Besides basics. Potatoes, fish, eggs and chicken. Ok so I'm running low on eggs already we bought 12 dozen so I can't figure it out except I have a son who likes to cook so he made 3 recipes w/out my knowledge from my cookbook, which took 2 doz eggs. Exclamation

Well atleast it as edible but don't ask me what it was. Twisted Evil

But anyone can you come up w/h a simple filling recipe for supper? I made for today shepards pie w/h chicken instead of meat. Kids and husband enjoyed it .... me well I saw what I put in.... Twisted Evil

I also made my own mayonaize from that cookbook only problem is, it flooooppped oh dear ......

From the S&S? It is a really good recipe and easy-or so I always thought-to make, exactly what went wrong? Now I just think back to those days before marrage when I could eat it and challish!

Oy. It happens to us all. Now if you only knew about the mishap that I had with my potato kugel. It is so crazy you wouldn't believe that such a story with so many mistakes and bad luck could happen to one kugel recipe.

OK. I am warning you it is long. To start with I have a pretty good food processor (if used correctly) that is inexpensive compaired to most and does a good job with blending but not good with slicing shredding. The disk is reversable and when on the shredding side it also slices a little from the sharpness of the mettle. It makes no sence but whatever. I like my potatoe kugel shredded and wanted to make it like that. Since I have the above problem I got creative one chanukah with my latkes(same brand processor for all year long as pesach) and figured out if I put it on the shredding side and tape up the slicing hole it works great. Smart no?!
I started making the recipe in a med. bowl I shredded the carrots and then the potatoes but the ends wouldn't go and got stuck above the disk. Great. Contined trying to grate. Oh no. I smell s/t buring. The food processor was stuffed and I didn't relize it. So I emtied it into the bowl. Too small. I ran to the other room where I had a big bowl that I really didn't want to make fleishig but bec of the rush I had to(didn't want the potatoes to turn brown). As I started to empty the contents of the food processer I noticed my contraption of tape was missing. Oh man!!! Well lets say that on Chanuka I tried it with clear tape that worked great and stuck but on Pesach I used masking tape. I had to then go fishing in the batter for the pieces of tape and found all but one. But since the potatoes were turning colors I decided to get on with it and hopefully no one will notice and eat a piece of tape. Then I took all the chunkes that wouldn't grate and tried blendeding them. The blade wouldn't turn. I thought maybe I put it in wrong so I emptied it and redid it. nothing doing. I think on my first time I used the procesor for this kugel it I burned the moter! I tried once more and BH it went but I smelled the motor was burning. So I finished making the kugel and it had shredded sliced and pureed potaoes all in one! Also I am left with a brand new processor used only once with a dying motor.

Could be I have the same one but when reversed should grate and not slice I haven't had that problem yet! Confused

I didn't find the tape yet. Either that or it tasted like kugel. I made it in 2 pans but only ate one so far. Did you ever hear of s/t so nuts?

Talking about mayonaise... Does anyone know if I can make it with olive oil? It doesnt specify which oil, but olive oil has a different taste.

I always make the mayo with olive oil. Don't use extra virgin olive oil; the mayo then comes out tasting too olive-y. I love using the extra virgin oil for salads and such, but for mayo, you don't want that strong taste. I used "light" olive oil this year, and it was perfect! Olive oil is healthier than the other oils you can use, too.
