hay everyone, as I've said before i want to be a chef so I was hoping that some of you might be able to give me a few recipes from the regions of the world that you live in, or some family recipes if you don't mind sharing them

thanks

I did make some Cornish Pasties last week. These are a classic British snack:

Use minced lamb (about 250g) - uncooked.
A couple of boiled potatoes cut into small pieces or mashed
EDIT: Onion - onion is vital!
You can put in other bits of leftover veg if you want.
I add Cayenne pepper (lots) and Paprika but then I add these to most things
Add black pepper too.

Mix this lot up in a bowl then make some pastry to about the same weight as your meat.

Divide the pastry into four equal-sized balls and roll them out in turn. With each ball add a quarter of the meat mix into the centre; wrap the pastry around and pinch it at the top so it looks like a bit like a Stegosaurus. Put your four pasties on a baking tray in the oven until the pastry is nice and brown and the meat is hopefully cooked. Serve hot or cold...

Note: I do this from instinct looking at my ingredients which i'm not doing now! So I may have missed something out. Neither I nor tzone take any responsibility for outbreaks of foodpoisoning

I love this!!! That should be b*a*l*l*s of pastry. The system substituted testicals - jings they can't even spell it, it's testicles. However this does not apply to pastry. B*a*l*l*s applies to pastry.

I wonder what would happen if I started talking about Ed Balls (Labour politician)?

Any recipes for pork f*ggot, Cass?

Edit: Wait, it censors b-to-the-alls but not f*ggot?
