Mine is equal measures of buttermilk and mayo, and then double of Greek yogurt, half the juice of one lemon, two tbsp of dried Parmesan, a teaspoon of dill, garlic granules, Maldon seat salt, onion powder, and cracked black pepper.

Makes that amazing ranch dressing you get on the side of fried shit in America and is great for pizza crusts but you can also make kids eat ANYTHING dipped in it.

I’ve watched my kids enthusiastically eat celery, radishes and green peppers which aren’t normally things they will eat raw.

Marking place for when I'm not fasting and won't drool on the screen Grin

Following for inspo! I can cook but don't think I make anything out of the ordinary 😂

@Stella8686

I work in a kitchen and everyone loves my sausage rolls and they are ridiculously simple!

Butchers sausage meat (this is good quality) with sage and onion stuffing mix

Make a huge sausage roll on puff pastry cut individual slices

I make it quite thick and egg wash top and sprinkle with herbs and the finer crumbs from the sage and onion stuffing 🙂

Do you make the stuffing mix first or use it dry?

I'm making sausage rolls tomorrow for Bake Off and I'm going to try your recipe.

Mary Berry's fork biscuits. Well, they are her recipe really...

A couple of cubes of dark chocolate in a chilli is enough for people to ask me the recipe.

Bean dip which is just two tins of refried beans, one tub of cream cheese, one tub of sour cream and some taco/fajita seasoning. Mix together, cover with grated cheese and bake until it's bubbling. Use it warm as a dip for tortilla chips and try not to have a heart attack after eating it Wink.

My buttermilk biscuits - I grate in frozen butter for extra fluff

My brownies are notorious as are my peanut butter biscuits and I often get asked for the recipe for both. I’ll give you the latter Grin

260g crunchy peanut butter
220g caster sugar
1 egg

Mix, form into balls, squash lightly with a fork. Bake at 170 for 10. Do not touch till they’re cool.

My butter bean hummus is also pretty epic but I do it by eye and the beauty is it’s never the same twice.

Oh, I was really excited to see this thread...must go to bed now, but I look forward to more responses tomorrow!

I don't have any "secret" recipes.

Very similar to @Stella8686 but I mix the sausage meat with marmalade.

Gives it a tangy, slightly sticky flavour.

Fab idea for a thread OP ☺️😍

Burger sauce:
Equal parts ketchup, mayonnaise and yellow mustard. Mix it up with a finely diced gherkin. Very pleasant

Following for inspiration Grin
