HELPFUL HINTS

EGGS.........
I am often asked if there is a way to stop the dark rim around the yolks of hard boiled eggs ?
All you need to do is place the eggs in salted cold water then bring to a gentle boil for 7 minutes , then pour off the hot water and place saucepan with eggs under cold running water .
To prevent discolouration of your saucepan when boiling eggs , add a tbs of vinegar or a slice of lemon to the water .

CREAM.......
To make whipped cream go further add a lightly beaten egg white before starting to whip .

CURRY TOO HOT ?
If you have over spiced your curry, ( too strong ) add some tomato sauce , 1 tbs of sugar and the juice of 1/2 a lemon .
Mix this well into your curry .

EVAPORATED MILK
Evaporated milk maybe used in place of egg when making hamburgers ..1 tbs : 500 gm of mince .

EGG REPLACEMENT
Mix cornflour and water together to form a paste in   place of egg prior to coating with breadcrumbs

BROAD BEANS
Adding a couple of mint leaves to the cooking process will enhance the flavour of the beans .
