Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Baked cod with romesco sauce and Greek potatoes

    • Nichill on November 15, 2020

      Very pleased we tried this. This way of cooking potatoes was new to us. We were surprised at the vast quantities of good olive oil, and of water, and of cooking time. It did work as described. I think the quantities are a little large all round. I made the romesco sauce with fresh tomatoes, and it wasn't red enough, and doesn't have any red pepper in. I would do the one from 1080 Recipes next time.

  • Chocolate and raspberry pudding cake with chocolate ganache

    • Kinhawaii on April 24, 2023

      This is delicious- the light fudgey cake is offset by the tart raspberries- yum! I didn’t do the ganache topping because it was already rich but would for a special occasion. I did have trouble with the timing & let it sit in the oven for a long time to firm up- even turned the oven back on. My oven is more unpredictable at lower temps. It is a tall cake & next time I may try a 9 inch pan. I thought it would smooth itself out but basically had almost the same appearance as when I put it in. I ended up putting it in the refrigerator to cool because the weather is humid & hot now -& ate it cold. It can be messy on the edges when cut. Sure has a lot of chocolate!

Bee Wilson in New Statesman
