Living out here in Spain, I really do know my omelettes!!! Personally I think
15mins is too much -better to turn it several times if you believe it's underdone. The
latest thing now is filled omelettes. Try making the usual potato one, but smaller.
Place on
plate and cover with... e.g. sliced cheese, boiled ham, slices of tomato, sweet red
pepper, a little lettuce and cover all with a spreading of (homemade) mayonnaise. I
include ALL the above!!! Top this with another
simple omelette of perhaps two eggs beaten with a bit of chorizo or ham- made pancake
style. Que aproveche! Enjoy!
ANSWER: Thanks very much for that, we certainly will try it out.
If it tastes good we'll do the recipe properly with pictures etc and give you a mention.
When you say "pancake style" do you mean very thin or using pancake ingredients?

Added cauliflower and some mushrooms, and with sliced green mango on the side.
Green/unripe mango is hard and soury-sweet, a bit like a green sour apple.

My mum is Spanish and moved back to Spain last year. This is the thing I miss most about
her cooking. As I couldn't get hold of my mum for the Spanish omelette recipe and method
I decided to copy this one. It didn't disappoint and I am eating it as I write!! I made
this with red pepper and diced chorizo with peas to give it a little colour. it tastes
and looks great! Thank you.

Perfect Spanish omelette but add a little chopped garlic, and maybe parsley instead
of/as well as peas? I think it's best to leave out the tomato.

2nd go, added white pudding/mushrooms with 1/2 a drop of chilly insanity sauce served
with pickled beetroot. Worth a try.

Add some chopped chorizo, a smattering of chilli or a dollop of salsa for a nice twist
on an old favourite.

Really truly lovely, I think it was the most successful cake I have ever made.

I love this banana cake recipe, but I find that one has to keep it in the oven for quite
a bit longer than 50 minutes. I sometimes add a bit of rum essence, very tasty!

This is one of my top recipes! Instead of walnuts (which I like but no-one else does). I
add luxury fruit mix and end up with cherries and pineapples, sultanas and raisins on
top of the bananas - very exotic! Also, I sometimes substitute up to half of the banana
weight with grated carrot because I love carrot cake too. Just gorgeous!!!!

I tried to make banana cake, the way i thought u made it so I used standard ingredients
for vicky sponge and whisked in 1 mashed banana as well. Took 40 minutes to cook but
tasted lovely. Next time i will try this way and let you all know the difference
...minus the walnuts ...eurgh yuk !!

I made this banana cake last week (and another is cooking in the oven now!) & loved it: so
moist & easy to make. I avoid recipes using oil as it never works out right so this is
perfect.

The recipe states that you use Demerara sugar if you wish, but this is a crunchy sugar,
rather than a soft brown sugar. Has anyone made it with the Demerara sugar, and, if so,
what were the results like?

This is really nice simple recipe that my 3 year old son enjoyed doing, although I must
admit we added raisins and white chocolate too. Yummy.

Lovely recipe - but I wish it was printable, without having to waste ink printing all
the stuff I don't need.
ANSWER: Your wish is our command! There is now a printer friendly
version. See the link to it at the top (nearly) right of the page. Other recipes will
also have this facility soon. Thanks very much for your helpful comments. Sue.

chocolate spread on when it's fresh out the oven. Many thanks :)

I like the use of oil in this banana cake recipe. I even replaced the 5oz butter with
hemp oil as it makes it healthier, it is very low in all the bad stuff and tastes
really nutty. I also used a sugar substitute for fewer calories, and replaced a quarter
of the flour with bran flour for
lower GI and more roughage. Added 5 mins to cooking time due to extra density of flour.

Awesome banana cake! First time I made it, just chucked it all together - came out moist
and delicious - eaten in a day......by 4 of us, not just me!

I have used this recipe over and over and it is consistently good. I play around with
the recipe too, (ie I use cinnamon and a bit of ginger, and I crush brazil nuts, and
finely chop some figs in. I also use organic flour and maybe because of the tin I use it
takes about one and a quarter hours to cook. Friends love it and so do my boys - thanks
for the recipe xx

The banana cake takes a lot longer to cook in my oven that stated, about an hour and a quarter
as suggested above. First time I've made it and it tastes delicious!

When I went shopping at the Whole Foods Market at High Street Kensington, I bought a
lovely banana cake made by a small family run business, called Respect Organics
But this cake was kept on a freezer. I
do make cakes at home, and thought I will try and make one banana cake at home. I liked
your recipe, and will try and make one. The only thing I did not like is the method of
preparation. I always use a blender,
which gives excellent results. Also I did not like the idea of using olive oil or
cooking oil. A good creamy butter will do. In my cake making I use whole meal brown
flour, and walnuts. This is very healthy. Many thanks |
