WellSEWell done kim I didn't see the curry book, will have a look next week. Anything good in there?

Oh n that cous cous Cake sounds fab. Think I'll be giving that a try!! xx

I was a bit dubious before I made them but they are lovely. You can make a topping with quark too.

If you just use a citrussy yoghurt you can put lemon zest in the quark. It makes it sort of cheesecakey!

Yeah Roo - you big chickpea lover you

Well am just eating a bit of the cous cous cake - slobbering actually past sore gob. It's nice but am quite put off by the fact that it smells exactly like playdough why oh why would I remember what bloody playdough smells like. Used the toffee yoghurt Magpie - could it be that? Still nice though.
Ready for chickpea recipe next please

 

[4magpies]

Could be the toffee. I use chocolate orange one. That is yummy. Think you just have to experiment a bit to find one you like.

Onion baghis

1 onion
spices (of your choice)
instant mash (made up with water very thick)
spinach (if you want you dont have to use this)

just fried some onions with spices (of your choice) in fry light
mix in some cooked spinach
make up mash very thick/stiff
mix mash & onion mixture together
make into little balls
put on a baking tray & spray with fry light
baked in the oven till nice & crispy
enjoy!

I know thats not an exact recipe but I never measure just make them how you fancy! Lol.

You can also make a dip:

just mix yoghurt mint sauce & abit of garlic and grated cucumber.

Lush! Great for snacking on when watching tele and syn free!
