredients were: Lentils, Sweet potato, Courgette, Olives, Cheese.
I made roasted vegetables en croute, John did a lentil, courgette and sweet potato daal. Both were very tasty. The dishes made by the others also looked fab.
This week we have as our ingredients: Potato, Eggs, Butternut squash, Tuna, Lemon.
It's been gread fun and has stimulated lively badinage in the group!
We have relatives young and old contributing from England (N.E. and S.E, no one's inbetween), Ireland, Scotland, Portugal and New Zealand. ... It's not just Covid-19 that can be worldwide!
