Comfort food during a particularly Cr*p Winter.

Shepherds Pie, homemade with cheese melted on top, bottle of red

Liver and bacon, delicious.

I've no idea why Edna and Uncle haven't been snapped up. Macaroni cheese, favourite comfort food? Cheap dates.

Home made, with decent cheddar, a bit of cayenne & black pepper for a kick, and some crusty bread.

I'm hungry just thinking about that.

For a gourmet version try making it with stilton and apricots. For us carnivores Steak and anything but kidney pudding, Harveys Old and my mum's steamed chocolate pudding with layer apple at the bottom and custard.

To make it all feel better and happier. What is yours ?

I will go for Cauliflower Cheese topped with Crispy Bacon and potato chips with a good amount of Worcester Sauce.

Any decent recipes ?

This is SURELY the Winter of Beelzebub !

I'd agree except that the pedant in me says that it is WORCESTERSHIRE sauce.GGGrrrr...

Chicken madras, pilau rice, aloo gobi, keema naan, garlic naan and a few popodoms

This as well especially with lots of cheese.

Sounds like the love child of the cheese board and a triffle! (The first bit, far too sweet for my liking)

Nah. Soft winter so far, and I hope it continues. No snow, and not much chance of flooding here in Hove, lovely.

Risotto for me. Google butternut squash and chestnut risotto by Jamie Oliver, my favourite to date.

Good thread Uncle, strangely enough, I am cooking one of my favourite winter recipes as we speak. Flemish Beef Stew. various derivations online but its basically slow cooked chunks of Beef with onions, herbs and some good strength beer and slow cooked. delightful with mash and French Beans and Carrots.

Float a slice of mustard bread on the top 15 mins before serving.

Snapped up by who, you cheeky *******? What do you know?

If this thread was about your top choice for restaurant food, maybe people's answers would be different (mine would).

Ah then it would be a good prawn cocktail followed by a chicken Kiev. You tell him Edna.

Angel Delight. God knows why, I've never really liked it at any point in my life until the last few months, but now I'm doing a sachet pretty much every single day. Chocolate, strawberry, butterscotch, banana - whatever I can get my hands on I'll demolish in a couple of minutes. It's not even slightly wintry - or particularly nice for that matter. But that doesn't stop me driving to Asda at 11pm if I've run out.

Still, I've never done drugs or smoked and I only drink once every three or four weeks, so it all balances out.

I'd start taking drugs CB.
