Recipes from my mother for my daughter (Lisa Faulkner) - link
Rating: 3/5
Comment: This was fine. However, it was very sweet, and the quantities seemed a little wrong. Checked it against recipe I've used a few times, and number of eggs in this one does not seem correct - for the same amounts of sugar and chocolate (both 175g), this recipe uses 4 eggs, while other one uses 6 eggs. I'm sure you could get away with 5, but 4 just isn't enough. Method also slightly different to normal - cover with foil rather than with a damp tea towel. (added some raspberries).
Use it again: No.
Nice recipes from this book: Banana cake, Toria's crispy marinated chicken, victoria's lasagne, scones, creme brulee, key lime pie, lamb mince curry.

123. Fish baked with potatoes (R Allen)
Rachel Allen- Easy Meals - link
Rating: 4.5/5
Comment: This surprised me - I'm not a huge fan of fish like cod,hake or haddock, but this made hake taste delicious. Diced potatoes and red onion with oil, roasted, and then the fish laid on top for the last 12-18 minutes. Added some cajun seasoning to the potatoes/onions for an extra bite - worked perfectly.
Use again? Yes.
Lovely Recipes from this book: Honey mustard pork chops,easy Lemon Cake, pork chops with apple and sage, tarragon chicken, beef pie.

Rating: 4/5
Comment: Yummy - great for using up soft bananas. Lovely sweet teacake. Uses a bit of honey and maple syrup. It needed 10 minutes longer in the oven than the recipe stated, but otherwise worked out well.
Use it again: Yes.
