Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Omelette Arnold Bennett

    • lkgrover on December 23, 2019

      Excellent creamy egg dish. I substituted smoked salmon for smoked haddock.

  • Chicken tikka masala

    • lkgrover on March 07, 2020

      Delicious British-Indian chicken dinner. I reduced the cayenne pepper to 1/8 tsp and the chile powder to 1/2 tsp, which resulted in my preferred heat level.

  • Steamed chicken with prunes and lemon sauce (Hindle wakes)

    • lkgrover on October 31, 2021

      I made this using a normal 3 1/2 pound chicken. It was fully cooked in 1 hour, according to my meat thermometer. Used 8 oz. prunes and 1/2 cup breadcrumbs. The chicken was moist with a slight lemon flavor. The prune stuffing is surprisingly good. And I enjoyed the author's story of the recipe's history.

  • Pork chops with cinnamon and apples

    • lkgrover on March 10, 2018

      A delicious pork chop recipe; the apple and cinnamon make it great comfort food for cold weather.

  • Creamed mushrooms on toast

    • nutrica6 on August 23, 2023

      used a mix of oyster and button mushrooms. so good on sourdough toast! served with baked beans and sausage for a riff on English breakfast. the lemon and sherry are key ingredients, and give it a more complex flavor
