"Harmless dessert, not that inspiring but pleasant enough. Went well with cream, custard and creme fraiche."

Spiced root soup with crisp spiced onions

"Seriously good soup! I used a small pumpkin/squash, 1 leek, 1 parsnip, along with recommended ingredients, and low fat yoghurt. Added extra stock as soup was very thick. Made 6 good portions. Didn't bother with topping. "

Date, banana & rum loaf

"Couldn't wait to make this cake as so much had been written about it. What a lot of whizzing, mixing and whisking and what a lot of washing up! I took the opportunity to use up various packets of dried fruit: lots of sultanas, some dried prunes and even some Craisins (dried cranberries), I used flakes almonds both inside and on the top of the cake and I used orange juice instead of rum. My cake cooked fine but took at least 15mins longer than the recipe stated. The outcome is a moist, crumbly cake which is rather sweet, perhaps if I had used pecans or walnuts it might be less sweet.

"Didn't need any extra curry paste. I added 100ml coconut milk near end of cooking as I found it was drying up and we like coconut milk, it worked very well."

"Very easy to make. I used frozen spinach which worked fine."
