I came up with this idea. I want this thread to be about what your cooking.

My mum is a big time 'foodie' in NZ and she actually makes a bit of a living out of it.

What are you cooking? And do you have any secrets you want to share. Favourite utensils, spices & herbs etc.

No rules here.

I'm on a limited budget at the moment. So today I'm going to make an Egg Curry and Rice with potato's.

I'll use onions and butter and thicken it with flour and milk.

I've made this hundreds of times and it never fails.

^Sounds nice :)

My boys think I'm a good cook and say I should go on YouTube; Uncle Roger would definitely pick at my fried rice making skills, plus many others on different dishes. My kids don't go out enough, so all they basically know is my cooking :)

My son said after school what's for dinner, I said something to do with mince. An hour or so later I said I might make pasta, he was very pleased, so I said Na, since you want this I'm going to make something else in as mean as voice with a bit of humour in it - he knew I was joking!
If fat means flavour then I'm ******* delicious!

Betty's Hotpot
Serves 4

1 lb 'scrag end' or best end neck of lamb, cubed
1 1/2 lb potatoes, peeled and fairly thickly sliced
1 large onion, thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups water (or beef stock — my addition)
3 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tbsp of flour
1 bay leaf
1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
salt and pepper to taste
Brown the lamb in a heavy saucepan with 2 tablespoons of very hot oil over medium-high heat, then remove from the pan and set aside. In the same pan, add the sliced onions and fry until they begin to brown. Sprinkle flour into the pan with the onions and stir to soak up the fat. Turn off the heat and add the water (or beef stock) slowly while stirring vigorously to prevent lumps forming. Add a dash of Worcestershire Sauce; salt and pepper to taste. Then mix the onion, meat and stock together and stir in a bay leaf. To compose the hotpot, alternate layers of the meat and onion mixture with thinly sliced potatoes in an ovenproof dish. The top layer should be potato. Cover and bake at 325°F for 2-3 hours. Remove cover and continue to bake until the top layer of potato browns. Serve hot with traditional condiments such as chutney, pickled red cabbage or pickled onions.

I want to make Guacamole because avocados are cheap at the moment.

I made it once before but it didn't turn out very well because I didn't chop the onions and tomato finely.

I want to mash it all up into a fine paste with a lot of lemon juice.
