Does anyone have her chocolate/orange self saucing pud from her book!Someone has borrowed my book.

Jax is no chef she is a cook. If she calls her self a chef i will put her in my cafe and then she will realize she is just a cook

Was that necessary!
A lot of us are not chefs, but appreciate experimenting with flavours etc.
I don't give a rats about whether a 'chef' or a 'cook' prepares my meal/snack in a café, as long as it's quality, flavoursome & value for money.

If you have facebook, just ask on there. They usually respond pretty quickly :) I had a similar thing with the chorizo and potato salad

I'd sooner have a meal made by a cook than a chef any day.

Agreed .stuff I remember my Nan making, reappears with a new name & it's suddenly the 'newest' foodie trend & soooo fashionable.reminds me of the saying 'there's nothing new under the sun' etc.
