So, as we won't / can't go out for valentines day I've asked dp surreptitiously what his favourite 3 course meal would be. The answer: calamari, decent steak and chunky gastro style triple fried type chips and sticky toffee pudding with banana ice cream. Good steak I can do; sticky toffee pud I can do with my eyes shut. Banana ice cream I'm willing to have a go at. Calamari: not happening as I don't like and I just think it will be a faff (or am I wrong?)!Can anyone recommend an idiot proof recipe or recommend a ready made brand I can tart up somehow (M&S / Waitrose)? My main concern is having a pan of boiling oil and getting distracted. DD is v demanding at the moment so I just need something easy! I don't mind giving it a go but I've looked at a recipe and it looks like cook / freeze / fry / freeze / fry over several hours...
