[Quak]

The only on target thing for me today is a 2 hour walk with the dog - thank goodness it is Monday tomorrow, back to some sort of sensible eating..................I do love atkins and it is really good for me, just my willpower that is wubbish.
Water, water, need water - my glass is fed up of vodka.

Morning Steve.

How do you cook the bratties. I've tried frying, grilling etc but they do not taste the same as they did in Germany. I'm not saying they are not good but they don't taste as delicious.

 

[Steve S]

They're not at all the real thing, are they Jim?
I've found that just frying them in butter gives reasonable results.

I get all of my day's swearing out while I'm trying to cook the curved bits. They seem to delight in keeling over just as I think I've got them balanced. :cry:

 

[Jim]

They are mostly grilled in Germany, or were when I was a young squaddie over there, but yes frying them is the best I can achieve over here. I'm glad it's not just me then.

quak whats mim cereal?

Hi

In the MIM recipe thread there is something called cinnamon flaxmeal crackers which you can break into bits and use as cereal with cream on it - bit of an acquired taste - have tried it with cinnamon and cocoa powder at different times - basically just flaxmeal, cinnamon and water to make a ball of dough, you roll out between 2 sheets of baking paper, take one off and bake it then cool and break up. Simples.........
