We are looking for your best original recipes to add to the website. Do you have a recipe you would like photographing... Well I'm up for the challenge. I love food photography and want original recipes to photograph.

I am volunteering to cook and photograph your recipes for the website. You might have something handed down from a relative or something that you invented by accident (that's often the way I 'invent' recipes!). Whatever, feel free to post the recipe. Just post it as a new thread with the prefix 'Recipe' and tag it 'original recipe'.

If you have already posted an original recipe on the forum please point me to it!

I have one or two you can do please. I'm sure there are pictures of my grannie's vegetable lasagne somewhere but I can't find them.
I'll add the link in a minute.

My Christmas cake (no marzipan or icing, no alcohol bit no reason as to why you couldn't if you wanted to...) https://www.cookingbites.com/threads/homemade-christmas-cake.40/ I'll see if there are a few more pictures. I think I saw a better one on my oh Fb account so I might have one on the laptop which I'm not on now.

My mum used to cook it in a rectangular baking tray. It was my idea to use the bun tin. The general idea is to spread the mixture at the correct thickness to ensure that after cooking the inside is still soft(ish) whilst the outside is somewhat crispy. Obviously the oven temperature is critical also.

The quality of the accompanying onion gravy is paramount.
 
To add to this - I said best original recipes but that would include classic (generic) recipes with your 'twist' on them. Here for example is classic Cauliflower Cheese with my twist (I used broccoli instead of cauliflower and added crispy bacon). OK, it might not be that original but you get the idea:

Now that we are back from vacation, I will start cooking and posting recipes.
Excellent! You can of course photograph them yourself if you think the photos will look professional enough for the website. But I'm happy to cook up recipes and photograph them (with your permission). You would get full credit for the recipe, of course!

Whoever's photos work best. Since you want to cook them, I will attempt to make sure you can get the ingredients in the UK.
