        very nice Looloo - if you got a Home Bargains shop near you (a bit like a Lidel/Aldi/B&M Bargains)......they also had Spiders, Witches [size=5](i think), as well not bad for £.69p to make

            £50 for a month! And when you think what some of those super-chefs charge at their posh restaurants! Come to that, the sort of ingredients they recommend using are hardly cheap.
            Think you should go on Masterchef - or better still, ask for your own programme - Budget Masterchef. Would fit in really well in the current economic climate!
            i have 6x portion of Lasagne in the freezer left

            Mince cost me: £2.00 2x 500g - Lidel
            White sauce cost me £1.90
            Lasagne sauce cost me £.90p
            Home Grown Garlic 0p (family)
            chopped Toms £.19p
            Lasagne Sheets £.24p (enough to make 2 trays worth)
            cheese 500g £2.00 (enough to make 2 trays worth)

            total cost: £7.23 (round it off as 10 quid for 16 portions

            15x slice garlic bread pieces £1.00 Farmfoods

            And i actually make 2 layer pasta lasagne

            Or Mix Broth Soup Bag £.89p Stock Veg 0p (as i always got stock cubes i think it cost me 89p or something for 12 cubes) Home grown Veg (family) 0p

            10 portions made out of the mix broth soup

            equates to a starter and a Main course

            all for £13.00
            2wks worth of meals (you can do Lasgne, Cottage pie, Beef & Stew, Chix curries, smoked sausage, pasta * Veg tomato sauce dish cost worth £3.00 2 days meal)....its since i became redundant that i went back to cooking large portions of meals to keep costs down..... ;Sh


            I;ll move post in a minute

              Re: Home made!

              Rostti or Rossti

              1x Spud
              2x Sprigs of Spring Onions
              3x Button Mushrooms
              (Can Add Garlic or Ginger if you want to)
              Oil
              Rock Salt & Crack Pepper Corn

              Cheese Grater
              Chefs Ring (a metallic ring cutter)

              Step 1: peel the Spud, dice the spring onions and mushrooms.

              Step 2: Cheese Grate the Spud *The Cheese grated side*, Then wrap the grated spud in a tea towel and 'Wring the starch from the grated spud' till all the starch drains out of the tea towel (DO this over the kitchen sink)

              Step 3: Lightly saute the mushroom and spring onions (add garlic or ginger if you wish)

              Step 4: Add the saute mushroom & Spring Onions to the grated Spud

              Step 5: Heat the frying pan then add a little Light Virgin Olive oil and followed by placing the chefs ring in the middle of the frying pan & Mix the above ingreds' together and 'COMPACT' in the chefs ring.....for about 5-8 mins then turn the ring over and do the same again (Or until the Rossti is brown golden colour)

              You can add cheese into the mix if you wish, or cooked off chicken and make a big rossti with it (depends on the size of the chef ring). others you can add to it instead of Ginger or Garlic, is Parikka, Lime Grass...easy to make as well as whatever you want to add to it really and its cheap to make....

                  Hiya Scorpio.

                  We had the Rossti for tea. I didn't have spring onions, so used 1 large onion, I also added grated cheese and a beaten egg to bind it together.......was scrummy with grilled sausages and fried eggs.....hubby really enjoyed his, and it was a cheap meal.!!
