“That’s gorgeous! Can I have the recipe?”
“What recipe? It’s all up here!”

Anyone who knows me knows that “what are you cooking?” is a redundant question, as often I myself don’t know until it’s done. “Let’s eat it first, name it after!”

That said, sometimes I do follow recipes and come up with those of my own to ensure consistency across the menu or simply to remember the dishes I’ve come up with.

With that in mind, do you remember eating something I’ve prepared and would love to know how it’s done?

I have already added some of people’s favourites, and while I’ve tried to include exact amounts, often I just work in “handfuls”, “a bit”s, and the occasional “a bit more”. Working in proportions rather than specific amounts usually yields better results more quickly for many things. One example would be seeing in the ingredients list “1 onion”… I mean, really? At any given time I could line up 6 onions in my working kitchen and have all different sizes ranging from ping pong ball to small melon! They vary so much in strength, too!

The same goes for cooking times. Trainee’s and commis chef’s most often asked questions (aside from “when’s break time?”) are “How much” and “how long does it go in the oven for?” to which the answers are invariably and respectively “about that” and “until it’s done!”

Many recipes may be drafted out quickly, and even I am not sure of the exact amounts, and wouldn’t want to accidentally mislead anyone into creating a pile of mush. A basic understanding of cooking, is assumed, anything that is unclear just ask and I will try to clarify.

Please leave a comment below, or send me a message and I will try to get the recipe put together on here.
