    FantasyWitch's Kitchen :)

    I've started cooking loads and loads in the last few months and thought I would share some of the recipes I have come up with! They are great for skint folk like me because I make things with what is left in the fridge and cupboards.

    I make lots of soup so expect plenty of that Tonight I made a oriental mixed veg soup:

    Oriental Veg Soup

    YOU NEED:
    2 leeks
    2 onions
    3 green peppers (I used green, but use whatever there is)
    baby carrots
    sweetcorn
    chicken flavour noodles
    3x chicken stock cubes
    Soy Sauce
    1 Lime
    Coriander
    Garlic

    1. Chop up leek, peppers and onions. (not the baby carrots, they are fine as is)
    2. Toss all of the veggies into soup pot.
    3. Take out your noodles and break them up in the pot with the veggies.
    4. Break the first stock cube into 450ml of boiling water, mix and pour over the veggies.
    5. Repeat with second stock cube ^
    6. With the third stock cube add the noddles flavouring, garlic, coriander and 5 table spoons of soy sauce. Mix well until everything is dissolved and pour over veggies.
    7. Cut lime in half and squeeze juice into the soup.
    8. Turn on the heat and bring to the boil.
    9. Allow to boil for ten minutes, then turn down the heat and simmer until veggies are cooked and noodles soft. Stir occasionally.

    Ta Da. Oriental Noodle Soup
    And if all goes well it should look a wee bit like this:

    I really like how you use lime, it always brightens things up.

      It was a wild card I'll admit. I didn't know if it would work at all! x

              Made this one up yesterday after raiding the cupboards! Really nice and you can make it as spicy as you like

              Jamaican Jerk Sausages (Veggy version)

              Serves 2

              You Need:
              3 Quorn or Vegetarian Sausages (real ones if you want the meat version)
              1 small onion
              1 green pepper
              half an apple
              savoury rice
              Jamaican jerk mix

              1. Put rice on to boil in 450ml of water.

              2. Cut sausages diagonally, dice onion and apple, slice the green pepper.

              3. Fry sausages until almost cooked, then add onions, apple and pepper and fry until sausages are fully cooked and onions beginning to golden.

              4. Add the Jamaican Jerk and mix evenly, allow to cook for a further few minutes on a LOWER heat.

              5. Take off heat until rice is ready and then mix together with the rice (should only be a few minutes difference between the rice being ready and the jerk mix being ready).

              Serve!
