NEW YEAR 2024 BECKONS 🥂🍹🍰🍦🍩🍕🍟🍾🍨

Well here we go again, more 🥳 🎉 partying 🤪

AND OUR THINKING GOVERNMENT NOW SAY WE CAN NOW DRINK PINTS OF CHAMPAGNE 🍾 YIPPEE

More eating 😋 just more.

Clocks strike midnight 🔔 🛎 🎊 🔔 bells chime and the party 🥳 begins.

I like to take a step back here...

Easy food, a little juicy punch and quiet ⏲

I have already made a beef stew with onions 🌰 Shallots leeks garlic with beef cut into small cubes and Kevin 🤣 mushrooms new potatoes 🥔 peas, corn 🌽 beef stock cooked for a very long time in my Le Crueset cast iron cooker. Hardly needs any energy.

Freeze it into containers very economical.

Love sticky toffee pudding - prefer the variety made with bread and less dates:

Lovely Stew @TallTrees. I always follow my Mums recipe. Pretty much the same as yours.

Shin of beef and she used split peas to thicken. Delicious. Cooked gently for hours.

Interesting bread base @pgn

Don't know that one but love bread pudding.

I don't mind "no dates less dates" because raisins sultanas would do the job too.

@Cleoriff

The split pea is fantastic thickens and is wholesome food. 😊

The stew, occasionally with dumplings @TallTrees Even more delish

What's delicious with the beef stew is to bake a tearing sharing bread. Few cut chives for taste and topped with cheddar cheese then baked, served warm with the beef stew.

How tasty @Cleoriff

Definitely more and moreish 🤗

Dates can give the pudding a gritty texture, @TallTrees.

This recipe looks wonderful, although I am not so sure about using chopped dates in the actual sauce - see what you think:

That looks very edible @pgn

With dates or without no problem 😊

Medjool dates are very tasty the flavour is lovely.

What a brilliant recipe doesn’t look that difficult and the croissants are light too and a ready base.

Thanks for that.
