    Hi NewYork44M

    Yes we too love cooking.

    Since my husband (Kaytee) retired, he really enjoys cooking and (trying!) to make bread and curries. His favourite is Dhansak, has anyone got a really good Dhansak recipe? I think we could open a book shop with the amount of recipe books he has bought recently. - he usually tends to "adapt" the recipe in some way, that way, if it's a disaster, it's because he didn't use exactly the right ingredients, if its a success, its because he adapted it

    I've just made a very healthy and hearty leek and potato soup, so easy, and yet so tasty. Really good with a few big chunks of crusty bread.

    He does a really good, lime cheesecake, I may be able to twist his arm for the secret recipe.

    While I love Indian food and lamb, I have never attempted cooking. Here is a recipe Dhansak that looks interesting:

    I haven't cooked lamb in a long time, but I love roasted lamb. I do a "hunters style", a few herbs, salt, pepper, potatos, carrots, onions, celery, mushrooms and stick in the oven for a few hours.
