About Me

My photo
I will attempt to update wartime recipes to modern tastes, in order to keep up with new trends, attitudes and approaches to food and it's preparation while still keeping a traditional British wartime feel to recipes. I will start by making recipes to the letter and move forward from there to encompass different modern diets. I will attempt to make meals first fit in to a popular diet plan and then will move on to Vegetarian/Vegan versions. So that everyone can enjoy British wartime recipes. This experiment is for my own amusement as well as to feel closer to my grandparents over the years they cooked and lived through hard times.

Tuna Surprise

This is a bit of a different fish recipe but very more-ish.

Ingredients:
2 x 185g cans of tuna drained
1 hard boiled egg chopped
37g stale breadcrumbs
Pinch of paprika
Pinch of nutmeg
Pinch of curry powder
1/2 tsp of mustard
2 tsps Worcester sauce
25g margarine
25g cornflour
1/2 pint of milk
Salt and pepper

Method:
Take a pie dish and spray lightly with oil. Melt Marg in a pan, stir in the cornflour. Take off heat and add the milk gradually, stirring as you go. Bring to the boil then lower the heat and cook for 3 minutes stirring all the time. Add all the other ingredients apart from the breadcrumbs. Pour into the pie dish and cover with the breadcrumbs. Bake in the oven at gas mark 5 for 20 minutes.
