Strawberry Shortcake https://pinchofnom.com/recipes/strawberry-shortcake/ https://pinchofnom.com/recipes/strawberry-shortcake/#comments Fri, 18 Feb 2022 09:34:06 +0000   Afternoon tea, anyone?

Hints & Tips

You can serve these while the shortcakes are still slightly warm if preferred. Handle the dough as little as possible as over-handling may make the dough tough

Gorgeous fresh treat
Large enough to divide into 6 servings to reduce calories if you wish. Great to freeze too!

Another really easy to make recipe
I bake the shortcake and then freeze half before adding the filling, and they taste just as delicious when defrosted and filling added. 😋
Lovely and light and not over sweet. They are big and very filling so I cut into 6 or 8 smaller ones rather than only 4.

Hints & Tips

Below we added some of our communities most common hints and tips. We hope you find them useful.

The red split lentils used in this recipe are ones that you don’t need to soak first. This type cooks quickly so will save you time and will be more convenient to use than whole dried lentils. Season the soup after cooking, as cooking lentils with salt can toughen them.

If you don’t have fresh thyme and oregano, use 1⁄2 tsp each of dried thyme and oregano instead.

So easy to make
This soup is so easy to make with store cupboard ingredients. I used dried herbs and blitzed it a little.

Like tikka masala, Chicken Chasni isn’t actually an authentic Indian dish – it was invented in Glasgow! The delicious takeaway treat is a blend of sweet and savoury that fans of mango chutney will love. Our version is much lighter on sugar and oil, but still has the best elements of the original, resulting in a mild dish you can enjoy any night of the week. Prefer a spicier curry?Simply add chilli powder or chopped, fresh chilli!

If you don't have any lime juice you can use lemon instead. Use a chicken-style meat replacement and vegetable stock cube to make this dish vegetarian.

Tried the onion bhaji too......mmmm
Used some tomato puree to thicken it a little more
Beautiful dish just like from the Indian Takeaway
Added mushrooms and a small amount of cream to give it a creamier taste
Tasty fresh curry with a punchy fruit flavour
Adding some chilli to the dish will lift the flavours and bring the dish together.

Hints & Tips

Below we added some of our communities most common hints and tips. We hope you find them useful.

Chilling the burger patties means they are firmer and hold their shape while cooking. If you’d like the burgers with a lot more kick, use a full red chilli in the burger mixture.

These are so tasty and the spicy mayo is just 😋 served ours with wedges
Easy peasy!
The mayo left a lovely zing but if you prefer more spice, double the chipotle paste.
I decided to cook these in my air fryer for 10 minutes. Turned out fantastic. I was afraid that the burgers would break because of the way I cooked them but they stayed fine.
I had some left over fresh tuna so used this instead!
I didn't have fresh chillis so used dried!
