Like the sound of your Monday JohnCrane, do you have a recipe?

JohnCrane · 29/09/2016 06:34

It's so good and loved by my DC.

I don't have an exact recipe but basically roast beetroots in their skins in tin foil until soft and the skins just slide off. Then blend with an egg a few tablespoons of flour and some milk. Sorry don't have measurements just do it by eye. Then fry like pancakes in a pan on a low heat (so they don't brown and stay lovely and pinky purple). Spinach and smoked salmon and maybe a dollop of creme fraiche in the middle and roll it up.

Kiki - How do you do your veggie chow mein? DD2 loves noodles and is always complaining that we don't have them often enough!

DeliveredByKiki · 04/10/2016 21:04

I tend to make it up as I got along with whatever is lurking at the bottom of the fridge but this recipe has a good sauce
