They are about the only thing I remember making from a kid's cookery book - they were squares of cod wrapped in foil and that's about all I remember. They were rank.

Just for the record DaddyCool has been erroneously maligned on this thread following a case of mistaken identity

This is the book my mum got me when I was little. The cover is different but the inside is just the same. It's ace. One of the best cookbooks ever. I still use it now!

tomato soup?
stupids amounts of sweet things - cakes, sweets, desserts..

5inthebed · 29/06/2010 19:36

Fishfinger sandwich?
Ds1 has a cook book with said sandwich in it, complete with tomato sauce. Who doesn't know how to make one?

Is it the Anabel Karmel book that has recipes for sandwiches? I think I closed it permanently after I saw that.

As for the recipes in the Roald Dahl Revolting Recipes book. I get the feeling no-one has actually tested them. We certainly can't make them work...
