About me
I'm a web developer/programmer by day and a foodie whenever my web severs allow me to be. My Family's from yorkshire so I naturally know how to make the british classics like roast beef and yorkshire puddings/Lancashire hot pot etc (the war of the roses is over Yorkshire and Lancashire people can talk to each other now). Despite being very British in my food tastes by mum has a distinctly French taste and as such my roast beef is always medium rare rather than the stereotypical dried out leather that some many British people demand. I just can't bring myself to destroy a good joint of meat. I'm an advocate of the slow food movement (anything ready in less than 3 hours is hardly worth it) or if it's fast it's gotta be really fast, hence my love of toasted pannini's. Great to be here amongst other foodies, this looks like a great community. Hi Everyone.

Thanks for being my foodie friend :) Your profile caught my eye and brought back wonderful Xmas memories - my step-mother's family is from England and every year we'd have standing rib roast with Yorkshire Pudding and Christmas Pudding. She's also from Michigan, so we'd have Tomato Pudding too. Such a pudding feast!

Hi, I agree, the indian fry bread is very much like Indain ( dots not feathers ) breads. I imagine it would be good stuffed, give it a shot and then post the results! = )

Hi Ang..thx for your comments & added notes on the old Steamed steak & kidney pud. yeh, mushrooms would go very well, Ive seen gary Rhodes do a good version of that with those nice big beefy mushrooms, I tried it out myself & it was pretty tasty, not quite a steak & kidney mind you.You cook in a rayburn, how lucky are you, something ive always wanted but never seemed to of got round to buying, I live in a typical country cottage & it wouldnt look out of place here. Nice to see another foodie from my side of the pond, I'll be keeping an eye out for some hearty recipes here..All the best..Bonzai..:-))

Delicious.....I smoke my own fish from the mess of fish the daughter's boyfriend shares with us. I love smoked fish spread and this is a great version.
