Good Day Lena,

"Pizza roll" - Take a quantity of pizza dough (I make it in my bread-maker machine) and roll it into a square.

Topped with chopped, softened onion, thinly sliced mushrooms, grated strong cheddar and a pinch od mixed dried herbs

Roll like a Swiss Roll. Leave to rise for an hour. Bake at 200C/400F for 20 minutes or so.

Leave to cool. Chopped into chunky slices it makes easily portable packed lunches thst won't collapse if wrapped in clingfilm and shoved in your pocket.

I keep some in the freezer and pull it out when needed.

I also need to make a batch of Welsh Cakes (griddle scones) as my freezer supply of those has run out too

That sounds really yummy.

Change of filling for the pizza roll. I have some Chorizo that needs using up so that’s gone in it too. I hope it doesn’t burst when it cooks!

@Tortoise Police - this is a silly group where you can go and just be yourself, and get to know us all. Soon one of us will come by and clue in to who's here and what to expect.

Silly?
Silly?
Pah!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Maybe a potato cannon?

Yes, I think Ed, @ZEROPILOT has a potato canon.
Do you think we could borrow it for firing Leprechauns out of, Ed?

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Oohhh I like how you think.

Think?
Hmmmm.
Not sure I should go there.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

NOOOOOO! I quite like leprechauns. I'll take him with me if I ever leave this place. Promise.

I'd really rather you never left.
If you can be responsible for his good behaviour, I guess he can stay after he is released from the tank.
But I did so want to try out the potato canon idea.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I don't see how we could feed her. Most of us are out of school. @Lyn W, any chance you have spare homeworks?

Hmmmmm.
Did Lyn or anyone come back on this?

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Yes, sir! It'll be on my conscience. Just can't let a perfectly good--just fun-loving--leprechaun get shot from a cannon to the Moon... or to the CDR ceiling--whichever one is farther...

Ahem.
"Fun-loving", possibly.
"Perfectly good", not in a million years.
I don't think we have a moon in here, but who knows? There's no sun, so no moonlight as nothing to reflect so we couldn't see if we have a moon or two.
But one was rather hoping he's get caught in the Wool Spider's Web. (if it exists)

Good afternoon Adam. Nice to not see you popping in again!

I think @Lyn W is drowning in that homework. We really need that Canine after all!
Hi Adam!

American pancakes are much thicker than British pancakes... And South African ones it seems; another colonial inheritance

My dad used to make the pancake batter extremely thin, then when he put it into the hot oil in the pan the edges would bubble and turn very crisp. I LOVED his pancakes! The 'cake' part wasn't thick and cakey, but thin and very tasty, not doughy at all.

That I I make mine. Not so much thin but I love the oil and crispy edges!!

I am sure the Leprechaun is crazy enough to want to try it out himself....just saying!!

Me too.

Sounds like a pancake I would not mind trying.
