Quick easy recipe for cheese and courgette souffle

Image
First ensure you have a nice hot oven and a clock to hand. Spread the gratings of a courgette over a plate and sprinkle with sea salt. Find four small dishes. These must be ones designed not to break in a hot oven. Take a little oil and use clean fingers to make this cover the inside of the dishes thinly. Not too much. Place a metal grater on a plate and grate a cupful of hard cheese. Find another plate and grate a cup of stale bread breadcrumbs. This is a good way of using bread that has gone hard but take care not to avoid any green mouldy bits. It doesn’t matter if the crumbs mix with the cheese a bit. Separate 3 fresh hens’ eggs. Take care to do this one by one in case you encounter a fertilized egg as you cannot cook with such a thing. Ensure no pieces of eggshell get in the opened egg. Beat the whites of the eggs in a copper bowl until they make little mountain peaks. You can use the same implement to aerate the yokes in a different bowl. Do not try this the other

Recipe for deliciously creamy seafood risotto

Image
1. The secret of this is to make a good fish stock, boiling up the bones, skin, heads and tails of a variety of fish and crustaceans together with chopped onion, a carrot, peppercorns and three bay leaves. Simmer for a few hours. 2. Take a large frying pan and warm a little peanut oil in it, adding a pinch of chilli powder. 3. Slice an onion into small cubes and fry slowly in the warm oil. 4. Add one clove of pressed garlic. 5. Add half a pound of short-grained rice. 6. Add a glass of dry white wine if you have any. 7. Fry on a higher heat until the wine and oil has been absorbed by the rice. The alcohol will evaporate in the process. 8. Strain and pour the warm fish stock into a jug. 9. Gradually add the stock to the rice, stirring continuously. Use as much stock as you need to keep the dish creamy without becoming either too wet or too dry. The rice should take about 20 minutes to cook through but count on it taking lon
