Nigella Lawson - Fried Chicken Sandwich

Fried Chicken Sandwich Recipe: Fried Chicken Sandwich Recipe Book: Nigella Lawson - Cook, Eat, Repeat. Link to recipe Review: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 OMG this is so unhealthy but SOOOOOOO good. I made this before I saw it on her new show. To be brutally honest I really didn't expect much from it, having made other burger style recipes...but! Honest to God this is amazing. It's not particularly quick or tidy to make but the taste truly makes up for this. I chose to make it with buttermilk as I always have a pot or two in my freezer for times like these. I also took myself off to the Filipino store down on Standish St in Burnley to locate some of the Chilli Crisp Oil, it's only £2.50 a jar there compared to £7.50 on Amazon! I didn't use the pink pickled onions but I did pick up a tin of Kimchi and I tried it. Pretty much made it as per recipe. For those with a deep fryer this should work fine. Aga Conversion: Used the pan on the boiling plate with a thermometer. Will I ma

Nigella Lawson - Old Fashioned Sandwich Loaf

This is the spot where I do the proving of the dough.                                         Review: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 In my opinion, this is THE best bread recipe I've ever had the chance to make, believe me I've tried loads of recipes for a loaf of bread and they have pretty much always failed me and ended up dense and dry. I was starting to believe that I just couldn't make bread.  This one however is bloody brilliant, so much so, my youngest son (18) pretty much eats almost a whole loaf in 24 hours! It's that good and OMG as toast...well, layer it up with butter....😛💗 My silver surfers (aka the in-laws) love it too, I'm expecting orders from them soon! 😆 Bread isn't the easiest to make as it's quite time consuming, but honestly, this recipe is worth it.  So far, since 8th November when I made the first one, I have made about 12 since. My last two loaves I made, I wrapped in greaseproof paper and then into thick good quality freezer bags and they froze and d

Nigel Slater / Nigella Lawson Pea & Garlic Soup

Pea & Garlic Soup Recipe Book: Nigel Slater's Real Food  Buy the book here  Review: Wow! Fab! 5 STARS all the way!! So tasty and very easy to make. So it would appear that Nigel is friends with Nigella and he has credited her for this recipe in his book. I went through my Nigella collection but can't seem to find this recipe in the books that I have so it must be one she has personally given to him.  It didn't take long at all to make this (if you exclude the hour roasting the garlic). I think I can safely say that both my husband and I are going to stink of garlic tomorrow. I really like that this soup just serves 2 so you can double up if more is needed. Honestly, when you look at this soup in the dish (creamy sage green kind of colour), you kind of think, what on earth is this? My husband said it smelled like mushy peas when he walked in the kitchen tonight, but I personally thought it smelled more of garlic, but then I have sat watching TV with roasting
