About me: Hello! Living in London with my husband and cat, I have only just become more interested in cooking over the last few years, especially as I became more and more dismayed by my inability to return the favour of cooking for family and friends, which is now something I love to do even though it still sometimes makes me nervous. I wasn't really taught how to cook when I was young so I've had to teach myself which I've been doing with the help of the Good Food and Food Network channels along with my growing collection of cook books. My favourite, "teachers," in the kitchen have been Nigella Lawson and Jamie Oliver, though I love watching cookery programmes in general and find just reading through cook books to be a great source of comfort. I'm really pleased to have stumbled upon this website as it has the potential to be a great resource and is exactly what I was wishing and looking for with regards to a simple way of keeping track of recipes I've tried.

Favorite cookbook: Ministry of Food by Jamie Oliver

Favorite recipe: pot-roast meatloaf from Ministry of Food

I have to admit straight up here, I ended up not making 'fishcakes' out of this as the mix didn't bind enough for me to be able to form any semblance of patties without it falling apart. HOWEVER, I am still giving the recipe four stars as when I mixed it with vegan mayonnaise (using the recipe from Forks Over Knives - see separate review), it made the perfect chickpea tuna! I actually found it hard to stop eating and it was perfect for lunch on a bagel. I only used one nori sheet instead of the four the recipe specified, mainly because my hands were getting tired from snipping it, but in my opinion, one sheet was enough. Really delicious!
